SCAM brings together researchers and practitioners working on theory, techniques and applications which concern analysis and/or manipulation of the source code of computer systems. While much attention in the wider software engineering community is properly directed towards other aspects of systems development and evolution, such as specification, design and requirements engineering, it is the source code that contains the only precise description of the behaviour of the system. The analysis and manipulation of source code thus remains a pressing concern.

This year’s program is led off by a keynote entitled ``How Analysis Can Hinder Source Code Manipulation - And What to Do about It'' by Michael Ernst. Michael’s keynote will be followed by two days of presentations of 17 full papers and 3 practical tool demonstrations, including original and significant research and tools in the field of source code analysis and manipulation, with topics in:

- program transformation - abstract interpretation - program slicing - source level software metrics - decompilation - source level testing and verification - source level optimization - program comprehension

In keeping with the spirit and format of a working conference, SCAM will continue its tradition of a highly discursive meeting, with theme-based discussion tracks aimed at structuring and stimulating discussion. Authors will have a 15 minute slot to present their work, with 10 minutes (maximum) for talking with 5 minutes (minimum) for questions. Authors are encouraged not to attempt to present the details of their paper in this time. Rather, respecting the discussion-centered goal of SCAM, authors are encouraged to use a few slides to present points, claims, issues and topics for discussion and to use their time allocation to attempt to set the agenda for the ensuing discussions. Each session has a specifically allocated discussion time at the end of the presentations to allow for this.

General Chair: Thomas Dean, Queen’s University, Canada

Program Co-chairs: Sibylle Schupp, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden Andrew Walenstein, University of Louisiana at Lafeyette, USA
