AIMS AND SCOPE

Information and Software Technology is the international technical journal
covering software development. It bridges the gap between the theories of
software engineering and the application of information technology within
organizations. The journal covers the entire area of information
processing, from state-of-the-art research, through software development
and implementation, to information systems management.

Papers published in the journal are drawn from current developments in
areas such as:

  empirical and experimental analyses. 

  software metrics. 

  software processes and development methods. 

  project management. 

  quality control and standards. 

  object orientation. 

  concurrency. 

  human factors. 

  testing. 

  implementation techniques. 

  database design. 

  information systems. 

The journal focuses on international research on software development and
its application in industry; discusses techniques for tailoring software
and information systems for institutional, industrial, and commercial use; 
explains in depth the techniques that produce more efficient and reliable
systems and emphasizes the use of proper methodologies and formal
practices to improve software productivity.
