# International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE) ## Conference positioning International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE) is a top computer-science conference venue for software engineering methods, tools, empirical SE, testing, maintenance, requirements, and developer productivity. It rewards an SE paper with clear contribution type, rigorous empirical design, and tool or theory relevance. 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 ICSE / International Conference on Software Engineering as the target venue. - A manuscript in software engineering methods needs a conference-fit read before b

About this skill
What does the international-conference-on-software-engineering skill do?

Use when targeting International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE) 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 engineering flagship.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill international-conference-on-software-engineering --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 984 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.
