WETSEB2020 is a workshop of ICSE 2020, held in Seoul, South Korea, May 2020.

The WETSEB2020 workshop’s goal is to discuss on the progresses and on open problems in the ongoing research and on the application of Software Engineering to Blockchain Software Systems, gathering together practitioners and researchers from academia and form industry. This concerns the blockchain technology, the smart contracts software, the integration between blockchain and external components, such as interfaces and Dapps, and all the technologies relying on it. The workshop calls researches on modelling languages, domain specific languages, tools, paradigms, principles, approaches to deal with the new challenges posed by Blockchain technology to software engineers and for a specific Blockchain Oriented Software Engineering. This year we also solicit contributions on Early Research Achievements (ERA) from Ph.D. students and young researcher on the field.
