SATToSE 2020

13th Seminar Series on Advanced Techniques & Tools for Software Evolution

http://sattose.org/2020

July 1 - 3, 2020

Virtual event

Overview:

The 13th edition of SATToSE will be held virtually (originally planned to take place in Amsterdam) on July 1-3, 2020. Past editions of SATToSE saw presentations on software visualisation techniques, tools for co-evolving various software artefacts, their consistency management, runtime adaptability and context-awareness, as well as empirical results about software evolution.

The goal of SATToSE is to gather both undergraduate and graduate students to showcase their research, attend and contribute technology showdown and hackathons, exchange ideas and learn from senior/established researchers, as well help them improve their communication skills.

Call for Papers:

Contributions are solicited on all aspects of software and model evolution, practices, and technologies. In particular, we encourage submissions about the following (non-exhaustive) list of topics:

- Supporting tools, processes, and models for managing software evolution

- Industrial needs, case studies and experiences

- Software analytics and visualisation techniques to support software evolution

- Empirical studies in evolution and maintenance

- Program transformation, refactoring, renovation, and migration

- Program and/or data reverse engineering

- Evolution of data-intensive or process-intensive systems

- Approaches of model-driven software evolution

- Software evolution for emerging paradigms

- Coupled evolution of meta-models, models, and transformations

- Classification of evolution scenarios

- Reliability and security aspects of software evolution

- Negative research results in software evolution

- Software ecosystem evolution

- Formalisms, notations, theories, methods, and languages for expressing software evolution

- Conformance checking, inconsistency management, synchronisation, differencing, comparison, versioning, impact analysis of evolving models

SaTToSE 2020 aims to increase the interaction between PhD students and more experienced researchers. For this reason, SATToSE will introduce for the first time the “mentor” concept. Each PhD student submitting a Work-in-Progress paper will have a senior member as a mentor during the seminar (different than their PhD supervisor). The goal is to stimulate discussion between PhD students and senior researchers to provide feedback on their research and promote discussions and collaborations.
