Call
for Participation Third Workshop on Testing Aspect-Oriented
Programs (WTAOP'07)
Aspect-Oriented
Programming
(AOP) is a new paradigm for dealing with concerns that cut cross system
components. It aims to encapsulate crosscutting concerns into aspects
with the advice invoked at the designated points of program execution.
While AOP improves the modularity of crosscutting concerns, the
features and mechanisms of AOP also yield new fault types. New
strategies, techniques, and practices are required for the quality
assurance of aspect-oriented programs. The
Third
Workshop on Testing Aspect-Oriented Programs (WTAOP'07) will
bring
together researchers and practitioners to discuss the challenges and
issues associated with the testing of aspect-oriented programs.
WTAOP'07 will continue the work of the previous workshops held
in
conjunction with AOSD 2005 and ISSTA 2006
(http://cyborg.eecs.wsu.edu/wtaop/). The goals of WTAOP'07
include the
following:
We solicit position papers on all aspects pertaining to the testing of aspect-oriented programs. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
Submissions should be in the ACM SIG proceedings publication format nine point font or larger, and should be no longer than six pages, including all text, references, appendices, and figures. The expectation is that papers accepted at the workshop will eventually lead to full-length papers at high-quality conferences or journals. Papers must be submitted in PDF, postscript, or Word format to Dr. Dianxiang Xu at dianxiang.xu@ndsu.edu by the deadline for paper submission. Submitted papers will be reviewed by the program committee. Selections will be based on content, quality, and relevance. Accepted papers will be published in the ACM digital library. Authors of the best position papers and those leading to the most constructive discussions at the workshop will be invited to submit a suitably expanded form of the paper for a special issue or section on testing aspect-oriented programs in a journal. Important Dates Deadline for paper submission: January 15, 2007 (Extended deadline: January 26, 2007) Notification of acceptance: February 2, 2007 Deadline for final contributions: February 16, 2007 Workshop at AOSD: Tuesday, March 13, 2007 Program Committee Program Co-Chairs Dianxiang
