MSR 2026
The Mining Software Repositories (MSR) conference is the premier venue for software analytics research, according to which software engineering data is analyzed using a mixture of data science, machine learning/artificial intelligence, and qualitative methodologies. The goal of the conference is to improve software engineering practices by uncovering interesting and actionable information about software systems and projects using the vast amounts of software data, such as source control systems, defect tracking systems, code review repositories, archived communications between project personnel, question-and-answer sites, CI build servers, and run-time telemetry. Mining this information can help to understand software development and evolution, software users, and runtime behavior; support the maintenance of software systems; improve software design/reuse; empirically validate novel ideas and techniques; support predictions about software development; and exploit this knowledge in planning future development.

Call for Papers
The International Conference on Mining Software Repositories (MSR) is the premier conference for data science (DS), machine learning (ML), and artificial intelligence (AI) in software engineering. There are vast amounts of data available in software-related repositories, such as source control systems, defect trackers, code review repositories, app stores, archived communications between project personnel, question-and-answer sites, CI build servers, package registries, and run-time telemetry.
Double-Anonymous Review
The MSR 2026 Technical Track will employ a double-anonymous review process. Thus, no submission may reveal its authors' identities. The authors must make every effort to honor the double-anonymous review process. In particular:
Authors' names must be omitted from the submission.
All references to the author's prior work should be in the third person.
While authors have the right to upload preprints on ArXiV or similar sites, they must avoid specifying that the manuscript was submitted to MSR 2026.
During review, authors should not publicly use the submission title. We recommend using a different paper title for any pre-print in arxiv or similar websites.
All communication with the program committee must go through the program committee chairs. Do not contact individual program committee members regarding your submission.
Accepted Papers
After acceptance, the list of paper authors can not be changed under any circumstances and the list of authors on camera-ready papers must be identical to those on submitted papers. After acceptance paper titles can not be changed except by permission of the Program Co-Chairs, and only then when referees recommended a change for clarity or accuracy with paper content.
If a submission is accepted, at least one author of the paper is required to register for MSR 2026 and present the paper.
