PURPOSE
This conference is an international forum for researchers and 
practitioners interested in the advances in, and applications of, 
software engineering.  It is an opportunity to present and observe the 
latest research, results, and ideas in these areas. All papers submitted 
to this conference will be peer reviewed by at least two members of the 
International Program Committee. Acceptance will be based primarily on 
originality and contribution.

SE 2004 will be held in conjunction with the IASTED International 
Conferences on Artificial Intelligence and Applications (AIA 2004), 
Parallel and Distributing Computing and Networks (PDCN 2004), Databases 
and Applications (DBA 2004), Web-based Education (WBE 2004), and 
Biomedical Engineering (BioMed 2004).


LOCATION
Located on the banks of the Inn River, Innsbruck lies in a valley in the 
Tirolean Alps.  A medieval gem and Olympic city twice over, Innsbruck 
has managed to retain its historical beauty while establishing itself as 
a dynamic and versatile city center. In recognition of the cultural and 
historical significance of its past, Innsbruck has worked to preserve 
the artistic and historical treasures that continue to define this city. 
  It boasts a number of historical landmarks and artistic treasures, 
among them the "Black Knights", the Court Palace, the Golden Roof, and 
Ambras Castle.

While the history of this city holds great importance, Innsbruck also 
features an abundance of first-class recreational facilities. With the 
Alps at one's feet, there are numerous opportunities for hiking, skiing, 
paragliding, and mountain biking, all amidst breathtaking physical 
landscapes. With its mixture of historical, intellectual, and 
recreational offerings, Innsbruck is a city that holds something for 
everyone. It is a unique travel experience that should not be missed.

SE 2004 will be held at the world-famous Congress Innsbruck, located in 
the heart of the city, near the historical quarter. This facility won 
the award in 2000 for 'Best Conference Center in Europe'.
