Fwd: (SEWORLD) UML'03 Ist Workshop on Software Stability and Stable Analysis Patterns
by Gustaf Neumann 18 May '03

18 May '03

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: (SEWORLD) UML'03 Ist Workshop on Software Stability and Stable Analysis Patterns Date: Sat, 17 May 2003 15:07:08 -0500 (CDT) From: Mohamed Fayad <fayad(a)cse.unl.edu> To: Undisclosed recipients: ; == Sorry for multiple copies == _____________________________________________________________________ UML '03 First Workshop on Stable Analysis Patterns: A True Problem Understanding with UML Call for Papers UML '03 Full day workshop UML 2003 Sixth International Conference on UML - Modeling Languages and Applications October 20-24, 2003, San Francisco, USA http://www.umlconference.org/ (UML' 03 Link) http://www.engr.sjsu.edu/~fayad/workshops/UML03 http://www.activeframworks.com/publications/workshops/UML03 _____________________________________________________________________ There are two issues will be debated in this workshop: Software Stability Model and Stable Analysis Patterns: a True Problem Understanding with UML. Software stability concepts, introduced by me with the aid of UML, have demonstrated great promise in the area of software reuse and lifecycle improvement. Software stability models apply the concepts of "Enduring Business Themes" (EBTs) and "Business Objects" (BOs). These concepts have been shown to produce models that are both stable over time, and stable across various paradigm shifts within a domain or application context. By applying stability model concepts with UML to the notion of analysis patterns we propose the concept of Stable Analysis Patterns. The idea behind the stable analysis patterns is to analyze the problem under consideration in terms of its EBTs and the BOs with the goal of increased stability and broader reuse. By analyzing the problem in terms of its EBTs and the BOs, the resultant pattern models the core knowledge of the problem. The goal of this concept is stability. Software analysis patterns play a major role in reducing the cost and condensing the time of software project lifecycles. However, building reusable and stable analysis patterns is still a challenge. This workshop examines the novel concept of Stable Analysis Patterns as a new approach for building stable and reusable analysis patterns with UML. Software Stability: Current Problems There is little doubt that software engineering, like all other engineering fields, has helped to make life what it is today. With software controlling more equipment and becoming an integral part of more of our lives, the field of software engineering is quickly becoming more and more important. Unlike many other engineering fields, however, the products produced through software engineering are largely intangible. Also, unlike the products of other engineering fields, software products are unlikely to remain stable over a long period of time. In hardware areas, the failure rates of products often start high, then drop low, and then go high again. Early in a hardware product's lifecycle, there are some problems with the system. As these problems are fixed, the failure rate of the hardware products drops. However, as hardware gets old, physical deterioration causes the hardware to fail. In other words, the hardware wears out and the failure rate rises again. Software, on the other hand, is not subject to the same wear and tear that hardware is. There are no environmental factors that cause software to break. Software is a set of instructions, or a recipe, for a piece of hardware to follow. There are no moving parts in software. There is nothing that can physically deteriorate. Software should not wear out. Unfortunately, it does. Countless authors in the field of software engineering have identified this problem. However, the software engineering techniques outlined by many software-engineering authors have not achieved a good amount of stability in software projects. This problem is more than just an inconvenience for software engineers and software users. The reengineering that is required for these software products does not come without a price. It is not uncommon to hear of these reengineering projects costing hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. This does not take into account the time that is wasted by this continual reengineering process. Software defects and "deterioration" are caused by changes in software. Many of these changes cannot be avoided. These changes can be minimized, however. Currently, when a change must be made to a software program, most of the time the entire program is reengineered. It does not matter if the change required is due to new technology or a change in clientele. This reengineering process is ridiculous. The core purpose of the software product has not changed. Why, then, must the entire project be reengineered to incorporate a change? This workshop will examine software stability with respect to four central themes: "How can we engineer software systems that are stable overtime?," "What are the approaches of making software systems stable over time?", "What are the stable software patterns?", and What are the impact of software stability on new technologies, such as aspect-oriented architecture and programming, multi-agent technology, constraints-oriented software development, component-based software development, application and enterprise frameworks' developments, and many more. The workshop will debate several issues related to stability based on several columns are published in Fayad-CACM Thinking Objectively column, made several claims related to software stability model, such as how to build a stable software systems, how to generate stable model-based architectures, and many other issues: 1. M.E. Fayad and Adam Altman. Introduction to Software Stability, Communications of the ACM, Thinking Objectively, Vol. 44, No. 9, Sept. 2001, pp. 95-98. 