SYRCoSE 2012

Spring/Summer Young Researchers' Colloquium on Software Engineering

May 30-31, Perm, Russia

http://syrcose.ispras.ru

SYRCoSE is a colloquium for young researchers specializing in software engineering. The goal of the colloquium is to help young researchers to meet each other, to get more information on work of their colleagues, to exchange their experience, and to practice in presenting their results at international conferences.

TOPICS OF INTEREST

• Software Development Processes

• Object-Oriented Analysis and Design

• Programming and Specification Languages

• Component-Based Software

• Distributed and Concurrent Software

• Requirements Engineering

• Visual Modeling

• Reengineering and Reverse Engineering

• Formal Methods

• Quality Assurance

• Software Safety and Security

• Testing, Verification, and Validation

• Functional Design and Verification of Hardware

• Software Development and Analysis Tools

• Software Engineering Education

TYPES OF CONTRIBUTIONS

We accept papers authored by students, PhD students or young researchers up to 35 years old. Researchers over this age limit are allowed as co-authors provided that the report is presented by a young author. Papers must be written and presented in English.

We admit original papers of the following types:

• Full research papers presenting the accomplished research up to 9 pages length. Such papers do not have limits on co-authors except that at least one of the co-authors is a young researcher making the presentation at the colloquium.

• Research-in-progress reports which should contain an abstract describing a problem of interest and particular goals of the research, a short description of related work with analysis of differences between the existing methods and the approach proposed by the author, a summary of results achieved and future work directions. Normally, such papers should be solely authored (although the scientific supervisor should be specified). The length of such papers should not exceed 6 pages.

• Industrial papers demonstrating novel or non-trivial applications of software engineering methods. Like full research papers, industrial papers should meet the requirement that at least one of the co-authors is a young person making the presentation at the colloquium.

SUBMISSIONS
