Overview
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, embedded systems, web services and other software that provides general services for higher-level applications.
Suggested paper topics include, but are not restricted to:
- Approaches that combine or relate component-, pattern-, and aspect-based techniques
- Aspect languages for infrastructure software
- Container-, ORB-, and system-based separation of concerns
- Support for Web services in middleware infrastructure
- 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
- Resource consumption of AOP approaches
- Timing behavior of AO-code
- Aspects and patterns for real-time and embedded systems
- Dimensions of infrastructure software quality including comprehensibility, configurability, reliability, evolvability, scalability
- Quantitative and qualitative evaluations
Submission Guidelines
Invitation to the workshop will be based on accepted position and technical papers, 3-6 pages in length. Papers should be electronically submitted as PDF documents in ACM format through the ACP4IS 2008 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.
Accepted papers will be published as workshop proceedings in the ACM digital library. Excellent contributions will additionally be selected for publication in a special ACP4IS journal issue (IEE) planned for end of 2008.
