[SATToSE] About the mailing list.

To all: please use the new mailing list sattose@list.info.unibe.ch<mailto:sattose@list.info.unibe.ch> from now on. This new mailing list is hosted at SCG in Bern and run by Oscar and me. All addresses from the old mailing list have been moved (and some corrected) to the new mailing list, so you should also have received this mail and the call for papers and participation via the new list. (If not, let me know and I’ll add your address to the new list.) For the record, the old and now obsolete mailing list was sattose@listes.uclouvain.be<mailto:sattose@listes.uclouvain.be> , the new one is sattose@list.inf.unibe.ch<mailto:sattose@list.inf.unibe.ch> Friendly greetings, Kim Mens On 06 May 2016, at 18:54, Anya Helene Bagge <anya@ii.uib.no<mailto:anya@ii.uib.no>> wrote: Dear SATToSErs, We are eagerly awaiting your submissions for this summer's SATToSE in Bergen. For more information about submission, registration and travel, please visit the website (http://sattose.org/2016) or see below. See you in Bergen! Anya & Mircea ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Call for Papers Ninth Seminar on Advanced Techniques & Tools for Software Evolution SATToSE 2016 11–13 July 2016 – Bergen (Norway) http://sattose.org/2016 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ OVERVIEW SATToSE is the Seminar Series on Advanced Techniques & Tools for Software Evolution. Its 9th edition takes place in Bergen, Norway, between Monday 11 and Wednesday 13 July 2016. The goal of SATToSE is to gather both undergraduate and graduate students to showcase their research, exchange ideas, improve their communication skills, attend and contribute technology showdown and hackathons – and to interact with senior members of the research community. SATToSE will host invited talks, submitted talks, tutorials and a hackathon, and will foster interactions among the participants, stimulating lively debates and discussions around the topics of interest of the event. We expect attendees to be active participants and not just passive listeners – presenters should be open to and encourage questions and discussions during their talks. TOPICS 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: * Formalisms, notations, theories, methods, and languages for expressing software evolution * 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 * Conformance checking, inconsistency management, synchronisation, differencing, comparison, versioning, impact analysis of evolving models * Software evolution for emerging paradigms * Coupled evolution of meta-models, models and transformations * Mega-modelling evolution, and evolution of mega-models * Classification of (co-)evolution scenarios * Reliability and security aspects of software (co-)evolution * Negative research results in software evolution * Software ecosystem evolution INVITED SPEAKERS INCLUDE: * Venera Ardounova, Washington State University * Oscar Nierstrasz, University of Bern * Romain Robbes, University of Chile * Gregorio Robles, Universidad Rey Juan Carlos * Aiko Yamashita, Oslo and Akershus University College of Applied Sciences HACKATHON This year's hackaton will expose participants to tools, methods and data obtained with the MetricsGrimoire toolset, a mature, industrial-strength toolset to obtain data from software repositories, that is available as free software/open source and developed together with a lively community. The Metrics-Grimoire toolset is the results of over a decade of development, and since 2013, after the creation of Bitergia, the technological basis of a start-up that offers and sells results and analysis to free/open source software companies and communities. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Contributions are managed through EasyChair https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sattose2016 We solicit extended abstracts of 2–5 pages, in one of the following forms: * work in progress presentations – early ideas and achievements that you want to share with the community and get feedback on * publication summaries – overview of research results already published or ready to be submitted to a conference or a journal * technology showdown demonstrations – technical explanation of important features of your framework, library or tool To submit your contribution, you need to specify: * title of the presentation * list of author(s) * extended abstract of your presentation * desired category of your work Contributions should be formatted in the CEUR WS one column style with page numbers. See http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/samplestyles/. All submissions will be screened for scope and compatibility by the program committee, which will provide feedback for improving the abstract and preparing the talk. All contributions accepted for presentation will receive 10–30 minutes during the event for presentation and discussion. Submitters will also be offered the opportunity to receive feedback and guidance to improve their submission towards a formally published paper, in a SATToSE post-proceedings issue of an open access journal. All the presented slides and pointers to related resources will be collected and will be made available.
