== KEYNOTE ==

- Marjan Sirjani, Mälardalen University

- TITLE: Reactive Systems: From Requirements to Verifiable Models to Code

- ABSTRACT: Software systems are complicated, and the scientific and 
engineering methodologies for software development are relatively young. We 
need robust methods for handling the ever-increasing complexity of software 
systems that are now in every corner of our lives. In this talk I will focus on 
asynchronous event-based reactive systems and show how we start from the 
requirements, move to actor-based models, verify the models for correctness, 
and build executable codes based on that. I show how we can use the 
architecture design and sequence diagrams to build the behavioral model, and 
the state diagrams to write the properties of interest, and then use model 
checking to check the properties. We then refine the verified models to develop 
the executable code. The natural mappings among the models for requirements, 
the formal models, and the executable code improve the effectiveness and 
efficiency of the approach. It also helps in runtime monitoring and adaptation.

== SPECIAL ISSUE ==

During the last three decades, automation in internet services and applications 
development has gone mainstream. Software development teams strive to automate 
as much of the software development activities as possible. Automation helps, 
in fact, to reduce development time and cost, as well as to concentrate 
knowledge by bringing quality into every step of the development process. 
Realizing high-quality internet services and applications requires producing 
software that is efficient, error-free, cost-effective, and that satisfies 
customer requirements. Thus, one of the most crucial factors impacting software 
quality concerns not only the automation of the development process but also 
the ability to verify the outcomes of each process activity and the goodness of 
the resulting software product as well.

This JISA Thematic Series aims at new automated software development methods 
and techniques, compositional verification theories, integration architectures, 
flexible and dynamic composition, and automated planning mechanisms.

We seek contributions at various levels: from foundational aspects to concrete 
application experiments; from modeling to verification and analysis; from 
deployment to execution; from (industrial) experience papers and case-studies, 
to tool demonstrations and visionary papers; papers describing novel research 
contributions and innovative applications are of particular interest

== IMPORTANT DATES ==

- First response to authors: December 22nd, 2019 

== TOPICS OF INTEREST (although not limited to) ==

- Specification and design of services and applications

[Hol-info] [Springer JISA journal] CfP - Thematic Series on Verification and Composition for the Internet of Services and Things

2016-05-30 Thread alexander . perucci

 Call for Papers 

Springer Journal of Internet Services and Applications (JISA) - 


Thematic Series on Verification and Composition for the Internet of Services 
and Things - 



The Internet of Services and Things promotes a distributed computing 
environment that will be inhabited by a virtually infinite number of software 
services and things. Within this context, software systems will increasingly be 
built by reusing and composing together software services and things 
distributed over the Internet.

The Internet of Services and Things is thus radically changing the way software 
will be produced, verified and used, and calls for new software composition 
paradigms and patterns, flexible infrastructures and integration architectures, 
as well as novel modeling and verification methods. Despite the great interest 
in software composition and verification methods, when developing service- and 
thing-based software systems, strong challenges remain in place.

This JISA Thematic Series aims at new verification and composition techniques 
able to meet the requirements of modern applications, counteracting the 
specialization of traditional approaches in order to deal with heterogeneity, 
dynamicity, adaptation, large scale, mobility, security, etc. We seek 
contributions at various levels: from foundational aspects to concrete 
application experiments; from modeling to verification and analysis; from 
componentization to composition; and from deployment to execution. 

 Topics include, but are not limited to the following: 

Verification and Composition for the Internet of Services and Things
- Engineering Principles
- Requirement Engineering
- Development Processes
- Design and Programming
- Model Checking 
- Verification and Validation
- Model-Driven Development Methods and Tools 

Run-Time Support for Verifying and Composing Services and Things 
- Middleware (description, publication, discovery, access, etc.)
- Convergence and Integration
- Monitoring and Coordination 
- Scalability, Mobility, Heterogeneity

QoS Verification of Service- and Thing-based Systems
- Performance, Reliability and Availability Modeling and Evaluation 
- Security (vulnerabilities, malwares, countermeasures, etc.)
- Trust, Privacy, and Sustainability

Crosscutting Concerns
- Pervasiveness
- Context- and Resource-awareness
- Semantic-awareness
- Seamlessness
- Adaptation
- Decentralized vs. Centralized Service Composition Approaches 

