-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Journal of Systems and Software (JSS) - Elsevier SPECIAL ISSUE on Web 2.0 engineering: new practices and emerging challenges

**EXTENDED DEADLINE: APRIL 13th, 2012** ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Listed at JCR 2010 with impact factor of 1,293 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The number and complexity of Web applications and the amount of information they offer has experienced a continuous growth in the last years under the umbrella of Web 2.0 applications. Some new issues thus need to be addressed when engineering social software, Rich Internet and Service-Oriented Applications, Web mashups or Semantic Web applications.

In this special issue we welcome contributions on the following topics:

-Model-driven approaches in the context of Web 2.0 application development -Integration of Web 2.0 characteristics into traditional Model-driven Web Engineering (e.g., social computing, Rich Internet Applications, Service-Oriented Architectures, cloud computing, collaborative design, Semantic Web, etc.) -Potential problems or limitations of model-driven software development (MDSD) in the Web 2.0 domain -Domain specific modeling languages, UML profiles and metamodels for Web 2.0 applications -Design and architectural patterns for Web 2.0 applications -Architectural Modeling, code generation and model interpretation for Web 2.0 applications -Model-to-model transformations, model-to-code transformations, and interoperability models for Web 2.0 applications; quick prototyping and early customer feedback -Tools and frameworks for supporting model-driven Web 2.0 application development -Model-driven analysis of Web 2.0 applications, including quality, performance or reliability analysis conducted using high-level models of the application -Maintenance, evolution, reengineering and management of Web 2.0 systems -Benchmarks for obtaining empirical evaluations and comparisons of Model-Driven Web 2.0 development -Modeling of requirements, goals, and domains in the Web 2.0 -Prototyping and simulation in Web 2.0 -Alignment between business and Web requirements -Social, cultural, and cognitive factors in Web requirements engineering -User-centered analysis and design for Web 2.0 applications -Modeling and evaluation of User experience (UX) in Web 2.0 applications -Requirements engineering for RIAs -Quality evaluation of the content created and shared by the users by using Web 2.0 applications -Adaptation of existing quality assessment methods (e.g., review guidelines, quality models, quality checkers, Web usage analysis tools) for their use with modern Web applications -Practical recommendations and lessons learned about quality criteria in the Web development context (e.g., Rich Internet Applications) that could encourage and inspire practitioners to improve their evaluation processes -Results about quality evaluation method properties (e.g., effectiveness, ease of use) -How to balance the competing demands of schedule, cost, scope, and quality with the advent of the new Web 2.0 panorama.

Forms of submission ------------------- There are two types of submission: 1. An open call targeted at researchers and practitioners alike working on areas related to the topics of interest listed above. 2. Personal invitations targeted at the authors of the best papers accepted at the following workshop held in conjunction with the International Conference on Web Engineering (ICWE) 2011: the 2nd Web and Requirements Engineering (WeRE 2011), 2nd International Workshop on Quality in Web Engineering (QWE 2011), and the 7th Model-Driven Web Engineering Workshop (MDWE 2011). In particular, authors will be invited to submit extended versions of their papers for full re-review. The extended version should be non-trivially extended from the version that appears in the workshop (at a very minimum it should contain 30% new material). Authors will be asked to write an accompanying letter explaining how their workshop paper has been extended to meet this requirement and how referees' comments and the discussion during the workshop about their work have been addressed.

Important dates --------------- Deadline for submission of papers: APRIL 13th, 2012 Authors to receive a 1st decision by: May 30th, 2012 Final notification of acceptance: July 30th, 2012 Publication: December 2012
