## Call for papers

The programme committee welcome high quality contributions to the conference on the following topics: The application of assessment based improvement to agile development; The definition and implementation of flexible and agile processes; Model based improvement; Determination of risk, based on results of process assessment; Knowledge and skills for process assessment and improvement; Assessment approaches applied to agile development; Lean process improvement; Definition of process quality characteristics to support process improvement; Empirical studies on characteristics of high maturity organizations; Processes and process models applicable to integrated management systems; Emerging process reference and assessment models; New concepts for process capability and maturity models; Use of process assessment in domains outside software, systems engineering and service management; Conformity assessment approaches and schemes for process assessment; New measurement and rating frameworks; The role of situational context in process definition, adaptation and assessment. The breadth of the application of the standardised approach to process assessment remains a topic of considerable interest, from both a practical and theoretical perspective; and so, accordingly, the SPICE 2017 Conference seeks contributions specifically relating to the following areas of application: Software, systems engineering and service management; Automotive systems and software; Aerospace systems and software; Medical device and healthcare systems and software; Innovation, knowledge and technology transfer; Enterprise systems; Quality management systems; IT security; Safety-related systems and software; Test process improvement; Financial institutions and banks; Small and very small enterprises; IT and public procurement.
