16th EuroSPI Conference Conference European Systems and Software Process Improvement and Innovation 2.-4. September 2009 University of Alcala, Madrid Region, Spain http://2009.eurospi.net/
1. Conference Theme -------------------
EuroSPI is unique in the way it brings both communities, researchers and industry, together. It is also unique in the way that we produce two proceedings, research papers with Springer and industry/experience papers with Wiley.Thus researchers are asked to write scientific papers with a practical background which could be re-used in industry. Thus industry experts are asked to write experience / industry papers With a vision which could fruitfully push the ideas of researchers again.This background corresponds with the theme as follows: - "Experiences with the Implementation": It is not enough to describe a new method or idea. We need proof or case studies that the method worked. - "Improvement and Innovation ": The applied methods and techniques shall have a focus on innovating and improving processes and products. - "Related Benefits in the Organisation": The papers shall outline the measured / analysed benefit for the organisation.
2. Conference Topics -------------------- Assessment and Process Models ISO 15504 IEC 61508 ISO 15288 ITIL Agile Development Global Software Development Outsourcing Strategies Experiences in Branches Automotive Finance Medical Software Development Improvement Case Studies Implementing SPICE Implementing Safety Requirements Management Testing Design Knowledge Management Team Learning Measurement Configuration Management Risk Management Requirements Elicitation
3. Programme Committees ----------------------- EuroSPI has an industry and a scientific programme committee. Both committees are formed by more than 70 well known industry experts and researchers from 18 different countries. Each contribution is peer reviewed by at least two different experts. The conference has been recognised by world wide known scientific publishers: 18 selected research papers are published in the Springer CCIS (Communications in Computer and Information Science) series. The programme committees are published on the web site: http://2009.eurospi.net
4. Who Should Attend -------------------- Quality Manager Improvement Manager Researcher Project Manager Innovation Manager Experienced Practitioner Business Manager

JOINTLY DISSEMINATING THESE PRINCIPLES TO THE INDUSTRY AND RESEARCH COMMUNITIES.
We will invite key experts world wide to participate and to establish a first manifesto. In future a world wide forum of recognised SPI experts will build and maintain a body of knowledge in SPI. www.iscn.com/conferences/eurospi2009/program/spimanifestocall_v1.zip
10. Related EU Initiatives --------------------------
EuroSPI also established an umbrella initiative for establishing a European Qualification Network in which different SPINs and national initiatives join mutually beneficial collaborations (EU Cert - EU Life Long Learning Project, 2008 - 2010).
In collaboration with the European Union (supported by the EU LLP Programme) a European certification association has been created for the IT and services sector to offer SPI knowledge and certificates to industry, establishing close knowledge transfer links between research and industry.
With the support of the E-Learning manager project (2008 =96 2010) an infrastructure for online learning has been set up for European professions related with SPI.
