The SEIP track focuses on the same topics and values the same rigor as ICSE's research track, yet papers featured in the SEIP track are distinct. What sets the SEIP track apart is that it values impact and realism over novelty. We expect that findings from SEIP publications have the potential to impact practice in the 0-2 year range. Key reviewing criteria are listed below. Note that not all criteria are appropriate for every submission - e.g., improvement on the state-of-the-practice may be irrelevant for an experience report - and that we will adjust criteria to fit the given type of submission. 1. Relevance to ICSE SEIP audience The core concepts of the work either originate in research, either at ICSE or a related conference, or are novel ICSE-appropriate topics. 2. Improvement on the state-of-the-practice The amount of improvement that the work achieves above and beyond the state-of-the-practice. 3. Impact of tech transfer activity The scale of the impact (e.g., individual vs team vs several teams) of the tech transfer work (only relevant for tech transfer activities). 4. Generality of results The probability that the work, approach, or lessons learned are applicable to developers outside of the studied group. 5. Clarity of lessons learned The clarity in which the lessons learned are presented and how well they are supported with data and discussion. 6. Overall quality of the manuscript While we intentionally do not limit submissions to certain categories, we do encourage potential authors to view ICSE SEIP 2016 list of papers for examples of appropriate submissions.
