18th IEEE International Conference on Program Comprehension (ICPC)
Braga, Portugal
June 30 -- July 2 2010
http://icpc2010.di.uminho.pt/
****************************************************************************
The International Conference on Program Comprehension (ICPC) is the
principal venue for works in the area of program comprehension as well as a
leading venue for works in the areas of software analysis, reverse
engineering software evolution, and software visualization. ICPC 2010
promises to provide a quality forum for researchers and practitioners from
academia, industry, and government to present and to discuss
state-of-the-art and best-practice results in the field of program
comprehension. ICPC 2010 will be held in Braga, Portugal. Braga is also
known as the "Portuguese Rome" for its concentration of religious
architecture, Roman remains, beautiful churches and museums. Braga is one
of Portugal's principle tourist attractions.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Cognitive theories for program comprehension, including experiments and
case studies
* Comprehension of specific types of software systems, such as web-based
systems, multi-language systems, legacy systems, object-oriented
frameworks, component-based software, product line systems, and other
large-scale systems
* Comprehension in the context of specific lifecycle activities, such as
maintenance, reengineering, migration, security, auditing, inspection
before purchase, and testing
* Visualization in support of program comprehension
A special issue of the Empirical Software Engineering, An International
Journal (http://www.springer.com/computer/programming/journal/10664) will
feature extended, revised versions of the best papers accepted at ICPC
2010.
We are soliciting participation through the submission of research or
experience papers, the organization of working sessions, the presentation
of posters, or tool demonstrations.
TECHNICAL PAPERS
Papers must be original work and are limited to 10 pages for full papers
and 4 pages for short papers, in the IEEE CS proceedings style. Submissions
must not be previously published in, currently submitted to, or currently
in consideration for any journal, book, conference, or workshop. For an
accepted paper to appear in the proceedings, at least one author must
attend the event and present the work. A number of full technical paper
submissions may be accepted as short papers.
WORKING SESSIONS
The ICPC working sessions are forums for small groups of people who are
engaged in research in the same subfield. The working sessions are meant to
foster the exchange of ideas and to advance the state of research through
focused interactions of the participants. The descriptions of the accepted
working sessions will be included in the conference proceedings (up to 4
pages in the IEEE CS proceedings style). The proposals should indicate a
set of issues to be discussed in the session and should indicate some
likely participants.
POSTERS and TOOL DEMOS
Posters describing preliminary research ideas will be exhibited in a
separate session to foster informal an exchange between the exhibitors and
the participants. Poster submissions are not required to cover completed
major research results. A session for tool demonstrations will cover both
industry-strength tools and academic prototypes. Accepted posters and tool
demonstrations will be included in the conference proceedings (up to 2
pages in the IEEE CS proceedings style). The poster/tool proposals should
indicate the novelty of the approach and how the ideas will be presented.
INDUSTRIAL COMPREHENSION CHALLENGE
The main goal of the industrial comprehension challenge track is to
create a dialog between academic researchers and industrial
practitioners. Therefore, we invite proposals for presentations from
industry which discuss the real program comprehension problems that
they are experiencing in their day-to-day work and pose a challenge to
the ICPC audience to help them in solving that problem over the coming
year. We aim for a followup session in the next conference to present
results and discuss challenges in their industrial adoption.
