CALL FOR PAPERS
The 23rd International Conference on Engineering Complex Systems
ICECCS 2018
12-14 December 2018 - Melbourne, Australia
http://formal-analysis.com/iceccs/2018/
------------------------------------------------------------
Important Dates (AoE time)
Abstract submission: 15th June 2018
Paper submission: 22nd June 2018
Notification of acceptance: 22th August 2018
Camera ready copy due: 21th September 2018
We have seen a rapid rising emphasis on design, implement and manage complex
computer systems which are present in every aspect of human activities, such as
manufacturing, communications, defense, transportation, aerospace, hazardous
environments, energy, and health care. The complex computer systems are
frequently distributed over heterogeneous networks and processing large amount
data. Complexity arises from many factors, including the dynamic environments
and scenarios these systems operate in; demanding and sometimes conflicting
requirements in functionality, efficiency, scalability, security,
dependability, inoperability and adaptability; as well as the large variation
in development methodology, programming languages and implementation details.
The key issues in these systems include performance, real-time behavior, fault
tolerance, security, adaptability, development time and cost, and long life
concerns.
The goal of this conference is to bring together industrial, academic, and
government experts, from a variety of application domains and software
disciplines, to discuss how the disciplines' problems and solution techniques
interact within the whole system. Researchers, practitioners, tool developers
and users, and technology transfer experts are all welcome. The scope of
interest includes long-term research issues; near-term requirements and
challenges; established complex systems; emerging promising tools; and
retrospective and prospective reflections of research and development into
complex systems.
Scope and Topics
Authors are invited to submit papers describing original, unpublished research
results, case studies and tools. Papers are solicited in all areas related to
complex computer-based systems, including the causes of complexity and means of
avoiding, controlling, or coping with complexity. Topic areas include, but are
not limited to:
Requirement specification and analysis
Verification and validation
Security and privacy of complex systems
Model-driven development
Reverse engineering and refactoring
Software architecture
Big Data Management
Ambient intelligence, pervasive computing
Ubiquitous computing, context awareness, sensor networks
Design by contract
Agile methods
Safety-critical & fault-tolerant architectures
Adaptive, self-managing and multi-agent systems
Real-time, hybrid and embedded systems
Systems of systems
Cyber-physical systems and Internet of Things (IoT)
Tools and tool integration
Industrial case studies
Applications to SAT/SMT techniques to analysis of complex systems
Different kinds of contributions are sought, including novel research, lessons
learned, experience reports, and discussions of practical problems faced by
industry and user domains. The ultimate goal is to build a rich and
comprehensive conference program that can fit the interests and needs of
different classes of attendees: professionals, researchers, managers, and
students. A program goal is to organize several sessions that include both
academic and industrial papers on a given topic and culminate panels to discuss
relationships between industrial and academic research.
Full Papers
Full papers are divided into two categories: Technical Papers and Experience
Reports. The papers submitted to both categories will be reviewed by program
committee members, and papers accepted in either category will be published in
the conference proceedings. Technical papers should describe original research,
and experience reports should present practical projects carried out in
industry, and reflect on the lessons learnt from them.
Short Papers
Short paper submissions describe early-stage, ongoing or PhD research. All
short papers will be reviewed by program committee members, and accepted short
papers will be published in the conference proceedings.
Paper Submissions
Submitted manuscripts should be in English and formatted in the style of the
double-column CPS format. Full papers should not exceed 10 pages, and short
papers should not exceed 4 pages, including figures, references, and
appendices. All submissions should be in PDF format. Submissions not adhering
to the specified format and length may be rejected immediately, without review.
Please prepare your manuscripts in accordance to the CPS guidelines:
http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html.
We invite all prospective authors to submit their manuscripts via the
ICECCS'18 portal, hosted on EasyChair
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iceccs2018
Conference Proceedings
The conference proceedings will be published by Conference Publishing Services
(CPS) and submitted for EI indexing.
