3rd Workshop on Assessment of Contemporary Modularization
3rd Workshop on Assessment of Contemporary Modularization Techniques (ACoM.09)
26th October 2009, Orlando, Florida, USACo-located with: 24th ACM Conference on Object-Oriented Programming Systems
and Applications (OOPSLA 2009)
Workshop Web-site: http://www.comp.lancs.ac.uk/
------------------------------
Motivation
========
Numerous modularization techniques have been developed to cope with complexity
and increasing scale of software systems, such as Aspect-Oriented Software
Development (AOSD) and Feature-Oriented Programming (FOP). Using these advanced
modularization techniques, designers intend to achieve better changeability and
adaptability through improved modularity. However, it remains unclear to what
extent these new techniques have improved software productivity and
maintainability in practice. It is even more challenging to determine their
impact on closely-related emerging domains such as collaborative software
engineering, ultra-large systems, cyber-physical systems and cloud computing.
This workshop emphasizes the need for improving and pushing the boundaries on
the assessment of modern modularization techniques, especially in the emerging
domains of software development.
The purpose of this workshop is to (i) stimulate innovative ideas of new and more
effective modularity assessment methods to better evaluate contemporary
modularization techniques; (ii) solicit experience reports from practitioners
that help to better understand the impact of modularity assessment; (iii) discuss
the potential impact of assessment techniques; (iv) improve our understanding on
issues such as how to effectively differentiate the applicability of assessment
techniques in different circumstances; and (v) foster a collaborative environment
for both practitioners and researchers interested in the effective modularity
assessment from different levels and in different domains.
Goals
========
The main goal of this workshop is to put together researchers and practitioners
with different backgrounds in order to discuss open issues on the assessment of
contemporary modularization techniques, such as:
1. Do contemporary modularization techniques have a role to play in emerging
system domains? Can their benefits be assessed? How does the application of
contemporary modularization techniques to these domains affect assessment
strategies?
2. What attributes of these complex systems need to be measured and assessed?
3. Are current conventional metrics sufficient to assess software quality in
such domains? How can the validity of such metrics be measured?
4. What new assessment mechanisms are necessary to assess contemporary
heterogeneous modularization techniques in emerging system domains and to
accommodate the associated development practices?
5. What new modularization techniques or improvements to existing ones are
suggested by previous assessment results?
6. What resources and benchmarks are necessary to enable the effective and
efficient assessment of modularization techniques in emerging domains? How can
repeatability of studies be achieved over such complex domains?
The workshop also aims at: (i) bringing the attention of the software engineering
community the importance of rigorous evaluation of emerging modularization
techniques; (ii) motivating the expansion of research and practice associated with
assessment of emerging modularization technologies; and (iii) fostering a
collaborative environment for both practitioners and researchers interested in
effective assessment of new development techniques.
Topics of Interest
========
The workshop is intended to cover a wide range of topics, from theoretical
foundations to assessment frameworks and empirical studies involving contemporary
software modularity techniques. Topics of interest include the following
(but not limited to):
* Lessons learned from assessing new modularization techniques
* Assessment of emerging systems
* Empirical studies and industrial experiences
* Comparative studies between new modularization techniques and conventional ones
* Assessment frameworks
* Software metrics and estimation models
* Validation of assessment techniques and mechanisms
* Assessment techniques, methods and tools to different phases of the software lifecycle
* Development of predictive models of defect rates and reliability from real data
* Infrastructure issues, such as measurement theory, experimental design, and analysis approaches
* Improvement of modularization techniques based on assessment.
Workshop Format and Submissions
========
ACoM is a one-day long workshop and is strongly focused on discussion. Authors who
plan to contribute with a paper are requested to submit a position paper in PDF format.
The paper format must follow the ACM SIGPLAN (10pt) style guidelines. Papers must
be written in English and please see the workshop website
http://www.comp.lancs.ac.uk/
accepted papers will be published on the website
http://www.comp.lancs.ac.uk/
We are soliciting the submission of two categories of position papers:
1. Traditional position papers (up to 6 pages) related to workshop topics.
2. Very short position statement (1-2 pages), where the authors describe their
"innovative thoughts", lessons learned, or points of view with respect to one
or more workshop topics.
