REFSQ 2023
Mon 17 - Thu 20 April 2023 Barcelona, Spain

The REFSQ Working Conferences provide a forum for exchanging innovative ideas and approaches to successful requirements engineering among researchers and professionals. The workshop program aims to enrich this forum with events focused on specific areas of RE. A workshop should provide benefits to the RE community along one or more of the following dimensions: innovativeness of the area, high potential for involving both industrial and research actors, influence on industrial practice, or addressing novel trends in software engineering at large.

Accepted Workshops


NLP4RE: 6th Workshop on Natural Language Processing for Requirements Engineering

The rapid progress of natural language processing (NLP), demonstrated by the recent breakthrough of ChatGPT, necessitates new perspectives on incorporating NLP within diverse requirements engineering (RE) activities. NLP4RE has taken up the mission of advancing the current state of the art in applying NLP for solving and providing automated support in RE.

Join us in the 6th edition of our NLP4RE workshop to learn more about the close relation between NLP and RE.

Organization: Sallam Abualhaija, Andreas Vogelsang, Gouri Deshpande

ViVA RE!: 1st Workshop on Virtues and Values in Requirements Engineering

Join us in the ethics workshop ViVaRE! and use an innovative visual modeling approach to discuss ChatGPT, Proctoring, Finances and their ethical dilemmas with the Square of Values.

Square of Values is a visual modeling approach for identifying ethical design alternatives in systems development. It will be introduced and applied in case studies during the workshop. Case study materials will be supplied. After this half-day workshop you will be invited as a co-author to write an experience report about using the Square of Values.

Organization: Alexander Rachmann, Jens Gulden
