《信息與軟件技術》是一本國際檔案期刊，專注于有助于改進軟件開發實踐的研究和經驗。該雜志的范圍包括更好地設計軟件和管理其開發的方法和技術。提交審查的文章應該有一個軟件工程的清晰組成部分，或者討論如何改進軟件開發的工程和管理。期刊涵蓋的領域包括：?軟件管理、質量和度量?軟件過程?軟件架構、建模、規范、設計和編程?功能和非功能軟件需求?軟件測試、驗證和確認?工程和管理軟件開發各方面的實證研究短訊是一個新的部分，專門處理新的想法，有爭議的意見，負面的結果和更多的短文。閱讀作者指南了解更多信息。該期刊鼓勵并歡迎在該期刊范圍內提交系統的文獻研究（評論和地圖）。信息與軟件技術是軟件工程系統文獻研究的首要出口。這里提供了進行系統審查的指導方針。特殊問題和特殊章節建議如需提交一份特別期刊（期刊范圍內某一主題的原始稿件）或一份特別章節（期刊范圍內研討會的擴展論文），請聯系特別內容編輯C.Wohlin教授（claes.wollin@bth.se）。

Information and Software Technology is the international archival journal focusing on research and experience that contributes to the improvement of software development practices. The journal's scope includes methods and techniques to better engineer software and manage its development. Articles submitted for review should have a clear component of software engineering or address ways to improve the engineering and management of software development. Areas covered by the journal include:? Software management, quality and metrics, ? Software processes, ? Software architecture, modelling, specification, design and programming? Functional and non-functional software requirements ? Software testing and verification & validation ? Empirical studies of all aspects of engineering and managing software developmentShort Communications is a new section dedicated to short papers addressing new ideas, controversial opinions, "Negative" results and much more. Read the Guide for authors for more information.The journal encourages and welcomes submissions of systematic literature studies (reviews and maps) within the scope of the journal. Information and Software Technology is the premiere outlet for systematic literature studies in software engineering. Guidelines for conducting systematic reviews are provided here.Special Issues and Special Sections proposalsTo submit a proposal for a special issue (original contributions on a topic within the scope of the journal) or a special section with extended papers from a conference of workshop within the scope of the journal, please contact the Special Content Editor, Prof. C. Wohlin (claes.wohlin@bth.se).