2. M.E. Fayad. Accomplishing Software Stability, Communications of the ACM, Thinking Objectively, Vol. 45, No. 1, January 2002. 3. M.E. Fayad. How to Deal with Software Stability, Communications of the ACM, Thinking Objectively, Vol. 45, No. 4, April 2002. 4. M.E. Fayad and Shasha Wu. Merging Multiple Traditional Models in one Stable Model. Communications of the ACM, Thinking Objectively, Vol. 45, No. 9, Sept. 2002. We want researchers, framework developers, and application developers to answer the following questions: 1. Are the various claims related to software stability [in CACM's columns] true? 2. Are the various claims related to stable software patterns [in CACM's columns] true? 3. Are the various claims related to relationships between aspect-oriented architectures and programming and software stability [in CACM's columns] valid? 4. Are the various claims related to the impact of software stability on scalability [in CACM's columns] legitimate? 5. Are the various claims related to software stability model and extreme programming [in CACM's columns] accurate? 6. What are the relationships between software architecture and software that been stable over time? 7. How to apply software stability with UML? 8. What are the relationships between software that been stable over time and management workflow? 9. How can we achieve software stability over time and extend the life span of software products? 10. What are the relationships between software that been stable over time and business objects? 11. What is the role of object-oriented techniques and technologies of making software stable over time? 12. What are the approaches of making software stable over time? 13. What is the relationship between software stability and various new technologies, such as aspect-oriented architecture and programming, constraints programming, multi-agent-oriented software developments, component-based software developments, and others? 14. What is the relationship between application frameworks and software stability? 15. What are the impacts of software stability on understanding the customers' needs? 16. What are the impact of software stability on scalability, customizability, extensibility, Integra ability, and configurability? Stable Analysis Patterns: This workshop examines software stable analysis patterns with respect to four central themes: 1. How can we understand and model the problem through software stability concepts and UML? The workshop discusses how to use software stability concepts, with the aid of UML, for modeling the core knowledge of the problem. It shows the reader how to analyze the problems in terms of its Enduring Business Themes (EBTs), and Business Objects (BOs) using UML. In addition, it shows how to glue these components together to build a stable model. 2. What are the unique roles of stable analysis patterns in capturing the core knowledge of the problem at hand and in providing stable and undisputed solutions for such problems on the other hand? The workshop examines a complete and domain indpendent list of stable analysis patterns that are provided by the workshop organizers and they are useful for problem understanding and modeling with UML. Each pattern will illustrate how to capture the core knowledge and to address the issues underneath the surface of the problem. In addition, the workshop discusses the different design issues that will smoothly transfer the stable analysis pattern into the solution space (the design phase) using UML. 3. How can we achieve software stability over time and build stable analysis patterns that can be effectively reused? The use of the Enduring Business Themes (EBTs) and the Business Objects (BOs) has proven to construct models, with the aid of UML, that are both stable over time, and stable across various paradigm shifts within a domain or application context. Since the idea behind the stable analysis patterns is to analyze the problem under consideration in terms of its EBTs and the BOs the resultant stable patterns will capture the core knowledge of the problem. Moreover these stable patterns can be reused to model the same problem in any context. 4. What is the most efficient way for documenting the stable analysis patterns in order to ensure efficient reusability? The workshop examines the proposed and new documentation template by the organizers for the stable analysis patterns. The proposed template provides a complete description for each presented analysis pattern. This description utilizes several modeling artifacts using UML to insure the clarity of the pattern. It provides: the static models (i.e., UML class diagrams and object diagrams), the dynamic models (i.e., UML sequence diagrams and state charts), the use case diagram, the use case descriptions, and the Collaboration and Responsibility Cards (CRC) for each pattern. This detailed description will increase the reusability of the proposed patterns. The new documentation template will be provided to the workshop participants to examine. The workshop will debate several issues related to stable analysis patterns based on several columns are published in Fayad-CACM Thinking Objectively column, made several claims related to stable analysis patterns, such as how to identify and classify analysis patterns and distinguish them from any other patterns, and many other issues: 1.

