VISSOFT 2015 - Call for Papers: New Ideas or Emerging Results and Tool Demos
3rd IEEE Working Conference on Software Visualization (VISSOFT)
September 27-28, 2015, Bremen, Germany
Paper submission date: June 29, 2015
Notification: July 31, 2015

Software visualization is a broad research area encompassing concepts, methods, tools, and
techniques that assist in a range of software engineering and software development
activities. Covered aspects include the development and evaluation of approaches for
visually analyzing software and software systems, including their structure, execution
behavior, and evolution.
The VISSOFT IEEE Working Conference on Software Visualization continues the history of the
ACM SOFTVIS Symposium on Software Visualization and the IEEE VISSOFT International
Workshop on Visualizing Software for Understanding and Analysis. The conference focuses on
visualization techniques that target aspects of software maintenance and evolution,
program comprehension, reverse engineering, and reengineering, i.e., how visualization
helps professionals to understand, analyze, test and evolve software. We aim to gather
tool developers, experts, users, and researchers from software engineering, information
visualization, computer graphics, and human-computer interaction to discuss theoretical
foundations, algorithms, techniques, tools, and applications related to software
visualization.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Innovative visualization and visual analytics techniques for software engineering data,
such as,
- source code
- static and dynamic dependencies
- software evolution and repositories
- software documentation
- web services
- protocol, log, and performance data
- parallel techniques
- database schemes
- software security and privacy issues
- workflow and business processes
* Visualization to support program comprehension, software testing, and debugging
* Interaction techniques and algorithms for software visualization
* Visualization-based techniques in computer science and software engineering education
* Integration of software visualization tools and development environments
* Empirical evaluation of software visualization
* Industrial experience on using software visualization
VISSOFT features a New Ideas or Emerging Results (NIER) track and a Tool Demo track
related to the list of topics suggested above. Papers are solicited that present original,
unpublished research results and will be rigorously reviewed by an international program
committee.
The NIER contributions (New Ideas and Emerging Results) describe work-in-progress and
preliminary exciting results. Authors should include open questions and even provocative
hypotheses to get early feedback on their research ideas or even support through new
research collaborations.
Tool contributions describe the design or actual utilization of software visualization
tools, with a focus on relevant tool construction aspects or the use of the tool for
gaining new insights. Authors should be prepared to demonstrate their tool at the
conference. The submission may also contain a link to a screencast (video).
All accepted submissions will appear in the conference proceedings and the IEEE Digital
Library.
-== How to Submit ==-
Both types of papers have to be maximum 5 pages long (including bibliography and
annexes).