Tools, Case studies, Use cases
- Smart grid, Smart house, Smart cities, Sustainable and Green Systems
- Killer applications 


JISA is an open access journal. Recent papers can be downloaded from

[Apologies for multiple postings]

==  FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS ==

1st International Workshop on Formal to Practical Software Verification and 
Composition (VeryComp 2016)

Co-located event of STAF 2016 (http://staf2016.conf.tuwien.ac.at/) 
Wien, Austria - July 4th 2016

Web site: verycomp2016.disim.univaq.it

== IMPORTANT DATES ==

Paper submissions: April 18, 2016
Notification of authors: May 25, 2016
Camera-ready copies: June 20, 2016

== THEMES AND OBJECTIVES ==

Nowadays, modern applications are increasingly realized as distributed systems 
composing existing pieces of software that autonomically cooperates to achieve 
a common goal. As a matter of fact, this calls for new software composition 
paradigms, and patterns, modeling and verification methods that are practical 
and usable on one hand and formal on the other. Despite the great interest in 
practical Software Composition and Formal Verification in their isolation, no 
common and integrated approaches have been established yet. VeryComp promotes 
contributions related to the subject at different levels: from modelling and 
verification to analysis, from componentization to composition. Foundational 
contributions as well as concrete application experiments are sought.

VeryComp 2016 welcomes research papers, experience papers and tool 
presentations; nevertheless, papers describing novel research contributions and 
innovative applications are of particular interest. Details on workshop goals 
and themes can be found at: http://verycomp2016.disim.univaq.it

All accepted papers will be published as part of a Springer LNCS Proceedings 
Volume (Lecture Notes in Computer Science): http://www.springer.com/lncs

Furthermore, selected participants will be invited to submit an extended 
version of their papers after the workshop to a Thematic Series of the Springer 
JISA journal on Verification and Composition for the Internet of Services and 
Things (to appear soon on Springer).

Each submitted paper will undergo a formal peer review process by at least 3 PC 
members. Contributions can be:

- Regular papers (maximum 12 pages): In this category fall those contributions 
which propose novel research contributions, address challenging problems with 
innovative ideas, or offer practical contributions in the application of FM and 
SE approaches for building FI applications via software composition. Regular 
papers should clearly describe the situation or problem tackled, the relevant 
state of the art, the position or solution suggested and the potential benefits 
of the contribution.

- Short papers (maximum 8 pages): This category includes tool demonstrations, 
position papers, industrial experiences and case-studies, and visionary papers. 
Authors of papers reporting industrial experiences are encouraged to make their 
experimental results available for use by reviewers. Similarly, authors of tool 
demonstration papers should make their tool available for use by reviewers.

 devoted to FOCLASA 2015. Selected
participants will be invited to submit an extended version of their
papers after the workshop. These extended versions will be reviewed by
an international program committee, which will decide on their final
publication on the special issue. In the last few editions of FOCLASA, a
special issue of Science of Computer Programming has been dedicated to

Title:
Towards Dynamic Updates in Service Composition

Abstract:
We survey our work on choreographies and behavioural contracts in multiparty 
interactions. In particular theories of behavioural contracts are presented 
which enable reasoning about correct service composition (contract compliance) 
and service substitutability (contract refinement preorder) under different 
assumptions concerning service communication: synchronous communication with 
patient non-preemptable or impatient invocations, or asynchronous 
communication. Correspondingly, relations concerning behavioural contracts and 
choreographic descriptions are considered, where a contract for each 
communicating party is, e.g., derived by projection.
Contract refinement relations are induced as the maximal preoders which 
preserve contract compliance and global traces. The obtained preorders are then 
characterized in terms of a new form of testing, called compliance testing 
(where not only tests must succeed but also the system under test), and 
compared with classical preorders. Moreover, recent work about adaptable 
choreographies and behavioural contracts is presented, where the theory above 
is extended to update mechanisms allowing choreographies/contracts to be 
modified at run-time by internal (self-adaptation) or external intervention.

--  Call for Papers --

SCART 2015: 1st International Workshop on the ART of Software Composition, 
co-located with SEFM 2015 – York, UK.

