                      Call for Papers
              First International Symposium on
    Generative and Component-Based Software Engineering
                         (GCSE'99)

           http://www-stja.transit-online.de/gcse/

                   September 28-30, 1999

                        Messe Erfurt
                      Erfurt, Germany


     Co-hosted with the Smalltalk and Java in  Industry  and
     Education Conference '99 (STJA'99) and organized by the
     Working Group "Generative and Component-Based  Software
     Engineering"  of the German "Gesellschaft fuer Informa-
     tik" under the auspices of the STJA Foundation.


Intention

     Component-based software  development  is  expected  to
bring  a  productivity increase to software development com-
parable to the introduction of the assembly line in manufac-
turing. Unfortunately, current component technologies suffer
from several problems. For example, increasing the  general-
ity  and size of components usually causes complexity explo-
sion and performance degradation; large configuration spaces
are not managed efficiently; components suffer from incompa-
tibilities  and   redundant   implementations   of   similar
features.   Generative  approaches  have  the  potential  to
address these  problems  with  techniques  such  as  domain-
specific  optimizations,  automated  configuration, and gen-
erating components and systems from  smaller  components  or
more   abstract   representations.   Both   generative   and
component-oriented approaches require  changes  in  analysis
and  design  methods, particularly, to move their focus from
single systems to system families.

     The  goal  of  this  symposium  is  to  bring  together
researchers  and  practitioners from different areas related
to generative development  and  component-based  engineering
and  to  stimulate  integrative  work.  The  symposium  will
include both a technical papers session  (Sept.  29-30)  and
pre-conference tutorials (Sept. 28).

     Topics The relevant topics include, but are not limited
to:

     Integration of Generative and Component-Based Approaches
     Metaprogramming Systems
     Open Compilers and Open Programming Environments
     Template Metaprogramming
     Active Libraries
     Reflection
     Modularly Extensible Languages
     Domain-Specific Languages
     Aspect-Oriented Programming
     Application Generators
     Transformation Systems
     Partial Evaluation
     Component Engineering
     Component-Based Development
     Integration of forward and reverse engineering


Papers combining concepts from more than one topic area  are
preferred.

Submission Guidelines In order to foster a  lively  exchange
of  perspectives  on the conference topics, the program com-
mittee encourages contributions from  both  researchers  and
practitioners.  Please  submit  papers in English either via
e-mail (accepted formats: MS Word, Postscript Level 2,  PDF;
large  files should be compressed) or in paper (3 copies) in
the following categories:


     Research Paper (10 pages)

     Experience Report (3-6 pages) to the following address:

     Ulrich.Eisenecker@T-Online.de

     or

     Ulrich W. Eisenecker
     Bannholzweg 46
     69151 Neckargemuend
     Germany

Detailed submission guidelines and further updates  will  be
published at
