[aspectc-user] CFP - ACP4IS @ AOSD2007

[Olaf Spinczyk]

Dear AspectC++ users,

please let me draw your attention to the following AOSD 2007 workshop,
which this year has a special focus on AOP in conjunction with embedded
and real time systems. Contributions by AspectC++ users are highly
appreciated. ;-)

Best regards and merry christmas,

Olaf

       Sixth AOSD Workshop on Aspects, Components, and Patterns
                 for Infrastructure Software (ACP4IS)

                            March 12, 2007

        A one-day workshop to be held in conjunction with the
                  Sixth International Conference on
           Aspect-Oriented Software Development (AOSD'07),
                 March 12-16, 2007, Vancouver, Canada
                      http://aosd.net/conference


DESCRIPTION

ACP4IS provides a highly interactive forum for researchers and
developers to discuss the application of and relationships between
aspects, components, and patterns within modern "systems
infrastructure" software: e.g., application servers, middleware,
virtual machines, compilers, operating systems, and other software
that provides general services for higher-level applications.

Topics of interest include:

- Approaches that combine or relate component-, pattern-, and
  aspect-based techniques

- Aspect languages for infrastructure software

- Container-, ORB-, and system-based separation of concerns

- Architectural techniques for particular system concerns, e.g.,
  security, static and dynamic optimization

- Aspect mining within infrastructure software

- Application- or domain-specific optimization of systems

- Reasoning and optimization across architecture layers

- Resource consumption of AOP approaches

- Timing behavior of AO-code

- Dimensions of infrastructure software quality including
  comprehensibility, configurability, reliability, evolvability,
  scalability

- Quantitative and qualitative evaluations

This year's edition will feature a special (non-excluding) focus on
aspects for real-time and embedded systems.  Contributions that are
related to the topics of interest and the special focus are highly
appreciated.


ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION

Invitation to the workshop will be based on accepted position and
technical papers, 3-6 pages in length.  Papers should be
electronically submitted in PDF, Postscript, or MS Word format through
the ACP4IS 2007 online submission system.  Paper submissions will be
reviewed by the workshop program committee and designated reviewers.
Papers will be evaluated based on technical quality, originality,
relevance, and presentation.

A technical report including all papers will be published. The
publication of selected articles as a special journal issue is
planned.
