Software Qualities and their Dependencies Report on two editions of the workshop

New trends in software engineering recently emerged to cope with even more complex systems which in turns highlight problems software shortfalls and defects. The SQUADE (Software QUAlities and their DEpendencies) workshop focuses on increasing the understanding of the nature of Software Qualities (SQs), i.e., nonfunctional properties or extra-functional requirements (e.g., reliability, security, maintainability, etc.), and their interrelationships with the aim of bringing them into practice of software engineering. The topic is highly relevant due to the current trend of designing and developing software-intensive systems with larger complexity, increased autonomy, higher speed of changes, and growing need for interoperability within systems of systems. Unfortunately, this new trend comes with more software shortfalls and defects, which are widely and publicly spread. The primary goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners to build more solid foundations when dealing with software qualities.