Papers in the category (1) will be refereed by at least three reviewers, and should
describe work that is not yet advanced enough for a full conference paper.
They are expected to have a more solid idea, even though it does not require strong
validation ingredients. Papers in the category (2) will be mainly reviewed for
topicality, i.e. checked if they fit into the workshop topics, including some
feedback from reviewers. Moreover we especially encourage authors to present their
experience and/or novel ideas on how to assess new modularization techniques
(shorter paper format).

Onward! 09 The conference for new ideas in Software
miércoles, 10 de junio de 2009
Onward! 09 The conference for new ideas, new paradigms, and reflections on everything to do with programming and software.
Sponsored by ACM SIGPLAN in cooperation with SIGSOFT
Co-located with OOPSLA 2009
Orlando, Florida October 25-29 2009
http://www.onward-conference.
*** Deadline approaching ***
June 26, 2009 Submission of short research papers
July 2, 2009 Submission of films
******************************
Onward! is a place for highly original ideas about how technological advances and new applications are going to shape computational fabrics of the future. Onward! is more radical, more visionary, and more open than other conferences to not so well proven but well argued ideas. We welcome different ways of thinking about, approaching, and reporting on programming languages and software engineering research. Onward! takes a broad and inclusive view of computation and seeks contributions from all fields represented at OOPSLA and other software conferences. Onward! particularly encourages contributions influenced by other disciplines such as art, philosophy, psychology, sociology, anthropology, biology,
economics, communities, politics, ethics, or any other human endeavor.
Anything to do with programming and software can be submitted. Anything!
Onward! is innovative not only with regard to its topics and ideas but also to the contribution formats. This year, we seek high quality submissions in one of the following categories:
*** RESEARCH PAPERS (Due June 26, 2009) ***
While regular research papers tell what work has been done and validated in recent years, Onward! papers show what exciting work is being done right now. Onward! accepts papers that talk about innovative research work that is early in its life or is not in the mainstream. We request submissions of position papers that propose bold directions of research and advocate nontraditional methodologies. An Onward! paper does not need to contain a fully worked out theory or implemented system, but must be well-thought-out and compelling in its vision or uniqueness of thinking.
Papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published in the OOPSLA 2009 Proceedings, and will appear in the ACM Digital Library.
*** FILMS ***
Years ago, sophisticated software systems had to be constructed by highly trained programmers who understood the ins and outs of software development. Today, with the advent of new mashup technologies and service architectures, these barriers have been lowered. The goal of this track is to explore new developments in how film and other narrative multimedia technologies can be used to enrich the software development process. Descriptions of accepted films will be published in the OOPSLA 2009 Companion, and will appear in the ACM Digital Library.
*** ESSAYS (submission closed) ***
*** WORKSHOPS (submission closed) ***
*** HOW TO SUBMIT ***
Electronic submission is required through the Onward! homepage. Text submissions must follow the standard ACM SIGPLAN format. Research papers should not exceed 8 pages. Submissions must not have been previously published, and must not be concurrently submitted for publication elsewhere (including journals and formal proceedings of conferences and workshops). Violation of this policy will result in desk-rejection of the submission.

CALL FOR PAPERS
WeeP 2009: 1st Workshop on Dependability and Security in P2P
WeeP 2009: 1st Workshop on Dependability and Security in P2P
In conjunction with LADC 2009 (Fourth Latin-American Symposium on Dependable Computing)
ORGANIZED BY: Federal University of Campina Grande (UFCG)
CO-SPONSORED BY: SBC - Brazilian Computing Society and IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Dependable Computing and Fault Tolerance
João Pessoa, Paraíba, BRAZIL
September 1 - 4, 2009
http://www.sbc.org.br/ladc
Peer to peer and self-organizing systems hold the promise of offering services and information anywhere and anytime, with better scalability, improved reliability and lower costs. This is done by eliminating the necessity of any statically designed infrastructure or any centralized administrative authority. It is in the nature of such networks to be self-organizing, since additionally, entities are allowed to join or leave the network in an arbitrary manner, making the whole system highly dynamic. Nonetheless, the issue of designing dependable and secure systems that can cope with the high dynamism and self-organization nature of overlay networks is a real challenge. Therefore, many problems should be addressed. What models are most appropriate for dynamic systems? What kind of consistency requirements can be ensured? How to deploy services and data in order to achieve high availability and better utilization of peer capacities? How to construct an overlay and routing infrastructure which is scalable and fault-tolerant? How to build efficient and secure search mechanisms? How can applications adapt themselves to the instability of the system and links, due to arbitrary leaves and joins, mobility, failures, congestion and collisions.
