CALL FOR PAPERS



4th International Conference on Complex, Intelligent and Software Intensive
Systems (CISIS-2010)

Track on “Software Engineering for Distributed Systems”



February 15-18, 2010, Krakow, Poland

URL: http://www.cisis-conference.eu/SE_DS





Scope: Approaches for Engineering Complex Distributed Software-intensive
Systems

Software engineering for distributed systems is concerned with the analysis,
design, implementation, testing, and maintenance of complex distributed
software-intensive systems. The size, complexity, and criticality of
distributed software-intensive systems require innovative and economic
approaches to development, validation, and evolution. In today's competitive
world software quality is a key to success and stability. As software
systems grow larger and get more ubiquitous, the complexities in building
distributed, concurrent systems will rise as software-intensive systems have
to operate in large, open and non-deterministic environments: the complexity
of know-ledge, interaction and adaptation.

This CISIS track provides a forum for researchers and practitioners in
academia, industry and government to share their innovations and experiences
in any aspects of engineering complex distributed software-intensive
systems. Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to:



•Software architecture and design

•Component-based systems

•Model-based software development

•Software Quality of Service

•Systems Evolution

•Quality assurance for distributed software-intensive systems

•Testing, verification, and validation

•Software optimization for power, timing, memory minimization

•Value-based software engineering

•Adaptive Software-Intensive Systems

•Self-Adaptive Software Systems

•Agent Technology

•Knowledge acquisition and management

•Ontologies and semantic methodologies

•Fault tolerance, reliability, availability

•Dependability, safety, security, or usability

•Methodologies for specification, verification, and testing

•Peer-to-peer systems, overlay networks, distributed data management;
space-based computing



We encourage submissions demonstrating the benefits or limitations of
engineering approaches for distributed software-intensive systems through
case studies, experiments, and quantitative data.



Technical Papers should describe innovative research in engineering
activities for distributed software-intensive systems. They should describe
a novel contribution to the field and should carefully support claims of
novelty with citations to the relevant literature. Where a submission builds
upon previous work of the author(s), the novelty of the new contribution
must be clearly described with respect to the previous work. Papers should
also clearly discuss how the results were validated.



Experience Papers should describe a significant experience in applying
methods or technologies for distributed software-intensive systems and
should carefully identify and discuss important lessons learned so other
researchers and/or practitioners can benefit from the experience. We are
especially interested in experience papers that report on industrial
applications.
