# IEEE International Conference on Software Maintenance and Evolution (ICSME) ## Conference positioning IEEE International Conference on Software Maintenance and Evolution (ICSME) is a top computer-science conference venue for software maintenance, evolution, comprehension, refactoring, technical debt, and empirical SE. It rewards a maintenance/evolution paper with real repository evidence and actionable engineering insight. Treat this skill as a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool for conference submission strategy, not as a substitute for the current year's CFP, author kit, ethics policy, or submission portal. Because CS conferences change deadlines, templates, page limits, review workflow, artifact rules, AI-use policy, and rebuttal formats every cycle, always verify the live official instructions before making a submission-ready recommendation. Start from the official source anchor recorded for this venue in `../../resources/conference-roster.md` and `../../resources/official-source-map.md`. ## When to trigger - The author names ICSME / IEEE International Conference on Software Maintenance and Evolution as the target venue. - A manuscript in software maintenance needs a

About this skill
What does the ieee-international-conference-on-software-maintenance-and-evolution skill do?

Use when targeting IEEE International Conference on Software Maintenance and Evolution (ICSME) or deciding whether a computer-science manuscript fits this venue. Encodes conference fit, framing, evidence bar, submission-cycle checks, rebuttal posture, and desk-reject risks for software maintenance.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill ieee-international-conference-on-software-maintenance-and-evolution --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
