Dear Colleagues: I would appreciate if you would share the announcement below with those who might be interested.
Best regards, A. M. G. Solo Publicity Chair, SERP'08 ------------------------ Extended Paper Submission Deadline: March 10, 2008 C A L L F O R P A P E R S =============================== The 2008 International Conference on Software Engineering Research and Practice SERP'08 Date and Location: July 14-17, 2008, Las Vegas, USA ACADEMIC SPONSORS: Research labs at Harvard University, UCLA, Georgia Institute of Technology, University of Texas at Austin, University of Iowa, and others (see below). You are invited to submit a paper (and/or a proposal to organize a workshop). All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. SERP'08 will be held in Las Vegas, USA, July 14-17, 2008. The conference will be held simultaneously (ie, same location and dates) with WORLDCOMP'08 (The 2008 World Congress in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, and Applied Computing). The last set of conferences (SERP and its affiliated events) had research contributions from 82 countries and had attracted about 2,000 participants. It is anticipated to have over 2,000 participants for the 2008 event. You are invited to submit a full paper for consideration. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings/book. SCOPE: Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: O Survivable systems O Software architectures O Architectural analysis and verifications Methods O Quality oriented software architecture (design and Support) O Software reliability, safety and security methods O Software reuse and component engineering O Object oriented technology (design and analysis) O Software metrics O Reverse and architectural recovery methods O Domain specific software engineering O Aerospace software and system engineering O Software engineering methodologies O Engineering of safety/mission critical systems O Software testing, evaluation and analysis technologies O Workflow - Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) O Project management issues O Distributed and parallel systems O Legal issues and standards O Automated software design O Real-time embedded software engineering O Automated software design and synthesis O Software security engineering O Theoretic approaches (formal methods, graph, ...) O Domain modeling and meta-modeling O Software maintenance O Reflection and metadata methodologies O AI approaches to software engineering O Component based software engineering O Software engineering standards and guidelines O Reports on intelligent CASE tools and eclipse plugins issues O Multimedia in software engineering O Usability engineering O Novel software tools and environments O Pervasive software engineering O Requirement engineering and processes O Critical and embedded software design O UML/MDA and AADL O Service oriented software architecture O Human computer interaction and usability engineering O Software design and design patterns O Model based software engineering O Aspect oriented software engineering O Agent oriented software engineering O Case studies and emerging technologies O Programming languages and compilers Web site of SERP'08: http://www.world-academy-of-science.org/sites/worldcomp08/ws/conferences/serp08 http://www.world-academy-of-science.org PURPOSE / HISTORY: SERP'08 is part of WORLDCOMP'08. WORLDCOMP is the largest annual gathering of researchers in computer science, computer engineering and applied computing; it is composed of a number of joint conferences. Many of these joint conferences are the premier conferences for presentation of advances in their respective fields. We anticipate to have over 2,600 attendees from over 80 countries participating in the 2008 event. SERP'08 will be composed of research presentations, keynote lectures, invited presentations, tutorials, panel discussions, and poster presentations. SUBMISSION OF PAPERS: Prospective authors are invited to submit their full paper (about 5 to 7 pages - single space, font size of 10 to 12) to Prof. H. R. Arabnia by Mar. 10, 2008 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). email submissions in MS Doc or PDF formats are preferable. All reasonable typesetting formats are acceptable (later, the authors of accepted papers will be asked to follow a particular typesetting format to prepare their papers for publication.) The length of the Camera-Ready papers (if accepted) will be limited to 7 (IEEE style) pages. Papers must not have been previously published or currently submitted for publication elsewhere. The first page of the draft paper should include: title of the paper, name, affiliation, postal address, and email address of each author as well as the name of the conference the paper is being submitted to (ie, SERP'08). The first page should also identify the name of the Contact Author and a maximum of 5 topical keywords that would best represent the content of the paper. Each paper will be refereed by two experts in the field who are independent of the conference program committee. The referees' evaluations will then be reviewed by one member of the program committee who will recommend a decision to the co-chairs of the track. The track chairs will make the final decision. Lastly, the Camera-Ready papers will be reviewed by one member of the program committee. GENERAL CO-CHAIR / COORDINATOR: Prof. Hamid R. Arabnia Editor-in-Chief, The Journal of Supercomputing (Springer) Vice President, Int'l Society of Intelligent Biological Medicine The University of Georgia Department of Computer Science 415 Graduate Studies Research Center Athens, Georgia 30602-7404, USA Tel: (706) 542-3480 Fax: (706) 542-2966 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] LOCATION OF CONFERENCE: SERP will be held in the Monte Carlo hotel, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA (with any overflows at other near-by hotels). This is a mega hotel with excellent conference facilities and over 3,000 rooms. It is minutes from the airport with 24-hour shuttle service to and from the airport. This hotel has many recreational attractions, including: spa, pools, sunning decks, Easy River, wave pool, lighted tennis courts, nightly shows, a number of restaurants, ... The negotiated room rate for conference attendees is very reasonable. The hotel is within walking distance from most other attractions.
