4th International Workshop on Program Comprehension
through Dynamic Analysis (PCODA 2008)
Co-located with the 15th Working Conference on
Reverse Engineering (WCRE 2008)

October 2008, Antwerp, Belgium
-------------------------------------------------------
Dear all,
We are organising the 4th International Workshop on Program Comprehension
Through Dynamic Analysis (PCODA), to be held together with the 15th Working
Conference on Reverse Engineering (WCRE 2008). PCODA 2008 builds upon its three
highly successful predecessors, PCODA 2005, PCODA 2006 and PCODA 2007, where we
had respectively 13, 11 and 13 high-quality submissions.
We hope to build upon the success of the previous editions and for this, we
need your contributions and participation.
The goals of this workshop are to catalogue existing techniques in the field of
program comprehension that use dynamic analysis. To see whether existing
techniques compliment eachother and to identify possible future collaborations.
Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to, the following:
* Theories and models for software comprehension based on dynamic
analysis
* Program comprehension processes and strategies involving
dynamic analysis techniques
* Research methodologies when setting up program comprehension
experiments
* Applications of dynamic analysis techniques to program
comprehension
* Strengths and limitations of existing dynamic analysis techniques
* Trace analysis and exploration techniques
* Techniques for reducing the large size of run-time information
* Hybrid analyses that involve both static and dynamic analysis
* Dynamic analysis tools with an emphasis on program comprehension
* Comparisons between existing tools and approachs
* Dynamic analysis in the context of distributed systems
* Dynamic analysis in the context of webservices (or service oriented
architectures)
* Criteria for evaluating dynamic analysis techniques; setting up
benchmark experiments
* Experiments and case studies with a focus on program comprehension
using dynamic analysis
* Empirical effectiveness studies of tools and approaches
Looking forward to receiving your submissions and seeing you in Antwerp!
Kind regards,
Orla Greevy, Abdelwahab Hamou-Lhadj, David Rothlisberger and Andy Zaidman
