It is a truism that industrial software
needs to be delivered more quickly and with higher levels of quality.
These demands are set in a
dynamic project environment of frequently changing technologies, short-staffed
projects and globally distributed development teams. At the same time,
global competition is forcing companies that develop software to cut
cost significantly in order to compete. Amid these pressures, new software
development lifecycle process alternatives have emerged from agile methods
(such as extreme programming) to well-planned product line development.
Open source software development
is ramping up, many projects are being contracted out, either in whole
or in part, and the software may be developed in
multiple locations around the world resulting in a greater need for
good communication and co-ordination. Security also is an issue that is
getting
increased attention. Software process modeling and software process
simulation are suitable means to successfully address these issues in many
ways.
The goal of the workshop is to bring together academics and practitioners
interested in the area of software process modeling and simulation
as well as important industrial issues related to cost estimation and business
process design. ProSim 2005 will continue the tradition set in previous
workshops as being an international forum for presenting current
research
themes and applications, and discussing various approaches to discover
underlying similarities at both the applied and theoretical levels.

Component-based Software Engineering
(CBSE) is concerned with the development of software intensive systems
from reusable parts (components), the development
of reusable parts, and system maintenance and improvement by means of
component replacement and customization. A long-standing theme of the
CBSE series is to promote a science and technology foundation for achieving
predictable quality in software systems through the use of software component
technology and its associated software engineering practices. CBSE 2005, "Software
Components at Work," continues this theme, but with a special emphasis
on the application of software components to real-world problems. Reports
on the success and failure of CBSE to large-scale performance-critical
systems are an essential ingredient to improving the state of the art
and practice of CBSE. The ICSE CBSE symposium has a track record of bringing
together researchers and practitioners from a variety of disciplines
to promote a better understanding of CBSE from a diversity of perspectives,
and to engage in lively discussion and debate. CBSE 2005 is open to all
participants interested in CBSE and related areas, from both universities
and industry. |

2nd
ACM Symposium on Software Visualization
(SoftVis
2005)
14 - 15 May 2005
Plenary - St. Louis Ballroom F

Software visualization encompasses the development and evaluation of
methods for graphically representing different aspects of software, including
its structure, its abstract and concrete execution, and its evolution.
Visualization has always been a part of software development. Advancing
technologies have enabled computer-based visualization to be used throughout
the software development process in various ways such as visual design
representations, visual languages, graphical debugging, and repsentations
of complex software behavior. At the same time, visualization has been
central to software understanding, being used in reverse engineering,
modeling, performance evaluation, and teaching. Software visualization
as a research area requires understanding and working on the underlying
problems from a variety of perspectives including software engineering,
HCI, programming languages, graphics and visualization, and computer
science education. The objective of SoftVis '05 is to provide a first
class venue for researchers of these different backgrounds to discuss
and present all types of original research on software visualization. |

IWPC provides a focused opportunity for
researchers, and industry practitioners, to present and discuss both
the state-of-the art and the state-of-the-practice
in the general area of program comprehension. The event addresses how
program comprehension facilitates such thing as software reuse, inspection,
maintenance/evolution, and reverse engineering.
The two day program includes approximately 25 research paper presentations,
one or two working sessions, and a tools demonstration. Recent IWPC’s
have had 80-100 attending participants.
Papers are of a much higher quality than the typically workshop and present
fresh concepts, studies, and approaches within scope of the event. For
more information please visit www.ieee-iwpc.org. |
