Theme： Software Engineering Innovation Everywhere.Tbe fourteenth Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference （APSEC） will be held in Nagoya, Japan. APSEC is the leading international conference in software engineering and technology in the Asia-Pacific region. APSEC 2007 will bring together researchers and practitioners from industry, academia, and government to share the state of the art techno- logy in soRwar~ ~ngine, ering and seek to explore emerging challenges in soRware engineering innovation.As the rapid pervading of embedded and ubiquitous software, our lives are increasingly dependent on the software. Software engineering is facing challenges of safety, dependability, sustainability, and other various aspects in the development of such software or the provision of services using the software. Over the next several years, all kinds of embedded, personal, and enterprise application software will be connected together with each other, and will cover the globe. This is expected to bring about a sea change in software engineering.
