CEE-SECR 2013 is the premier software engineering conference in Russia. The conference will take place on October 23-25 at the Digital October Center, Moscow. Over 700 participants are expected to attend the event, representing IT industry specialists from all areas: researchers and students from computer science, IT and software engineering academia, and practitioners from industry and government. The conference is supported by Russian Venture Company, Intel, EMC, First Line Software, APKIT and RUSSOFT Association.
In past years, keynote lectures were delivered by the author of the C++ programming language Bjarne Stroustrup, co-creator of Scrum methodology Jeff Sutherland, co-founder of Yandex Ilya Segalovich and other distinguished experts.
Keynote lectures at CEE-SECR 2013 will be delivered by James Stikeleather (Executive Strategist/Chief Innovation Officer at Dell); Dave A. Thomas (founder of OTI, now the IBM OTI Labs), Ivar Jacobson (a major contributor to UML) and others. The conference program will be composed of research presentations, experience reports, panel discussions, workshops and express-presentations with discussions.
The program targets both experienced specialists and those who seek to expand their knowledge of new areas which might be adjacent to their core specialization.

Example 2: “I will share my experience in communication with difficult customers based on seven years of work and over 20 successful projects, which will be presented in the form of case studies with analysis/conclusion. I think that participants will be able to apply this knowledge in their daily work, since some of these situations have occurred more than once with different clients.”
