For Authors

The main goal of SQAMIA workshop series is to provide a forum for presentation, discussion, and dissemination of the scientific findings in the area of software quality, and the establishment and improvement of interaction and cooperation between scientists and young researchers from the region and beyond. It is organized by SQAMIA Initiative and the workshop especially welcomes position papers, papers describing the work-in-progress, tool demonstration papers, technical reports or other papers that would provoke discussions.

SQAMIA 2026 is the 13th workshop in the series and a continuation of the successful events held in previous years. This years' theme is targeting software and information system continuous improvement, based on informed decisions, and automated IS delivery.

We invite authors to focus special emphasis on specialised disciplines, e.g. cyber-security, safety, reliable AI etc., extending industry-proven DevOps approaches (e.g. DevSecOps, MLOps, DataOps, BizDevOps etc.).

Zoran Budimac Best Paper Award

At the SQAMIA 2026 workshop, Zoran Budimac Award for the Best Paper will be presented in honour of Professor Zoran Budimac, the initiator and longtime driving force behind the workshop, who embodied a spirit of innovation and dedication to advancing the field.

The award is intended for the best paper authored or co-authored and presented by a young researcher (i.e., the first author should not yet hold a PhD). This tradition reflects the enduring spirit of SQAMIA, which has always placed strong emphasis on encouraging and supporting young researchers.
