QUALITY ORIENTED REUSE OF SOFTWARE (QUORS’ 2009)

GOAL OF THE WORKSHOP |
|
With the advent of emerging software systems and advances in software reuse, the level of software reuse has recently been raised to services in SOA, large-scale components and agglomeration of components in the advanced context of service-oriented systems, application frameworks, design patterns and software product lines. Systematic and large-scale reuse of reusable assets at multiple development levels is improving the efficiency of software development activities significantly in terms of cost and time. New approaches and products keep emerging from research community and industry. However, previous research in software reuse mainly focused on the functional aspect of a system, and tended to ignore the quality aspects or put them at a trivial place. Modern computing models tend to be globally distributed, pervasive, and dynamically adaptive. These systems, such as SOA, mobile and pervasive computing, and embedded systems, have imposed more rigorous quality requirements on software development technologies including reuse-based paradigms such as component-based development, design patterns, service-based system engineering and software product lines. The above situation makes it a challenge to meet the non-functional requirements of a software system and meanwhile enjoy the benefits of substantial software reuse. Recently, the research community and industry have been aware of the above weakness and much work has been ongoing. In this workshop we wish to bring together researchers and practitioners to share research results, advances and practical experiences under the banner of “Quality Oriented Reuse of Software in the Context of Emerging Applications”. The workshop will act as a forum for active discussion, idea stimulation and communication. |
|
The workshop will bring together researchers and developers from academia and industry for advancing the methodology and technology of software reuse which emphasizes meeting strict quality requirements, such as dependability, agility and performance, particularly in the context of emerging types of computing systems. The workshop seeks new approaches, system architectures and tools that facilitate the quality aspects of software reuse technologies. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
|
|
PARTICIPANTS |
|
Researchers and practitioners in software reuse, software evolution, emerging software systems such as SOA, mobile computing and embedded software, testing and quality assurance and all other relevant areas. The chairs expect to bring to the workshop researchers and practitioners worldwide from research institutes, universities and industries. |

Papers must be submitted electronically via the QUORS 2009 Submission Page (to be set up soon). Please follow the instructions posted on the web site. The format of submitted papers should follow the guidelines for IEEE conference proceedings, i.e., 8.5" x 11", Two-Column Format (PDF, DOC); Layout Guide (PDF, DOC). The paper should not exceed 4000 words or 6 pages in IEEE paper format including all figures, tables, and references. Any problem, please contact the workshop chair x.liu@napier.ac.uk . All papers will be reviewed by the program committee according to its originality, significance, correctness, presentation and relevance. We also encourage authors to present position papers on practical studies and experiments, critique of existing work, emerging issues, and novel ideas under development. Papers can be submitted as either regular papers, short papers, or fast abstracts. Acceptance and final category depends on reviewer feedback. Accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings of the 33rd IEEE Computer Software and Applications Conference (COMPSAC 2009) by IEEE Computer Society Press, indexed through INSPEC and EI Index (Elsevier's Engineering Information Index), and automatically included in the IEEE Digital Library. At least one of the authors of each accepted paper or fast abstract must register as a full participant of the workshop to have the paper or fast abstract published in the proceedings. Each accepted paper must be presented in person by an author.
