21st Belgium-Netherlands Software Evolution Workshop https://benevol2022.github.io/ Mons, Belgium 12-13 September 2022 Overview: The goal of BENEVOL is to bring together researchers who are working in the field of software evolution and maintenance. BENEVOL offers an informal forum to meet and to discuss new ideas, important problems and obtained research results The 21st edition of BENEVOL will be held in Mons on September 12-13, 2022; this is the first in-person edition of BENEVOL since Covid-19. The organizing team is looking forward to meeting once again in person and having fruitful discussions during BENEVOL! Call for Papers: Contributions are solicited on all aspects of software maintenance and evolution. BENEVOL accepts submissions in two categories: Technical papers (max 4 pages main text + 1 page of references) will undergo a mild yet constructive review. We explicitly solicit papers in the early stages of research, which are still rather rough around the edges and would benefit from feedback from the community. Technical papers will be reviewed by at least three members of the program committee, assessing whether they are within the scope of BENEVOL (i.e., software maintenance and evolution) and meet its quality criteria. Authors will be asked to improve their paper and submit a camera ready version that will be published in the CEUR-WS.org workshop proceedings. Presentation abstracts (max 1 page) report on research results without inclusion in the proceedings. They will only be reviewed for relevance and they will be made available on the website of the workshop. Presentation abstracts can either be novel research results that should not be included in the proceedings or results that have already been published, or that are ready to be submitted to a conference or a journal. Of particular interest are summaries that try to provoke discussion, initiate challenging new avenues, etc. More information about the submission guidelines can be found on the BENEVOL website https://benevol2022.github.io/ Important Dates: Submission deadline: June 15, 2022 Author notification: July 12, 2022 Camera ready: August 12, 2022 Workshop: September 12-13, 2022 Organisation Committee: - General Chair: Tom Mens, University of Mons, Belgium - Program Chairs: -- Mairieli Wessel, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands -- Eleni Constantinou, Eindhoven University of Technology, The Netherlands - Publicity Chairs: -- Natarajan Chidambaram, University of Mons, Belgium -- Pooya Rostami Mazrae, University of Mons, Belgium Program Committee: Alexandre Bergel, University of Chile Carolin Brandt, Delft University of Technology John Businge, University of Antwerp Alexandre Decan, University of Mons Xavier Devroey, University of Namur Felipe Ebert, Jheronimus Academy of Data Science Maliheh Izadi, Delft University of Technology Julia Lawall, Inria-Whisper Ivano Malavolta, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam Gregorio Robles, Universidad Rey Juan Carlos Alexander Serebrenik, Eindhoven University of Technology Damian Andrew Tamburri, Eindhoven University of Technology - Jeronimus Academy of Data Science Andy Zaidman, Delft University of Technology Vadim Zaytsev, Universiteit Twente Ahmed Zerouali, Vrije Universiteit Brussel
