                 22nd June 2010, Prague, Czech Republic

In the frame of the CompArch 2010 conference, the Workshop on Component 
Oriented Programming (WCOP) is organised as a Doctoral Symposium for 
young researchers in the area of component based software engineering, 
software architecture and software quality.


WORKSHOP AIM

The doctoral symposium is aimed to give feedback from established 
researchers to promising new ideas in the field of component based 
software engineering, software architecture and software quality to 
young researchers in all phases of their Phd career. Therefore we 
intentionally encourage doctorands / PhD students to submit their 
proposal statements with potentially unfinished and not yet validated 
ideas.


COMPARCH YOUNG INVESTIGATOR AWARD

Newly introduced in 2010, the CompAch Young Investigator Award will 
be given to the best accepted paper of WCOP. The award includes a 
free registration to CompArch and the presentation of the paper 
during the main CompArch programme and the publication of the paper 
in the proceedings of CBSE 2011 or QoSA 2011.


TOPICS

Areas of interest are component based software engineering, software 
architecture and software quality in general. More specifically, 
this includes:

   * software-services (as deployed components) 
   * specification and analysis of quality of service properties
   * predictable assembly of components / compositional reasoning
   * component-oriented development processes
   * traceability between architecture, components and code.
   * components as a means to implement architectures
   * mobile and ubiquitous components for pervasive computer 
     applications
   * security and privacy of component based architectures
   * performance/efficiency and reliability of component-based 
     systems
   * specification and analysis of component-based archutectures
   * deployment attribution / constraints 
   * COP and Model-driven Development (MDA)
   * addressing variability requirements in component-based 
     solutions
   * system design for independent extensibility
   * maintainability and evolution of component based systems
   * component versus application evolution
   * management of component based systems
   * domain-specific (vertical) standards
   * organizational and business aspects of components and software 
     architectures


SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Submitted research proposals should not be longer than 8 pages in 
double column IEEE format. The submitted research proposal should 
address, motivation, idea, benefits and planned next steps as well 
as related work and potential ideas of validation. It is well 
admitted, if proposal primarily aims on discussion than on the 
presentation of solutions. Papers are to be submitted via the 
EasyChair conference system 
(http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wcop2010).


DEADLINES

   * Submission deadline: April 23rd 2010.
   * Notification deadline: May 17th 2010.
   * Submission of camera ready version: May 31st 2010.


PROCEEDINGS

Accepted proposals will be published in a Technical Report of the 
Faculty of Informatics of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). 
The acceptance of a paper requires at least one author to register, 
present and to participate during the discussions of the workshop.

HISTORY

The Workshop on Component Oriented Programming (WCOP) was founded in 
1996 and organised subsequently by Clemens Szyperski, Cuno Pfister, 
Wolfgang Weck, Jan Bosch and Ralf Reussner. Until 2009 it run in a 
series of highly successful workshops mainly at ECOOP, later with 
CompArch. WCOP has traditionally attracted a healthy mix of advanced 
PhD students, junior academics, and industrial researchers presenting 
their latest work in progress. After WCOP'96 focused on the 
fundamental terminology of COP, the subsequent workshops expanded 
into the many related facets of component software. In conjunction 
with CompArch, where the most established conferences of the field 
are bundled, WCOP will play the role of an entry level scientific 
event, targeting submissions with innovative ideas in their early 
state where established members of the community give feedback by 
reviews and the discussions during the symposium. The high number of 
experienced researchers traditionally attending WCOP makes WCOP to 
a particularly interesting workshop for young researchers seeking for 
feedback from the scientific and industrial community.
