----------------------------------------------------------------------
Overview 

Automation plays an important role in current aspect-oriented software
development (AOSD) research. With the growing acceptance of AOSD as a
software development technique, dedicated support for analysis of
aspectual artifacts is needed at the various stages of software
development.

Developers need to be able to understand, visualize, specify, verify
and test aspect-oriented requirements, architectures, designs and
programs to make it an industrially viable technology. Tool support is
further needed for the identification of latent (non-modularized)
crosscutting concerns in legacy software and for their subsequent
refactoring into aspects.

One of the aims for this workshop is to bring together Asian
researchers who are tackling the problems of advanced separation of
concerns, but who are not yet connected to this growing, thriving
community. The workshop targets both newcomers and experts. The former
will receive an introduction to AOSD, and the latter will be provided
with a forum for exchanging and discussing novel research ideas.

Keynote Speaker

  Gregor Kiczales, University of British Columbia, Canada 

Submissions 

There are two ways to get involved with the workshop: by presenting
novel research, or by presenting general insights into
AOSD. Submissions should be sent in PDF format via email to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] by June 23, 2006. All submissions will be
reviewed by at least two members of our program committee of
international AOSD researchers. Authors will be notified of the
acceptance or rejection of their submissions by July 28, 2006.
 
Important Dates 

  Submission Deadline: June 23 2006 
  Notification Date:   July 28 2006 
  Final Version:       August 30 2006 
  Workshop Date:       August 27, 2006 

Research Papers: 

Research papers should present preliminary work into the state of the
art of automation for AOSD. These papers will be published in a
workshop reader, which will also be assigned an International Standard
Book Number (ISBN). We invite novel contributions of 4-6 pages (IEEE
Format) on any AOSD topic including (but not limited to):

  - Applications and tools
  - Software architectures and product lines 
  - Aspect interference and Composition
  - Contracts, components and aspects
  - Model Driven Architecture and UML
  - Software development methods and patterns
  - Reverse engineering and refactoring
  - Reflection and meta programming
  - Semantics and type systems
  - Verification, validation and testing
  - Distributed systems and middleware
  - Evolution and adaptability, Evaluation and metrics 

Essays, Positions, and Pedagogical Submissions: 

We also invite papers that reflect on AOSD in general, and that can
provide insights into the world of AO. These papers do not need to
introduce novel research, but instead should be composed as
instructional, essay-style, or opinion on AOSD. These submissions will
be published on the workshop website.
