The Twenty-Fourth International Conference on Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering (SEKE 2012) will be held at the Hotel Sofitel, Redwood City, California, USA, July 1-3, 2012.

The conference aims at bringing together experts in software engineering and knowledge engineering to discuss on relevant results in either software engineering or knowledge engineering or both. Special emphasis will be put on the transference of methods between both domains. Submission of papers and demos are both welcome.
