IEEE Symposium Software Crowdsourcing 2015 - Call for Papers http://rcbd.buaa.edu.cn/issc/
Scope and Vision Large-scale software ecosystems, such as cloud-based global online service systems and metropolitan-wide cyber-physical systems, exhibit unprecedented complexity, variability, and uncertainty. To tackle the challenges that arise from the practices of engineering these social-technical systems, we need new software models and development methodologies to build and maintain sustainable and active software ecosystems. Recently, crowdsourcing has been shown to be a viable and promising approach to enable bootstrapping and orchestration of software ecosystems at large scales. Through software crowdsourcing, software companies can seek funding support, market products to a wider range of customers, and to leverage the collective intelligence of developer communities to deliver high quality and innovative software products with lower cost.
This symposium aims to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the fields of software engineering, open source software, social networking, crowdsourcing, organization and economic science, and cloud computing to discuss the fundamental principles, software architecture and models, and development process of the methodology. The primary objective of the symposium is to share research ideas and practices in the emerging area of software crowdsourcing. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Software crowdsourcing process and methodology Worker behavior, ranking, evaluation, collaboration Incentive schemes, game theory, competition models, stochastic models Quality evaluation and assurance for Software Crowdsourcing Business cases, economics, strategies and governance for software ecosystems Software ecosystem modeling and practices Sustainability and evolution of software ecosystems Market-specific domain engineering Open source software ecosystems Virtualized software enterprises Industrial experiences with software crowdsourcing Enterprise Crowdsourcing and innovation Education Crowdsourcing and MOOCs eScience Crowdsourcing : citizen science and volunteer computing Crowdsourcing platforms (system, architecture, machine learning, education)
