4th IEEE Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Software Engineering August 25 - 27, 2010, Taipei, Taiwan, ROC Call-for-Papers IEEE TASE 2010 aims to become a forum for the presentation and discussion of new fundamental ideas in software engineering of large-scale systems. Software engineering of such systems has usually been viewed as the study of principles, guidelines, and empirical rules. To manage the complexity of large-scale software projects, various theories have been proposed. The first three TASE conferences were held in Shanghai, China in June 2007; in Nanjing, China in June 2008; and in Tianjin, China in July 2009. This year, it will be moved to the beautiful campus of National Taiwan University. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Scope of interests includes, but are not limited to, the following: automata, logics, set theory, type theory, process algebrae, probability, game theory, theorem-proving, model-checking, simulation-checking, testing, and simulation. Innovative applications of such theories to the following and other related aspects of software engineering are also highly solicited to IEEE TASE 2010: requirements engineering, specification, model-driven engineering, software architectures and synthesis, 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 computing, semantic web and web services, dependable concurrency, program analysis, software modeling, software simulation, software testing, and software model checking. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Submissions should be in IEEE format and no more than 10 pages for regular papers and 4 pages for poster papers. Proceedings will be published by IEEE. Important dates: Regular Papers: April 2, 2010: Title and abstract submission deadline April 9, 2010: Paper submission deadline (23:59, Apia Time, GMT-11)?
