SiREN2025

Welcome to SiREN Signal 2025

Siren Signal 2025 was held in Gothenburg, June 2nd and June 3rd from Lunch to Lunch, at Campus Lindholmen, near Lindholmspiren.

Over the two half-days we heard a total of 13 presentations about various topics of requirements engineering (RE). We enjoyed several perspectives on how artificial intelligence (AI) affects RE (AI4RE) and vice versa (RE4AI), heard insights from industrial ambassadors, and considered yet underrepresented aspects like nature as a stakeholder.

The SiREN Signal 2025 once more demonstrated how active, vibrant, and engaged the Swedish RE community is. Thank you to all the presenters, participants, discussants, and organizers for ensuring that SiREN Signal 2025 became such a success.

Where exactly is SiREN Signal 2025?

The meeting room is in the Jupiter building, room no 520 (same as when SiREN was in Gbg last time). Entrance from the street called Hörselgången 5.
As usual, you are responsible for your own travel and accommodation costs, as well as dinner, but the host will provide a venue, and typically some food/snacks during the event.
SiREN meetings last lunch to lunch to facilitate travel the same days.

How to prepare for SiREN Signal 2025?

Node representatives are encouraged to involve any other colleagues (students, faculty, industry) who work with RE and may be interested to attend. Contact the Signals PC Co-chairs on how to register participants and for any other information about the event.
If you want to present, contact the organizers. We give priority to PhD students that want useful feedback from RE friends.

Where is the evening dinner?

On the first day (Monday, June 2nd), we jointly have dinner at Lilla Hanoi (Torggatan 4, 411 05 Göteborg) at 18:00. The ferry line 286 goes directly from Campus Lindholmen to the other side of the river, from where it is just a 10 minute walk to the restaurant. Note that the dinner is self-paid, i.e., everyone has to cover their own cost.
