Call for Participation - CHOOSE Forum - Bern - April 11 - Tools for
Managing Software Complexity
On-line registration and a preliminary program for this event are now
available on the CHOOSE web site:
http://www.choose.s-i.ch/
Topic: State of the Art in Tools for Managing Software Complexity
Date: Monday April 11. Full day
Location: Allegro Grand Casino Kursaal Bern
NB: The CHOOSE General Assembly and Elections to the Executive Board
will be held at the start of the lunch break.
Description
-----------
Modern software systems are increasingly large, complex, heterogeneous
and open. Developers and maintainers are increasingly turning towards
advanced tools and environments to help them manage this complexity.
But what do these tools offer? What is the state-of-the-art in such
tools? And do they really help developers with the problems they are
facing today?
This CHOOSE Forum will offer a series of presentations of
state-of-the-art tools for managing, maintaining, analyzing and
reengineering complex software systems. The day will conclude with a
session in which developers in charge of complex software systems will
have the opportunity to assess and evaluate the state-of-the-art.
The day also includes the CHOOSE General Assembly, including reports
from the President and the Treasurer, and elections for the CHOOSE
Executive Board.
