Call for Contributions
PESOS 2012
4th International Workshop on Principles of Engineering Service-Oriented Systems
In conjunction with the 34th International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE)
June 4, 2012 Zurich, Switzerland
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------Submission deadline has been extended----------------------------- Abstract submission: February, 22 Paper submission: February, 24
--------------------------------Motivation and Goals------------------------------------------------------ Service-oriented systems pose novel challenges to software engineering, stemming from the lack of homogeneity of their basic components and from the requirement of being able to accommodate unprecedented levels of changes and dynamic evolution. Increasingly, services will be offered via the Internet through emerging delivery models such as software-as-a-service (SaaS), business process outsourcing (BPO), cloud services and third-party services. This means that future software systems will increasingly rely on the provisioning of services, which are no longer under the software engineer’s control. Those trends are reflected in the special theme of the 4th edition of PESOS: “Internet of Services”.
The goal of PESOS 2012 is to bring together software engineering researchers from academia and industry, as well as practitioners working in the areas of service-oriented systems to discuss research challenges, recent developments, novel application scenarios, as well as methods, techniques, experiences and tools to support engineering, evolution and adaptation of large-scale, highly-dynamic service-oriented systems.
For the first time, PESOS will feature a special session on “the quest for case studies”. The special session aims to serve as a forum for researchers and practitioners sharing this vision and willing to contribute with their effort and experience. The ultimate goal is to create the reference set of case studies for the research community in service-oriented systems, hosted on a publicly available repository (not unlike the PROMISE data repository). The session will be organized as a working session in which participants can present their experience and the lessons learned.
-------------------------------Submission and Publication---------------------------------
Paper submission will be handled using easychair: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=pesos2012
The following two major classes of papers can be submitted: - Regular workshop papers of max. 7 pages - Extended abstracts of max. 2 pages for the special session on “the quest for case studies”
The PESOS workshop proceedings will be published in the ICSE Proceedings.
All submissions need to follow the official ICSE 2012 submission guidelines, available from http://www.ifi.uzh.ch/icse2012/how-to-submit/
-----------------------------Topics for Submissions------------------------------------
+++++++++++++++Regular PESOS Workshop Papers+++++++++++++++++++++++++
PESOS 2012 seeks contributions addressing any of the topics related to software engineering for the "Internet of Services", SOA, Web services, cloud computing, and connected areas.
Some examples of possible topics are: - Design and architecture of service-oriented systems - Methods and tools for design-time software engineering support for desired runtime behavior - Verification and validation of services and service-oriented systems - Service description, discovery, and composition - Service monitoring - Management of service-oriented systems - Adaptation and evolution of service-oriented systems - Scalability issues and distribution - Service personalization and context-aware provisioning - Service dependability, survivability, reliability and resilience - Trust, security, and privacy in service-oriented systems - Quality of service (QoS) and Service-level Agreements (SLAs) - System migration to service-oriented emerging business models (e.g. cloud, SaaS, BPO) - Service delivery models, including cloud and mobile - Patterns and best practices in development for service-based software - IT governance and compliance of service-oriented systems
+++++++++Extended Abstracts for Special Session on "The Quest for Case Studies"+++++++
- Descriptions of a case study in the area of service-oriented systems, and its related artefacts (e.g., service interfaces, service-based process descriptions, service ontologies, formal specifications and models, QoS/SLA descriptions and data, service implementations, test suites, execution traces, monitoring data, etc). - Reports on experiences in using case studies in research for service-oriented systems, including reports on negative experiences (e.g., case studies that showed to be not suitable though they initially looked very promising) and lessons learned from them.
Each extended abstract should include a link to a compressed archive file containing all the artefacts belonging to the case study, and a brief guide on how to use it.
The contributions will be evaluated with respect to the quality, the completeness, and the reusability of the artefacts. In case of acceptance, authors commit to make the case study material publicly available (under a Creative Common license) by the date of the workshop (more details to follow).
