TASE 2015 - Preliminary CALL FOR PAPERS ****************************************************************** The 9th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Software Engineering (TASE 2015) 12-14 September 2015, Nanjing, China http://tase2015.nuaa.edu.cn For more information email: tase2015@easychair.org ****************************************************************** -------- OVERVIEW -------- The 9th Theoretical Aspects of Software Engineering Conference (TASE 2015) will be held in Nanjing, China in September, 2015. Modern society is increasingly dependent on software systems that are becoming larger and more complex. This poses new challenges to the various aspects of software engineering, for instance, software dependability in trusted computing, interaction with physical components in cyber physical systems, distribution in cloud computing applications, etc. Hence, new concepts and methodologies are required to enhance the development of software engineering from theoretical aspects. TASE 2015 aims to provide a forum for people from academia and industry to communicate their latest results on theoretical advances in software engineering. TASE 2015 is the 9th in the TASE series. The past TASE symposiums were successfully held in Shanghai ('07), Nanjing ('08), Tianjin ('09), Taipei ('10), Xi'an ('11), Beijing ('12), Birmingham ('13), Changsha('14).The proceedings of the TASE 2015 symposium are planned to be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press. ------ TOPICS ------ The symposium is devoted to theoretical aspects of software engineering. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Requirements Engineering * Specification and Verification * Program Analysis * Software Testing * Model-Driven Engineering * Software Architectures and Design * Aspect and Object Orientation * Embedded and Real-Time Systems * Software Processes and Workflows * Component-Based Software Engineering * Software Safety, Security and Reliability * Reverse Engineering and Software Maintenance * Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing * Semantic Web and Web Services * Type System and Theory * Program Logics and Calculus * Probability in Software Engineering ---------- SUBMISSION ---------- Submission should be done through the TASE 2015 submission page, handled by the EasyChair conference system: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tase2015 As in previous years, the proceedings of the conference are planned to be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press. Papers must be written in English and not exceed 8 pages in Two-Column IEEE format --------------- IMPORTANT DATES --------------- Abstract submission: 7 March 2015 (23h59 GMT) Paper submission: 14 March 2015 (23h59 GMT) Notification: 23 May 2015 Camera-ready: 13 June 2015 Conference: 12-14 September 2015 ------------- GENERAL CHAIR ------------- Jifeng He (East China Normal University, China) ----------------- PROGRAM CO-CHAIRS ----------------- Zhiqiu Huang (Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, China) Jun Sun (Singapore University of Technology and Design) ----------------- STEERING COMMITTE ----------------- Keijiro Araki (Kyushu University, Japan) Shengchao Qin (Teesside University, UK) Jifeng He (East China Normal University, China) Huibiao Zhu (East China Normal University, China) Michael Hinchey (Lero, Ireland) ----------------- PROGRAM COMITTIEE ----------------- TBA ---------------- ORGANIZING CHAIR ---------------- Ou Wei (Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, China) ---------------- PUBLICITY CHAIRS ---------------- Jun Hun (Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, China) Jun Pang (University of Luxembourg) Yu Zhou (Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, China)