SCART 2015 (http://scart2015.disim.univaq.it/) provides the opportunity for 
discussing how the FI affects the traditional SE methods and tools, and how 
facing its complexity in terms of scalability, heterogeneity, and dinamicity 
promotes the integration of FM within SE practices. We seek answers on how the 
rigorousness of FM assists software engineers while designing, developing, 
validating and operating software systems for the FI, which are build via 
correct-by-construction service composition. The workshop constitutes a forum 
for scientists and engineers in academia and industry to present and discuss 
their latest research and development.

SCART 2015 welcomes research papers, experience papers and tool presentations; 
nevertheless, papers describing novel research contributions and innovative 
applications are of particular interest. Details on workshop goals and themes 
can be found at: http://scart2015.disim.univaq.it.

(http://www.disim.univaq.it/staf2015/projects-showcase/) is dedicated to 
national and international projects dissemination and cooperation. The event 
provides the opportunity for researchers and practitioners (from both academia 
and industry) involved in completed, to be started or ongoing research projects 
related to Software Technologies - Applications and Foundations, and hence to 
the topics of the leading conferences federated by STAF'15 and other co-located 
events.

The Projects Showcase welcomes contributions disseminating the objectives of 
the project, outcomes of specific deliverables, the final outcome of the 
project, as well as, advances beyond the state of the art, overall innovation 
potential, exploitation approach and (expected) impact, marketing value, 
barriers and obstacles. Thus, the Projects Showcase at STAF'15 represents a 
concrete opportunities for participants to share experience, ideas, on-going 
work, and knowledge that can lead to fruitful collaborations and cross-sectoral 
concertations among projects.

[Hol-info] SCART 2015 - 1st Call for Papers (at SEFM 2015)

2015-03-05 Thread Alexander Perucci


[Apologies for multiple postings] 




-- First Call for Papers -- 




SCART 2015: 1st International Workshop on the ART of Software Composition, 
co-located with SEFM 2015 – York, UK. 




SCART 2015 ( http://scart2015.disim.univaq.it/ ) provides the opportunity for 
discussing how the FI affects the traditional SE methods and tools, and how 
facing its complexity in terms of scalability, heterogeneity, and dinamicity 
promotes the integration of FM within SE practices. We seek answers on how the 
rigorousness of FM assists software engineers while designing, developing, 
validating and operating software systems for the FI, which are build via 
correct-by-construction service composition. The workshop constitutes a forum 
for scientists and engineers in academia and industry to present and discuss 
their latest research and development. 




SCART 2015 welcomes research papers, experience papers and tool presentations; 
nevertheless, papers describing novel research contributions and innovative 
applications are of particular interest. Details on workshop goals and themes 
can be found at: http://scart2015.disim.univaq.it . 




At SCART 2015 we will have a Keynote by Paola Inverardi (Tile and abstract to 
be announced) - http://scart2015.disim.univaq.it/?page_id=139 




== IMPORTANT DATES == 




Paper submissions: May 22, 2015 
Notification of authors: June 19, 2015 
Camera-ready copies: July 3, 2015 




== PAPER SUBMISSION == 




Workshop papers must follow the SEFM 2015 Format and Submission Guidelines: 

http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/sefm2015/ 




Each submitted paper will undergo a formal peer review process by at least 3 PC 
members. Contributions can be: 




Regular papers (maximum 12 pages): In this category fall those contributions 
which propose novel research contributions, address challenging problems with 
innovative ideas, or offer practical contributions in the application of FM and 
SE approaches for building FI applications via software composition. Regular 
papers should clearly describe the situation or problem tackled, the relevant 
state of the art, the position or solution suggested and the potential benefits 
of the contribution. 




Short papers (maximum 8 pages): This category includes tool demonstrations, 
position papers, industrial experiences and case-studies, well-pondered and 
sufficiently documented visionary papers. Authors of papers reporting 
industrial experiences are strongly encouraged to make their experimental 
results available for use by reviewers. Similarly, case-study papers should 
describe significant case-studies and the complete development should be made 
available for use by reviewers. Tool demonstration papers should explain 
enhancements made in comparison to previously published work. Authors of tool 
demonstration papers should make their tool available for use by reviewers.
