LASER Summer School on Software Engineering Software Testing: The Practice And The Science September 6-12, 2009 Elba Island, Italy
http://laser.inf.ethz.ch <http://laser.inf.ethz.ch/> Registration Open Goals The LASER school is intended both for researchers (including PhD students) and for professional software engineers and managers who want to benefit from the best in software technology advances. The focus of LASER is resolutely practical, although theory is welcome to establish solid foundations. The format of the school favors extensive interaction between participants and speakers. Topics and speakers Testing used to be the dirty secret of software development: practiced by everyone as the main technique of quality assurance, but without a serious scientific foundation. This is no longer the case; research in recent years has brought considerable advances to the theory of testing and the quality of testing tools. The LASER 2009 summer school presents these advances, both theoretical and practical, addressing the science of testing as well as the concrete solutions available to development teams. The seven speakers are among the top international experts in the field from both academia and industry, having brought major contributions to the progress of testing techniques. The program both for industry practitioners who want to improve their testing process and to scientists who want to explore the concepts in depth and find new research ideas. The speakers are among the most respected experts in the field: * Alberto Avritzer, Siemens * Michel Cukier, University of Maryland * Yuri Gurevich, Microsoft Research * Bertrand Meyer, ETH Zurich and Eiffel Software * Tom Ostrand, AT&T * Mauro Pezzè, University of Milano Bicocca * Elaine Weyuker, AT&T How to apply? Use the online registration form available on the LASER website http://laser.inf.ethz.ch <http://laser.inf.ethz.ch/>. Registration is open. The number of participants is strictly limited to ensure quality interaction with the lecturers and the rest of the audience.
