I. AIM AND SCOPE

**************

Recently there has been an increasing demand for complex systems in distributed and mobile environments. The development of these complex software systems is challenging in order to deal with dynamic, imprecise and uncertain information and environments. In the recent years, an emerging paradigm focuses on the investigation and integration of computational intelligence in current software development practices to address the growing complexity of software systems and improving their robustness. This emerging paradigm uses various techniques from the computational intelligence literature (e.g., Knowledge-transfer and data-driven search, fuzzy logic, machine learning, evolutionary computation, etc.) to address problems related to requirements engineering, services computing, cloud computing, Internet of Things (IoT), quality of services, software testing, model-driven engineering, etc. The goal of this special issue is to understand the cost/benefit of combining and using several novel computational intelligence techniques to address software engineering and services computing problems.

II. THEMES

**************

In this special issue, we will invite papers that address problems in the software engineering and services computing domains through the use of computational intelligence techniques. We particularly encourage papers demonstrating novel computational intelligence strategies to new problems in software engineering and services computing such as software testing, IoT, quality of services, cloud computing, etc. Applications may be drawn by investigating the usage of computational intelligence techniques for the automation of all phases of the software development process, including the analysis, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance of large software systems. Specific topics may include the application of computational intelligence to the following areas:

-) Social computing

-) Brain computer interface

-) Computational neuroscience for software engineering and services computing

-) Knowledge-transfer and data-driven search

-) Search-based software engineering

-) Data mining for software engineering

-) Component-based systems

-) Empirical software engineering

-) Human-computer interaction

-) Knowledge acquisition and management

-) Maintenance and evolution

-) Deployment and configuration management

-) Software testing, verification, and validation

-) Product line engineering

-) Model-driven engineering

-) Refactoring and program understanding

-) Neurocomputing in software engineering

-) Computational intelligence for Internet-of-Things

-) Computational intelligence for cloud computing

III. SUBMISSIONS

**************

Manuscripts should be prepared according to the “Information for Authors” section of the journal found at http://cis.ieee.org/ieee-transactions-on-emerging-topics-in-computational-in... and submissions should be done through the journal submission website: https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tetci-ieee, by selecting the Manuscript Type of “CI-SE Special Issue Papers” and clearly marking “Computational Intelligence for Software Engineering and Services Computing Special Issue Paper” as comments to the Editor-in-Chief. Submitted papers will be reviewed by at least three different expert reviewers. Submission of a manuscript implies that it is the authors’ original unpublished work and is not being submitted for possible publication elsewhere.
