ICSE 2015 and Software Engineering Research at Google

July 30, 2015

Posted by Mohsen Vakilian, Software Engineer



The large scale of our software engineering efforts at Google often pushes us to develop cutting-edge infrastructure. In May 2015, at the International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE 2015), we shared some of our software engineering tools and practices and collaborated with the research community through a combination of publications, committee memberships, and workshops. Learn more about some of our research below (Googlers highlighted in blue).

Google was a Gold supporter of ICSE 2015.