What are the major roles of using UML for generating stable analysis patterns? 10. How can we achieve software stability over time and build stable analysis patterns that can be effectively reused? 11. How can the stable analysis pattern capture and model the core knowledge of the problem with the aid of UML? 12. How can we achieve the necessary level of abstraction using UML that makes the resultant analysis patterns effectively reusable, yet easy to understand? 13. What is the necessary information that analysis patterns should provide in order to ensure a smooth transition from the analysis phase to the design phase? 14. What is the most efficient way to describe analysis patterns in order to make them easy to understand and reuse? PAPER FORMAT AND SUBMISSION People interested in participating to the workshop are requested to submit a short position paper (3-5 pages) or regular workshop papers (limited to 10 pages, double space, including figures) representing views and experience relevant to the discussed topic. The title page should include a maximum 200-word abstract, five keywords, full mailing address, e-mail address, phone number, fax number, and a designated contact author.

Depending on the number and spread of contributions, the scope may be narrowed to ensure effective communication and information sharing. Accepted position papers will be published in the workshop proceedings to be distributed to the participants before the workshop, and made generally available through WWW and FTP. A workshop report will be published in the addendum proceedings of the conference. Please note that workshop participants must register at least on that day at UML conference. Early registration discount is available. We will have an overhead projector, computer projector, and a flipchart available. For more information please check <http://www.engr.sjsu.edu/~fayad/workshops/UML03> or <www.activeframeworks.com/publication/workshops/UML03> You may also contact the organizers. PROPOSED AGENDA A tentative agenda follows: 1. Welcome and introduction of participants. The organizers will first give a short overview of open issues and of the main arguments arising out of the position papers. (estimated time: 20-30 minutes) 2. Selected authors (representing the main trends) will be given about 20 minutes to explain how their position relates to other positions and what each sees as the major issues. We count on having about 5-10 position papers' presentations. (Estimated time: 140-150 minutes) 3. The organizers will propose an identification of the major issues, and the participants will then discuss and select what they hold to be the hottest issues to be examined. (Estimated time: 20-30 minutes) 4. Next, the participants will work for 70-80 minutes in small groups, with a designated moderator in each group. The groups will each deal with two different hot issues identified, and will produce a summary in the form of points and counterpoints, showing either how several views are irreducibly opposed or how they are complementary. The number of groups will depend on the number of participants and number of issues selected; ideally there should be 3-5 persons in each group. (Estimated time: 75-90 minutes) 5. Each group will present in 15-20 minutes its findings to all participants, followed by a closing discussion. The workshop report will be written on the basis of these findings and will include an agenda for future exploration and cooperation; it will be made available through WWW and FTP. (Estimated time: 60-75 minutes for four-five teams) (Total estimated time: 315-345 minutes, i.e. about six hours +/- 15 minutes, Lunch and breaks are not included.)

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: CfP Int. Conf. on Web Services - Europe 2003 (ICWS-Europe'03) Deadline: may, 23 Date: Sat, 17 May 2003 13:55:39 +0200 From: Rainer Unland <unlandr(a)informatik.uni-essen.de> To: Mario Jeckle <mario(a)jeckle.de> Cc: zhanglj(a)us.ibm.com The International Conference on Web Services - Europe 2003 (ICWS-Europe'03) Theme: Web Services Architectures, Infrastructures and Applications Location: Erfurt, Germany Date: 2003-09-23 and 2003-09-24 Web site: http://www.jeckle.de/ICWS03-Europe http://tab.computer.org/tfec/icws03 Important Dates Deadline Paper Submission: 2003-05-23: Notification of acceptance: 2003-06-20 Camera ready copies in electronic format: 2003-06-30. The International Conference on Web Services - Europe 2003 (ICWS-Europe'03) is an international conference focusing on Web Services research and development and will be held in Germany in Oct, 2003. ICWS-Europe'03 is an extended event of the 2003 International Conference on Web Services (ICWS'03) in Europe. It will be held concurrently with Net.ObjectDays'2003 (http://www.netobjectdays.org/node03/en/index.html) in Germany. ICWS provides a forum for researchers and industry practitioners to exchange information regarding advancements in the state of the art and practice of Web Services, as well as to identify the emerging research topics and define the future of Web Services computing. The first ICWS'03 will be held in Las Vegas, Nevada, June 23 - 26, 2003. After some time of early experience Web Services are moving themselves from a new highly fragmented technology to a piece of nowadays infrastructures which promise to address various current challenges. These include classical integration and data access challenges in a