ICSR is the premier international conference in the field of software reuse. The main goal of ICSR is to present the advances and improvements within the software reuse domain, as well as to promote interaction between researchers and practitioners. The 10th International Conference on Software Reuse (ICSR 2008) will be held on May 25-29, 2008 in Beijing, China. We invite Research Papers, Workshop Proposals, Tutorial Proposals, Symposium Descriptions and Tool Demonstrations to be presented and discussed in the conference.
The theme of this year is “High Confidence Software Reuse in Large Systems”. A high confidence system is one that behaves in a well-understood and predictable fashion. It must withstand malicious attacks as well as naturally occurring hazards, and must not cause or contribute to accidents or unacceptable losses. Achieving high confidence is becoming more difficult as systems become more complex, especially in large software systems. Today’s trends towards widespread use of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) technology, increased integration, continuous evolution, and larger scale are yielding more complex software systems. So, the problem of how to build high confidence complex systems and how to reuse software with a high level of confidence become new attractive problems for research.
On the other hand, high level software asset reuse has been a goal for the last twenty to thirty years, and it can still be considered an unsolved question. Components Based Development, MDA-MDE-MDD, Extreme Programming, and other techniques or methods are promising approaches to software reuse that still need more research.
ICSR 2008 in Beijing will address these new scenarios and their major challenges. We invite authors to submit articles that present results, position papers or experiences relevant to software reuse. The suggested topics for paper submissions include, but are not limited to:
* High Confidence Software Reuse Methods
* Confidence Ensuring and Evaluating Methods
* Best Practice of Software Reuse in Very Large Systems
* Architecture Based Software Reuse
* Reuse in Service-oriented Environment
* Reuse of Service-oriented/SOA Systems
* Reliability and security of OTS components and legal issues
* Documentation of OTS component
* Processes to identify and select OTS components
* Software integration and evolution problems
* Interaction with the developer community, or with the vendor
* Software variability management
* Aspect-oriented software reuse
* Software generators and domain-specific languages
* Software product lines, software product families, and domain engineering
* Component-based software engineering
* Application of MDD
* Asset search and retrieval techniques
* Evolution of component-based software systems
* Lightweight approaches to software reuse
* Managing the transition towards a reuse organization
* Legal, managerial, and economic issues of software development with reuse
* Benefit and risk analysis of reuse investments
* Reuse in the e-commerce context: how to address fast-evolving markets
* Generation of non-code artifacts
* Testing of components and generators
* Quality aspects of reuse, e.g. security and reliability
* Success and failure stories of reuse approaches from industrial context
RESEARCH PAPERS
Research papers should describe original and significant work in the research and practice of software reuse. Case studies, empirical research, and experiments are particularly welcome. We also welcome papers that present leading edge and novel ideas in software reuse. Submissions should conform to the same format as Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science, and must not exceed 10 pages (About 5000 words) in length, in English. The authors of accepted papers are advised to follow in the preparation of the camera ready copy the Springer guidelines. For detailed information, please access our conference website:
http://www.sei.pku.edu.cn/conference/icsr2008/
***Submit by December 20, 2007***
WORKSHOPS
ICSR 2008 also invites submissions of workshop proposals. The workshops co-located with the conference should provide an opportunity for exchanging views, advancing ideas, and discussing preliminary results on software reuse research and applications. Workshop proposals should not exceed 3 pages, including one page preliminary call for papers, their relevance to the conference, expected number of presenters and participants, and a brief description of workshop organizers. Proposals for workshops can be sent to Dr. Jianjun Zhao (Email: zhao-jj at cs.sjtu.edu.cn), ICSR 2008 Workshops Chair. For detailed information about the workshop proposals delivery, please access our conference website:

***Submit by November 10, 2007***
TUTORIALS
Tutorials are an integral component of the ICSR conferences. They should offer participants the opportunity to explore software reuse topics in depth; to gain new insights, knowledge, and skills; and to learn from some of the leaders in the field. Proposals for tutorials are invited on any theme that is relevant to the software reuse community. However, we are particularly keen to offer tutorials aimed at disseminating the results of research and experience to practitioners. Proposals for tutorials can be sent to Dr. Jeffrey Poulin (Email: jeffrey.poulin at lmco.com), ICSR 2008 Tutorials Chair. For detailed information, please access our conference website:
http://www.sei.pku.edu.cn/conference/icsr2008/
***Submit by December 15, 2007***
DOCTORAL SYMPOSIUM
The Doctoral Symposium track is for those who are currently working on or who have recently completed their PhD thesis. The track offers an opportunity to present research problems, solution directions, results obtained thus far, and research plans towards the completion of the PhD studies. The paper should be a 2 page summary of your PhD project, and can be sent to Dr. Gregory Kulczycki (Email: gregwk at vt.edu), ICSR 2008 Doctoral Symposium Chair. For detailed information, please access our conference website: http://www.sei.pku.edu.cn/conference/icsr2008/
***Submit by December 15, 2007***
TOOL DEMONSTRATIONS
We invite proposals for tool demonstrations on any topics related to software reuse. Demonstrations will be in an open session to allow individual interaction with the participants. Submissions should not exceed two pages in proceedings format. Proposals for tool demonstrations can be sent to Dr. Jose Luis Barros (Email: jbarros at uvigo.es), ICSR 2008 Demos Chair. For detailed information, please access our conference website:
