{{  :images:gildenhuizen_grote_markt.jpg?250|Grote Markt Antwerpen}} The IEEE/ACM ASE conference series is one of the world's premier Software Engineering conferences. Each year, it brings together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to discuss foundations, techniques and tools for automating the analysis, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance of large software systems.  ASE 2010 celebrated the 25th anniversary of the series in the city of Antwerp.

ASE 2010 featured a rich selection of high-quality contributions.  Out of 190 submissions, 33 contributions were presented as full papers, and 26 as short papers.  In the Tool Demonstration track, 18 contributions were selected out of 43 submissions.  The Doctoral Symposium proposed 6 contributions from junior researchers.  The program also proposed no less than eight associated workshops and five tutorials.  The proceedings were published in the ACM International Conference Proceedings Series, exclusively in digital form, and distributed to attendees on memory sticks.

ASE 2010 counted 243 registered participants overall, with 168 attending the main conference.  The conference was hosted in Universiteit Antwerpen's brand-new Meerminne facility.  The 25th anniversary was honoured with a special keynote address, a re-edition of the seminal KBSA Report and a widely acclaimed special anniversary banquet.

Many thanks to all attendees, but also to the countless organizers, volunteers, providers, sponsors and partners, for their contribution to this very successful conference!
