[SATToSE] SOHeal@ICSE2019 Call for Papers and Talk Proposals

SoHeal 2019: 2nd International Workshop on Software Health Tuesday, May 28, 2019 Montreal, Canada - co-located with ICSE 2019 https://soheal.github.io/ https://twitter.com/iw_soheal As can be witnessed by recent initiatives such as the Linux Foundation’s CHAOSS project (https://chaoss.community/) on community health analytics and the SecoHealth (https://secohealth.github.io/) research project on software ecosystem health, the research community and the industry have realized the need for a socio-technical perspective concerning software health. SoHeal aims to enable and promote collaboration between academia and industry, unifying the views on software health of researchers and practitioners. The workshop's goals are to: (1) raise awareness of practitioners' problems with software health; (2) familiarize practitioners with the progress made by academia; and (3) connect the two communities to further advance the body of knowledge and state of the practice on software health. Factors impacting software health can vary depending on the viewpoint of the involved stakeholders: process factors, technical factors concerning the source code and related software artefacts, social factors concerning the communities of software contributors and users, and business factors concerning commercial aspects of the software product. Because of this variety, there is no clear definition of what constitutes software health, since it encompasses many different development and evolution attributes, including success, longevity, growth, resilience, survival, diversity, sustainability, etc. Topics for contributions include but are not limited to: - social, technical and business aspects of software health - software health at the individual, team or community level - software health at the software project or ecosystem level - open source vs. industrial experiences with software health - software health definition and modelling - software health measurement and assessment - qualitative or quantitative studies about software health - prediction or recommendation models to predict health issues or improve health - software health tools and dashboards (e.g. for analytics and visualization) CALL FOR RESEARCH PAPERS ************************ We invite position papers of up to 8 pages (including figures, tables and references), to be submitted through EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=soheal2019).