heterogeneous environment. Web Services provide an open and technology-agnostic interface, and furthermore propel new usage paradigms in distributed computing infrastructures like Grid services based OGSA (Open Grid Services Architecture). Successful adoption of Web Service technology relies on the definition of interoperable architectural building blocks which can be integrated in existing software architectures, like J2EE or CORBA heritage. Interoperability will surely prove itself as the critical success factor of the Web Service proliferation. In order to accomplish these interoperability various standardization bodies such as the W3C, UN or OASIS founded activities to create specifications and products implementing these building blocks. In the coming months, more and more early adopters will gain experience in deploying web services in their enterprises. Enterprises might try to extend the reach to external partners and lead to business to business exploring web services based integration. Web services metering, monitoring such as SLA (service level agreement) and choreography or web services flow management within enterprise and across enterprise will gain more attention. Areas of interest include but are not limited to: * Web Services based and Traditional Integration Architectures * Web services metering * Web Services and Semantic Web * Location-based Web Services Applications and Pervasive Services * Ontology for Web Services * Grid-based Services * Emerging Standards * Case Studies of Web Services Solutions * Interoperability --- Experiences and Desiderata * Web Services and E-Commerce * Web Services for Business Process Integration and Management * Federated Web Services Discovery * Web Services Choreography and Composition * Web services performance and modeling Full papers must not exceed 15 pages (see http://www.netobjectdays.org Menu For Authors). All papers should be in Adobe portable document format (PDF) or PostScript format. The paper should have a cover page, which includes a 200-word abstract, a list of keywords, and author's e-mail address. Authors should submit a full paper via electronic submission to mario(a)jeckle.de or zhanglj(a)us.ibm.com. All papers accepted for ICWS-Europe'03 are peer-reviewed and will be published in a special proceedings "Web Services Computing" by Springer Verlag, Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).

As we have become increasingly reliant on them, there is growing need for higher quality, better performance and continuous availability of these systems. Most Web-based systems are still poorly developed often in an ad hoc manner, and so they perform poorly, do not scale up and are prone to failures. Web engineering addresses these concerns with the establishment and use of sound scientific, engineering and management principles, and disciplined and systematic approaches to the development, deployment and maintenance of web-based systems and applications. Sub topics Within the scope defined above following are the main topics for this track. Web Information Systems Development Methodologies: Web application design and development strategies, methodologies and processes; web authoring and deployment tools; web application development environments; dynamic languages and standards; open software development; web programming languages and tools. Web Interface Design: Browsers and user interfaces; web interface design; new web metaphors; collaborative computing. Emerging Web Technologies: Semantic web; intelligent web; metadata format for intelligent applications; searching, querying, indexing and crawling; web information filtering; web services; wireless and mobile technologies for the web; intelligent agents. Web Security: Authentication; message integrity; encryption and coding, e-cash transfer and Internet open trading protocols. Web Project Management: Web project planning and management methodologies, approaches for development effort estimation, verification and validation techniques for web applications, case studies. Web Based eBusiness Applications: Case studies on deploying web based eBusiness applications, adoption strategies for web based applications. Web Information Systems Management: Web information systems management strategies, disaster recovery procedures, policies and procedures for managing web information systems. SUBMISSION CATEGORIES AND GUIDELINES: Submissions for the 2004 IRMA International Conference may be submitted in the following categories. (All submissions will undergo a blind, peer review by at least two external expert reviewers.) FULL LENGTH SUBMISSIONS: Those individuals interested may submit a full length (not to exceed 3000-3500 words with a maximum of 3 figures/tables), original, and previously unpublished, conceptual or empirical research manuscript for review and decision. Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings in their entirety or as a 1500-2000 word mini-paper, as recommended by the reviewers. High quality papers will be considered for further review and possible inclusion in the Information Resources Management Journal, Journal of End User Computing, Journal of Database Management, Journal of Global Information Management, Annals of Cases on Information Technology, International Journal of Distance Education Technologies, International Journal of IT Standards and Standardization Research or Journal of Electronic Commerce in Organizations.