This workshop aims to bring together researchers from different domains to create a forum for investigating the many aspects of providing dependability and security in self-organizing, large-scale and dynamic systems. Contributions may span a broad range of topics, including:
- models for dynamic and self-organizing systems;
- scalability and reliability of dynamic systems;
- P2P storage and content distribution;
- P2P performance and robustness;
- security and trust management in dynamic systems;
- P2P Grids;
- P2P over Manets;
- applications and tests.
Only original papers (not published or under review elsewhere) should be submitted. All submissions must be made electronically through the conference web site.
INSTRUCTIONS TO CONTRIBUTORS
Papers should be written in English and can be submitted in the following categories: Regular Papers describing original research, Practical Experience Reports describing an experience or a case study. Regular Papers and Practical Experience Reports should be no longer than 6 pages, IEEE style double-column format, respectively, including figures, tables, references, and appendices. The font size should be 10 points. The first page should include an abstract, authors' names, addresses and affiliations, and specify whether the submission is a Regular Paper or a Practical Experience Report. The full mailing address, telephone and FAX numbers, as well as e-mail address of the contact author should also be indicated.

International Workshop on Interactive Multimedia for Consumer Electronics
CALL FOR PAPERS
International Workshop on
Interactive Multimedia for Consumer Electronics (IMCE'09)
Beijing, China, October 23, 2009
In conjunction with ACM Multimedia 2009
(http://www.hitech-projects.com/cfshan/IMCE09.html )
******************************International Workshop on
Interactive Multimedia for Consumer Electronics (IMCE'09)
Beijing, China, October 23, 2009
In conjunction with ACM Multimedia 2009
(http://www.hitech-projects.
With the development of silicon technologies, consumer electronics devices, such as personal computers, HDTV, mobile phones, digital cameras and game consoles, have become ubiquitous for people’s daily life. These devices can provide multimedia sources for entertainment, communication, and so on. To interact with these equipments, consumers currently rely on devices such as remote controls, keyboards or control panels, which are often inconvenient, ambiguous and non-interactive. How to design user interfaces of CE products that enable natural, intuitive and fun interaction is one of the main challenges the CE industry is facing. Many companies and institutes are working on the advanced user interfaces.
User interface technologies have been studied in various disciplines for decades. Considering that modern CE products are usually supplied with both microphones and cameras, how to employ both audio and visual information for interactive
multimedia has recently received much attention in both academia and industry. But interactive multimedia is still an under-explored field. Many challenges exist when moving to multimodal interaction: for example, how to annotate and search
huge data acquired by using multiple sensors, especially in the unconstrained end-user environments? how to effectively extract and select representative multimedia features for human behavior recognition? and how to select the fusion strategy of multimodal data for a given application? To address these challenges, we must adapt the existing approaches or find new solutions suitable for multimedia interaction.
This workshop will bring together researchers from both academia and industry in domains including computer vision, machine learning, audio and speech processing, communications, artificial intelligence and media technology to share and discuss recent advances in interactive user interfaces and multimedia applications.
