The 25th annual International Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering (ISSRE 2014) is focused on innovative techniques and tools for assessing, predicting, and improving the reliability, safety, and security of software products. ISSRE also emphasizes industrial relevance, rigorous empirical studies and experience reports.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Reliability, availability, and safety of software systems

* Verification and validation

* Software quality

* Software security

* Fault tolerance, survivability, and resilience of software systems

* Dependability, survivability, and resilience of software systems

* Systems (hardware + software) reliability engineering

* Services reliability engineering (cloud services, problem reporting services, etc.)

* Metrics and measurements, estimation, prediction of quality/reliability

* Supporting tools and automation

* Industry best practices

* Software at large scales and software on small devices

The main research track at ISSRE 2014 is soliciting original, unpublished research papers in three categories: (1) full research (regular) papers, (2) practical experience reports, and (3) wild and provocative ideas (WAPI) papers.

This year we are soliciting papers in a new track called ``Wild and Provocative Ideas'' (WAPI). These are short papers and the accepted papers will get 15 minute presentation + 15 minutes Q&A slots. The aim of these papers is to promote revolutionary and way-out ideas that do not fit the conventional mold, that inspire discussion among conference attendees, and that get people thinking of open research challenges. Research that incrementally improves on prior work is not suited for this category. Unlike an ISSRE research manuscript that explores a specific technology problem and proposes a complete solution to it, with extensive experimental results, a WAPI paper will present less developed but highly innovative ideas related to areas relevant to ISSRE.

There will be a best paper award given to a paper in this main research track.

Manuscript page lengths (All in double column, IEEE conference style format):

* Research papers: 10 pages + 2 pages for references

* Experience reports: 10 pages + 2 pages for references (the 10 page limit should allow for material such as detailed description of testbed, datasets, specification documents, etc. in the submission)

* WAPI papers: 3 pages + 2 pages for references
