* Objectives and scope

    TASE is an international symposium that aims to bring together 
researchers
    and developers from academia and industry with interests in the 
theoretical
    aspects of software engineering. Modern society is increasingly 
dependent
    on software systems that are becoming larger and more complex. This 
poses
    new challenges to current software engineering methodologies that 
need to
    be enhanced using modern results from theoretical computer science.

    We invite submissions of research papers on topics covering all 
theoretical
    aspects of software engineering, including, but not limited to, the
    following:


    + Abstract interpretation
    + Algebraic and co-algebraic specifications
    + Aspect oriented software
    + Component-based systems
    + Cyber-physical systems
    + Deductive verification
    + Distributed and concurrent systems
    + Embedded and real-time systems
    + Feature-oriented software
    + Formal verification and program semantics
    + Integration of formal methods
    + Language design
    + Model checking and theorem proving
    + Object-oriented systems
    + Program logics and calculi
    + Quantum computation
    + Run-time verification and monitoring
    + Service-oriented and cloud computing
    + Software architecture
    + Software testing and quality assurance
    + Software security and reliability
    + Static analysis of programs
    + Type systems and behavioural typing
    + Tools exploiting theoretical results

* Submission guidelines

    We solicit contributions that describe original and unpublished 
research,
    and should not be submitted for publication elsewhere. They are 
limited to
    8 pages, must be written in English, and the format should adhere to the
    A4 double column IEEE style. Please prepare your manuscripts with 
respect
    to the IEEE guidelines. Papers should be submitted electronically as 
a PDF
    file via the Easychair system at

              http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tase2016.

    The proceedings of the TASE 2016 symposium will include all accepted 
papers
    and will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press (approval 
pending).
    The authors of selected papers will be invited after the symposium to
    submit an extended version to a journal special issue.