Topics related to interactive multimedia for consumer electronics include, but are not limited to:
-- Multimedia description and markup
-- Multimedia representation and annotation
-- Multimedia search and retrieval
-- Presence and environment sensing
-- Face detection, recognition, and tracking
-- Hand detection, tracking, and recognition
-- Facial expression recognition
-- Emotion/mood recognition
-- Gesture/action/activity recognition
-- Audio-visual recognition and interaction
-- Novel interaction (accelerometer, touch screen, haptics, voice)
-- Multimodal data modeling and fusion

Third Workshop on Formal Languages and Analysis of Contract-Oriented Software
jueves, 4 de junio de 2009
Third Workshop on Formal Languages and Analysis of
Contract-Oriented Software (FLACOS'09)
Contract-Oriented Software (FLACOS'09)
24-25 September 2009, Toledo - Spain
http://www.ifi.uio.no/flacos09
The ability to negotiate contracts for a wide range of aspects and to provide services conforming to them is a most pressing need in service-oriented architectures. High-level models of contracts are making their way into service-oriented architectures, but application developers are still left to their own devices when it comes to writing code that will comply with a contract concluded just before service provisioning. At the programming language level, contracts appear as separate concerns that cut across application logic, while analysis requires that contracts are abstracted from applications to become amenable to formal reasoning using formal language techniques. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners working on language-based solutions to the above issues through formalization of contracts, design of appropriate abstraction mechanisms, and formal analysis of contract languages and software.
The workshop will consist mainly of a number of presentations by invited speakers. A small number of additional sessions will be reserved for other researchers in the field who are encouraged to submit a short abstract of their work as an expression of interest in participating in the workshop by 8 June 2009. The number of participants in the workshop is strictly limited.
The previous editions of the workshop were held in Oslo in 2007 (FLACOS'07) and Malta in 2008 (FLACOS'08). The FLACOS workshops are partially supported by Nordunet3, under the project COSoDIS.

International Workshop on Middleware for Pervasive Mobile and Embedded Computing

International Workshop on Middleware for Pervasive Mobile and Embedded Computing
International Workshop on Middleware for Pervasive Mobile and Embedded Computing
http://www.smartlab.cis.
A Workshop of Middleware 2009
Urbana Champaign, Illinois, USA
November 30 - December 4, 2009
Problem Space
Building on the success of the previous editions of MPAC and MobMid, this event combines the thematic areas of the two workshops and aims to develop a research roadmap on essential middleware abstractions and platforms for pervasive mobile and embedded systems.
In recent years, the rise of relatively powerful mobile communication devices like mobile phones, mobile Internet devices, and netbooks, as well as several types of embedded devices, like TV set-top boxes, iPods, Kidle, etc, has enabled a wide spectrum of novel pervasive applications, such as healthcare monitoring, sport tracking, context-aware collaborative computing, etc. Moreover, with the rise of cloud computing infrastructures developers have also started exploring the possibility of empowering resource-constrained mobile devices with such infrastructures offering unlimited storage and computing resources.
Developing practical applications for this kind of devices is still in most cases a complex and time-consuming process. Many of the existing applications have been built in an ad-hoc manner and without any possibility for code reuse. As the number and type of mobile and embedded devices, and pervasive applications increases, so does the need to enable interoperability among them. Identifying appropriate middleware abstractions and organizing successfully used protocols, algorithms, and software modules into generic middleware platforms can facilitate application development, foster software reuse, and enable rapid prototyping of pervasive applications.
It is unclear and in many respects still an unexplored research area to what extent traditional middleware services can be provided on these devices. Porting existing middleware architectures to these new computing platforms turns out to be often infeasible. Instead, a thorough reconsideration of middleware abstractions and their supporting infrastructure is needed to allow applications to make effective use of the available computational power, memory, communication technologies, integrated sensors, etc. An ideal middleware platform should be capable of handling the resource constraints of these devices but at the same time exploit their unique features such as availability of location information, embedded sensors, mobility, spontaneous interaction, context-awareness, etc.

3rd Workshop on Assessment of Contemporary Modularization Techniques
3rd Workshop on Assessment of Contemporary Modularization Techniques (ACoM.09)
26th October 2009, Orlando, Florida, USA
Co-located with: 24th ACM Conference on Object-Oriented Programming Systems and Applications (OOPSLA 2009)
Workshop Web-site: http://www.comp.lancs.ac.uk/computing/ACoM.09/
26th October 2009, Orlando, Florida, USA
Co-located with: 24th ACM Conference on Object-Oriented Programming Systems and Applications (OOPSLA 2009)
Workshop Web-site: http://www.comp.lancs.ac.uk/
------------------------------
Motivation
========
Numerous modularization techniques have been developed to cope with complexity and increasing scale of software systems, such as Aspect-Oriented Software Development (AOSD)
and Feature-Oriented Programming (FOP). Using these advanced modularization techniques, designers intend to achieve better changeability and adaptability through improved modularity.
