IEEE Transactions on Software Enginneering

http://computer.org/tse/

The IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering is an archival journal
published monthly. We are interested in well-defined theoretical results
and empirical studies that have potential impact on the construction,
analysis, or management of software. The scope of this Transactions ranges
from the mechanisms through the development of principles to the
application of those principles to specific environments. Since the
journal is archival, it is assumed that the ideas presented are important,
have been well analyzed, and/or empirically validated and are of value to
the software engineering research or practitioner community. Specific
topic areas include: a)  development and maintenance methods and models,
e.g., techniques and principles for the specification, design, and
implementation of software systems, including notations and process
models; b)  assessment methods, e.g., software tests and validation,
reliability models, test and diagnosis procedures, software redundancy and
design for error control, and the measurements and evaluation of various
aspects of the process and product;  c) software project management, e.g.,
productivity factors, cost models, schedule and organizational issues,
standards; d)  tools and environments, e.g., specific tools, integrated
tool environments including the associated architectures, databases, and
parallel and distributed processing issues; e)  system issues, e.g.,
hardware-software trade-off; and f) state-of-the-art surveys that provide
a synthesis and comprehensive review of the historical development of one
particular area of interest. 

The full text of TSE is online as part of the CS Digital Library open
trial period. Access will be limited to CS members later in the year, and
to online TSE subscribers in 1998.  Articles are available as PRF files.
