CALL FOR PAPERS
======================================================================== 5th European Conference on Software Architecture (ECSA 2011)
13-16 September 2011, Essen, Germany
http://www.ecsa2011.org ========================================================================
The role of software architecture in the engineering of software-intensive applications has become more and more important and widespread. Component-based and service-oriented architectures are key to the design, development and evolution of all software systems.
The European Conference on Software Architecture (ECSA) is the premier European software architecture conference, providing researchers, practitioners, and educators with a platform to present and discuss the most recent, innovative and significant findings and experiences in the field of software architecture research and practice.
We seek submissions of original papers describing basic and applied research, novel applications, research challenges and experience reports on all topics related to software architectures, including, but not limited to:
- requirements engineering and software architectures, - quality attributes and software architectures, - architecture reengineering, recovery, - architecture conformance, run-time monitoring, - aspect-oriented software architectures, - Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA), - web service composition, orchestration, choreography, - architecture-based solutions for evolving systems, - architectures for ultra-large and long-lived systems, - ontology-based approaches for component and architecture description, - process and management of architectural decisions, - process models and frameworks for architecture-centric software engineering, - architecture-centric model driven engineering, - architectural features of Model Driven Architecture, - software tools and environments for architecture-centric software engineering, - architectural concerns of autonomic systems, - component-based models, middleware, component-based deployment, - technology of components and component-based frameworks, - industrial applications, case studies, best practices and experience reports, - architecture description languages and metamodels, - architectural models, patterns and styles, - architecture analysis, validation and verification, - architecture transformation and refinement, - architecture-based synthesis, code generation, - architecture-based support for reconfigurable, adaptive or mobile applications.
PAPER SUBMISSIONS
As in previous years, ECSA 2011 seeks four types of papers that have not been published, accepted or submitted for publication elsewhere:
- *Full research papers* and *Experience papers* (max. 16 pages in LNCS style) which describe novel contributions to software architecture research (submissions should cover work that has a sound scientific/technological basis and has been validated).
- *Emerging research papers* (max. 8 pages in LNCS style) which present promising preliminary results from work-in-progress in a topic of software architecture research (submissions should cover work that has a sound basis, but perhaps has not been validated in full).
- *Research challenge papers* (max. 4 pages in LNCS style) which present significant research challenges in theory or practice of software architecture (submissions should clearly present the research questions and their rationale).
All submitted papers will undergo a rigorous peer review process, and be selected based on originality, quality, soundness and relevance. All accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings published by Springer-Verlag as part of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. The submission should be prepared using the Springer LNCS style.
Submit your paper electronically in PDF via the EasyChair submission system at https://www.easychair.org/account/signin.cgi?conf=ecsa2011
For questions, please contact Program Chair Ivica Crnkovic (ivica.crnkovic@mdh.se).
WORKSHOPS& TUTORIALS
We also solicit proposals for workshops and tutorials focusing on specific topics of interest in the field, ranging from theoretical foundations to practical applications. Workshop and tutorial organizers are encouraged to check www.ecsa2011.org for proposal guidelines, and submit proposals to Wilhelm Hasselbring (wha@informatik.uni-kiel.de).