However, it remains unclear to what extent these new techniques have improved software productivity and maintainability in practice. It is even more challenging to determine their impact on emerging application domains such as collaborative software engineering, ultra-large systems, cyber-physical systems and cloud computing. This workshop emphasizes the need for improving and pushing the boundaries on the assessment of modern modularization techniques, especially in the context of emerging software domains.
The purpose of this workshop is to (i) stimulate innovative ideas of new and more effective modularity assessment methods to better evaluate contemporary modularization techniques; (ii) solicit experience reports from practitioners that help to better understand the impact of modularity assessment; (iii) discuss the potential impact of assessment techniques; (iv) improve our understanding on issues
such as how to effectively differentiate the applicability of assessment techniques in different circumstances; and (v) foster a collaborative environment for both practitioners and researchers interested in the effective modularity assessment from different levels and in different domains.
Goals
========
The main goal of this workshop is to put together researchers and practitioners with different backgrounds in order to discuss open issues on the assessment of contemporary modularization techniques, such as:
1. Do contemporary modularization techniques have a role to play in emerging system domains? Can their benefits be assessed? How does the application of contemporary modularization techniques to these domains affect assessment strategies?
2. What attributes of these complex systems need to be measured and assessed?
3. Are current conventional metrics sufficient to assess software quality in such domains? How can the validity of such metrics be measured?
4. What new assessment mechanisms are necessary to assess contemporary heterogeneous modularization techniques in emerging system domains and to accommodate the associated development practices?
5. What new modularization techniques or improvements to existing ones are suggested by previous assessment results?
6. What resources and benchmarks are necessary to enable the effective and efficient assessment of modularization techniques in emerging domains? How can repeatability of studies be achieved over such complex domains?
Topics of Interest
=============
The workshop is intended to cover a wide range of topics, from theoretical foundations to assessment frameworks and empirical studies involving contemporary software modularity techniques. Topics of interest include the following (but not limited to):
* Lessons learned from assessing new modularization techniques
* Assessment of emerging systems
* Empirical studies and industrial experiences
* Comparative studies between new modularization techniques and conventional ones
* Assessment frameworks
* Software metrics and estimation models
* Validation of assessment techniques and mechanisms
* Assessment techniques, methods and tools to different phases of the software lifecycle
* Development of predictive models of defect rates and reliability from real data
* Infrastructure issues, such as measurement theory, experimental design, and analysis approaches
* Improvement of modularization techniques based on assessment.
Workshop Format and Submissions
===========================
ACoM is a one-day long workshop and is strongly focused on discussion. Authors who plan to contribute with a paper are requested to submit a position paper in PDF format. The paper format must follow the ACM SIGPLAN (10pt) style guidelines. Papers must be written in English and please see the workshop website http://www.comp.lancs.ac.uk/
We are soliciting the submission of two categories of position papers:
1. Traditional position papers (up to 6 pages) related to workshop topics.
2. Very short position statement (1-2 pages), where the authors describe their "innovative thoughts", lessons learned, or points of view with respect to one or more workshop topics.
Papers in the category (1) will be refereed by at least three reviewers, and should describe work that is not yet advanced enough for a full conference paper. They are expected to have a more solid idea, even though it does not require strong validation ingredients. Papers in the category (2) will be mainly reviewed for topicality,
i.e. checked if they fit into the workshop topics, including some feedback from reviewers. Moreover we especially encourage authors to present their experience and/or novel ideas on how to assess new modularization techniques (shorter paper format).
Important Dates
============
- Abstract Submission Deadline: 21st August 2009
- Paper Submission Deadline: 28th August 2009
- Notification of Acceptance: 1 week before OOPSLA early-registration cut-off
