Overview
Requirements Engineering and Software Testing Mini-Conference (REST), is the rebranded version of the Postgraduate Research Workshop (PRW), which has been held annually as one of SOFTEC’s satellite events since 2012. Through REST@SOFTECAsia 2019, submission of research papers will be expanded to researchers in general including both academics and postgraduates as well as practitioners.
REST aims to bring together RE and ST researchers to exchange and disseminate research findings along with real-world experiences in a supportive environment. It also provides a constructive interdisciplinary platform for practitioners to keep abreast of recent innovations as well as practical solutions for RE and ST challenges.
