                                CALL FOR PAPERS

        9th INT. WORKSHOP ON ENGINEERING SERVICE ORIENTED APPLICATIONS

                                   WESOA 2013

          Associated with ICSOC 2013 December 2, 2013, Berlin, Germany
                             http://www.wesoa.org/

                   Abstract submissions due: August 23, 2013

OBJECTIVES
==========

Service-oriented applications play an important role in enterprise
computing and
more recently in the field of cloud computing. While there is an agreement
about
the   main  principles   for  designing   and  developing   such
 applications,
methodologies  and  tools  that  support  the  development  of
 service-oriented
applications are still  a subject of  intensive research. It  is recognized
that
traditional software engineering approaches require extensions in the
context of
service-oriented computing and that there  is a need for engineering
 methods to
support the development of software services. In this area, close
 collaboration
between  the  research  community and  industry  practitioners  is
essential  to
develop  comprehensive  engineering  methodologies and  tools  that
 support the
entire lifecycle of service-oriented applications.

The WESOA workshop complements the ICSOC conference by focusing on core
 service
-oriented software engineering issues  while keeping pace with  new
developments
in  mobile,  social,  big data  and  cloud  computing research.  Our  aim
 is to
facilitate  exchange  and evolution  of  ideas in  service  engineering
research
across multiple disciplines. We  encourage participation of researchers  as
well
as practitioners from academia and industry fostering connections and
 synergies
between these groups. To promote  collaboration the WESOA workshop has  a
highly
interactive   format   with  technical   sessions   complemented  by
extensive
discussions. WESOA 2013  will continue a  successful series of  ICSOC
workshops.
Over the past eight years, WESOA has demonstrated its relevance by
attracting  a
large number of  contributors and participants.  WESOA high-quality papers
 have
been published in the Springer LNCS series and in a special issue of the
 IJCSSE
journal.

GENERAL TOPICS
==============

WESOA 2013  encourages a  multidisciplinary perspective  and welcomes
 papers on
topics that include, but are not limited to the following:

- Software service development lifecycle methodologies and processes
- Service design and service design metrics
- Distributed and collaborative software service development
- Service-oriented reference models and frameworks
- Architectural styles and standards for software service systems (incl.
SOA)
- Management and governance of service engineering projects
- Models, languages and methods for service-oriented analysis and design
- Costing, valuation and quality metrics of software service design
- Requirements-engineering for software service systems
- Service-oriented business process modelling (choreography/orchestration)
- Validation, verification and testing of software service systems
- Service assembly, composition and aggregation models and languages
- Model-driven SOA and service systems development
- Reverse engineering of software service systems
- Tool support for software service engineering
- Engineering of cloud services and service applications in the cloud
- Service engineering for context-awareness and mobile devices
- Engineering service-oriented applications in social network contexts

IMPORTANT DATES
===============

Paper Submission Due: August 30, 2013
 Notification of Acceptance: October 14, 2013
Camera-Ready Copy Due: October 31, 2013
 Workshop Date: December 2, 2013

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
=======================

Authors are invited to submit original, previously unpublished research
 papers.
Papers should  be written  in English  and must  not exceed  12 pages,
 strictly
following Springer LNCS  style including all  text, references, appendices,
 and
figures. Please,  submit papers  via the  WESOA conference  management tool

 the
Springer Web page: http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html

All submissions will  be peer-reviewed by  members of the  international
program
committee.  Paper  acceptance  will  be  based  on  originality,
significance,
technical  soundness,  and  clarity of  presentation.  Accepted  papers
will  be
included in the  workshop proceedings, and  circulated to participants
 prior to
the event. Workshop proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag.

At least one author  of an accepted paper  must register and participate
 in the
workshop. Registration is subject to the terms, conditions and procedure of
