After more than ten years of research work in software aging and
rejuvenation, this is the first International event to bring together
researchers and practitioners involved with the theoretical and
experimental aspects of software aging and rejuvenation. As a satellite
event of the premier symposium, ISRRE 2008, this workshop aims to
provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss
the state of the art and the new challenges in software aging and
rejuvenation research, as well as providing a unique opportunity for
establishing collaborations among several research groups interested
in this research field.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
This call is an invitation to all researchers and practitioners with an
interest about the following topics (but not limited to):
- Modeling and characterization of the software aging phenomenon
- Experimental and empirical software aging detection techniques
- Modeling, analysis and implementation of rejuvenation scheduling
- Design, implementation, and evaluation of rejuvenation mechanisms
- Reports on the application of software monitoring and rejuvenation
to large industrial systems
- Prediction models for mean time to aging-related failures
- Test strategies focused on aging-related faults
- Novel applications for software rejuvenation
- Aging-oriented reliability growth models
- Control of software aging effects
- Analysis of real case studies
- Software aging metrics
PAPER SUBMISSION
Authors from academia, industry and government are invited to submit high
quality unpublished research work in two categories:
- Position Papers: describind open issues and/or original ideas for the SAR
field.
- Regular Papers: describing the results of theoretical and experimental
SAR research.
After rigorous review, all the accepted papers will be included in the ISSRE
supplemental proceedings published by IEEE CS and IEEE Explore. Authors of
selected high quality regular papers will be invited to publish an extended
version of their papers in a special issue of the Journal of Systems and
Software (JSS) (pending).

Notification of acceptance: September 30, 2008
Submission of camera-ready papers and copyright forms: October 15, 2008
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
Papers must be written in English and be formatted according to the IEEE
authoring guidelines [1]. Position and regular papers, respectively,
should not exceed the following size limits: 2-3 and 5-6 pages IEEE style.
Paper submission will be done electronically sending a PDF version of the
paper to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register
