Author Guidelines

CrossTalk publishes many types of articles that relate to software development. First consideration goes to articles that deal specifically with military efforts, but we also consider articles that deal with government software development or the software industry at large. Typical article categories include, but are not limited to:

• Technical papers
• Overviews of an emerging or established field
• Fresh information within a narrow field of interest
• Opinion pieces for Open Forum.
• Articles from the perspective of people "in the trenches"
• Tutorials about software engineering methods and concepts
• Lessons learned

We welcome articles of interest to the defense software community. Articles must be approved by the CrossTalk editorial board prior to publication.
