Because our gang has all this expertise in hot updates and dynamic
configurablity, maybe some would be interested in the CFP below.
Cheers,
Andrei

> Call for Papers
>
> Theme: Maintaining distributed heterogeneous systems
>
>
> ICSM is the major international conference in the field of software
and
> systems maintenance, evolution, and management. This year's
theme
> elaborates on last year's theme of "systems and software evolution in
the
> era of the internet". Standalone legacy applications of yesterday
and
> novel applications using today's technologies are rapidly
becoming
> integrated as part of enterprise-wide and industry-wide systems. The
need
> for rapid integration has led to many distributed heterogeneous
systems
> that are very challenging to maintain and evolve.
>
> ICSM 2002 will address these new scenarios and the major challenges
on
> maintenance and evolution. The focus of the conference will be on the
new
> challenges that heterogeneous systems pose for software maintenance,
and
> the new opportunities for researchers and practitioners. A main goal
of
> ICSM is to promote interaction between researchers and practitioners.
ICSM
> 2002 will bring together researchers, practitioners, developers and
users
> of tools, technology transfer experts, and project managers.
>
> Jon Pincus (Microsoft) will describe how Microsoft handles
software
> enhancements. Other outstanding Keynote speakers are being arranged.
Past
> conferences have had Parnas, Rombach, McCabe, and Jacobson.
>
> ICSM-2002 will offer technical presentations and demonstrations
from
> academia and industry. We are particularly interested in
exchanging
> concepts, prototypes, research ideas, and other results that
could
> contribute to the academic arena and also benefit business and
the
> industrial community. ICSM 2002 will be participatory, with
working
> collaborative sessions and presentations of industry projects.
>
> The Conference will be held in conjunction with:
>
> WESS -- Workshop on Empirical Studies of Software Maintenance.
> SCAM -- Source Code Analysis and Manipulation
> WSE -- Workshop on WEBsite Evolution
>
> Topics of interest include but are not restricted to the following
aspects
> of maintenance and evolution:
>
> - Methods and theories - Maintenance and/or productivity metrics
> - Organizational frameworks - Preventive maintenance
> - Design for maintenance - Tools and environments
> - Life cycle and process control - Models/methods for error prediction
> - User interface evolution - Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS)
> - Third party maintenance - Freeware and open source applications
> - Program comprehension - Software and system visualisation
> - Knowledge based systems - Measurement of software
> - Formal methods - Legal aspects and standards
> - Software reusability - Internet and distributed systems
> - Empirical studies - Testing and regression testing
> - Remote, tele-work - Version and configuration management
> - Processes and strategies - Management and organisation
> - Co-operative applications - Source code analysis and manipulation
> - Processes and strategies - Impact of new software practices
> - Programming languages - Reengineering and reverse engineering
> - Multimedia systems
>
> RESEARCH PAPERS: Research papers should describe original and
significant
> work in the research and practice of software maintenance and
evolution.
> Case studies, empirical research, and experiments are particularly
welcome.
> We also welcome papers that present leading edge and novel ideas
in
> maintenance. Papers must not exceed 5000 words (10 pages IEEE style)
in
> length, in English. To encourage strong submissions a prize will
be
> awarded for the "Best Paper as Submitted". This Prize is offered by
John
> Wiley & Sons, the publishers of the Journal of Software Maintenance
and
> Evolution. The Program Committee will select the winner and a
formal
> presentation of the Prize will be made in Montreal at ICSM 2002.
>
> FAST TRACK PAPERS: Fast Track papers should describe on-going
research
> activities, or summarize the experience in software maintenance
and
> evolution. Papers must not exceed 4 pages, IEEE style, in length,
in
> English. Accepted fast-track papers will be included in a
dedicated
> section of the conference proceedings.
>
> DISSERTATION FORUM: We welcome submissions of young researchers that
have
> delivered their dissertation (Masters or Ph.D.) in the last three
years.
> An award will be issued for the best submission. Four page summaries
of
> accepted dissertations will be included in the conference proceedings and
a
> special forum section will be organised at the conference.
>
> INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS: Proposals for presentations of
Industrial
> Applications are welcome. These can be state-of-the-art
descriptions,
> experience reports and survey reports from real projects,
industrial
> practices and models, or tool demonstrations. A dedicated sub-committee
of
> the program committee will review Industrial Application proposals and
a
> 1-page summary of accepted proposals will be included in the
conference
> proceedings.
>
> TUTORIALS: Tutorials should present software maintenance and
evolution
> topics of interest to practitioners. Tutorials may be full day or
half-day
> in length.
>
> SUBMISSION STYLE: PDF and/or Postscript electronic submission only.
Papers
> longer than 15 pages or 6000 words will be returned to the
