Call for Posters

HISC 2025: Call for Research Posters

The mission of the High Integrity Software Conference is to share challenges, best practices and experiences between software engineering practitioners. The conference features talks from industrial and academic specialists which disseminate experience and knowledge of important techniques and methods that are applicable across industry sectors.

The Programme Committee would like to invite proposals for posters presenting research and innovations at HISC 2025. These posters will be showcased in the Future Zone section of the exhibition space. More details on how to apply can be found below.

Eligibility

This call is open to anyone involved in academic or industry research, including research students and research assistants. We are interested in all topics relevant to developing high-integrity software applications, including theoretical computer science, software engineering, cybersecurity, and related areas, including safety engineering. For information, the themes for this year’s conference can be found on the Call for Presentations page, but it is not mandatory to align your poster with these themes.

Note that posters are not intended for the promotion of products or services. For commercial promotions, please see information on our exhibitors page about how to book an exhibition booth or Spotlight Talk session.

Applications must be received by 30th September. However, please note that places are limited, and we cannot guarantee that we will offer all applicants a slot.
