The First IEEE SERVICES Workshop on the Software Integrating Collective Service, Intelligence and Ecosystem (COSINE): A New Software Development Methodology and Environment

Click here for Preliminary Program

In the last few years, the software integrating Collective Service, Intelligence and Ecosystem (COSINE) has been proposed in order to describe a new software development methodology and environment, aiming at providing a variety of services, aided by several Intelligence approaches, for different types of organizations, which mainly address the advancement of quality of software products and services and the improvement of software products development efficiency. COSINE Software has become important due to several important factors, ranging from the artificial intelligence technology applications, enterprises development, the need for reducing costs, to improving the relationship with the customers. COSINE Software has faced a great challenge in the process of development and implementation, due to the diversity and dynamics of services, software systems operation quality assurance, and adaptive evolution of software products. Today, software services include products as well as other information technology services, and cover almost all areas of social life: from space exploration to national defense science and technology, from industrial production to financial service, as well as weather forecast, transportation, smart home and so on. In this context, IEEE Services 2020 is a natural environment where scientists can meet and discuss how they can offer new tools and techniques to serve COSINE Software. As a community, we have the potential to be a crucial voice in the software development methodology and environment.

This Workshop aims at opening a new insight in a hot topic for both research and industry. In this session on Services in COSINE Software, our aim is to gather industry and academia with respect to the applications of services technology in this important area. The main topics will help discussing services successes and failures, as well as identify the vast unrealized potential of technology in several specialized areas of software development methodology and environment. Topics include network-based Intelligence, software system development, evaluation of software services, software system operation quality assurance, and evolution of software system. The challenges associated with applying artificial intelligence and other technologies to the software domain are numerous and multifaceted.

Topics may include any new technology application to the following domains:

Intelligence Interaction & Collaboration
Knowledge Collaboration Across Heterogeneous Communities
Individual Information Fusion
Individual Behavior Prediction
Communication In 5G Environment
Software Development Paradigm
Software Development Methodology
Software Modeling
Software Platform
Requirement Acquirement
Service Composition
Service Recommendation
Data Mining of Software System
Knowledge Base Construction
Software Testing
Measurement Index
Software Health Assessment
Software Operation Quality Assurance
Software System Dynamic Control Strategy
Adaptive Evolution of Software Systems
