The 9th Dutch national symposium on software engineering (SEN) will be held on Friday, 2nd June 2023. At this conference, we bring together the Dutch software engineering community.

The symposium is organized by VERSEN, the Dutch National Association for Software Engineering. 

Submission Guidelines

We invite all software engineering researchers in the Netherlands to contribute to the symposium program. We welcome proposals for “lightning talks” - short but engaging presentations, to be allocated between 5 and 10 minutes at the symposium.

There is no specific format for lightning talks. Still, they should be aimed to the broad VERSEN audience. An exciting lightning talk may, for instance:

• describe recently published results;
• present open research problems (and/or ongoing efforts to tackle them);
• summarize a recently concluded PhD dissertation;
• Summarize bachelor/master thesis you are working on;
• recently granted (or started) research projects;
• motivate a “call to arms” for the broad VERSEN community.

There will be a (lightweight) evaluation of one-page talk proposals (PDF) describing the envisioned presentation at the symposium.
