Abstract

Software has evolved from tools and appliances to a driving force of innovations in economy and society. Software advances and stimulates society by providing and enabling, e.g., ubiquitous communication channels, efficient development of medication, flexible materials, energy efficient automobiles, autonomous robots, intelligent resource management, earth-quake-proof buildings, and smart cyber-physical systems. Software as the subject of software engineering has become a significant innovator. The demand for software is growing in projects of all industries and so is its complexity. Resulting challenges can only be met by adapted education possibilities and innovative software engineering methods. The Software Engineering 2013 Conference fostered the discussion of industrial experience on novel engineering methods and software solutions from various fields. The event promoted communication between research and practice, between academia and industry, and among individual software engineers. Good communication is a necessity for maintaining and strengthening competitiveness in industry and academia.
