Conference on Systems Engineering Research

Held March 19 - 22, 2012, in St. Louis, Missouri

Thank you to all who helped make the 10^th Annual Conference on Systems Engineering Research (CSER 2012) a success during the week of March 19-22, 2012 in St. Louis, MO. Missouri University of Science and Technology was honored to host this year's conference and looks forward to the future of CSER. Researchers from around the world presented their papers on systems engineering and architecting research. Over the past 10 years, CSER has become the primary conference for disseminating systems engineering research and germinating new research ideas. The 2012 conference pushed the boundaries of research and aid in responding to new challenges in this field. Papers were presented in eleven topical areas and indexed online at www.sciencedirect.com. (To access the proceedings, please enter Procedia Computer Science in the Journal/book title search and 8 in the Volume search.)

SEANET Doctoral Workshop - Monday, March 19, 2012

Doctoral candidates participated in the Systems Engineering & Architecting Network (SEANET) Doctoral workshop, which was held just prior to the conference itself. This workshop is offered to advance systems engineering research by providing a network of collegial support, research resources and industry contacts to enable completion of doctoral dissertations. Current and soon-to-begin doctoral students participated in the workshop and several submitted research posters for presentation at the Tuesday evening reception.
