CALL FOR PAPERS
TOOLS
EUROPE is devoted to the combination of technologies that have emerged
as a result of object technology becoming "mainstream". Like its
predecessors, TOOLS EUROPE combines an emphasis on quality with a
strong practical focus.Started
in 1989, TOOLS conferences, held in Europe, the USA, Australia, China
and Eastern Europe, have played a major role in the development of
object technology; many of seminal concepts were first presented at
TOOLS. After an interruption of four years, the conference was revived
in 2007 to reflect the maturing of the field and the new challenges
ahead and has become a yearly event.Contributions
are solicited on all aspects of object technology and related fields,
in particular model-based development, component-based development, and
patterns (design, analysis and other applications); more generally, any
contribution addressing topics in advanced software technology fall
within the scope of TOOLS. Reflecting the practical emphasis of TOOLS,
contributions showcasing applications along with a sound conceptual
contribution are particularly welcome. Topics include:• Object technology, including programming techniques, languages, and tools • Testing of object-oriented systems • Patterns, pattern languages, tool support for patterns • Distributed and concurrent object systems • Real-time object-oriented programming and design • Experience reports, including efforts at standardisation • Applications to safety- and security-related software • Component-based programming, modelling, tools • Aspects and aspect-oriented programming and modelling • Frameworks for component-based development • Trusted and reliable components • Model-driven development and Model-Driven Architecture • Domain specific languages and language design • Tools and frameworks for supporting model-driven development • Language implementation techniques, compilers, run-time systems • Practical applications of program verification and analysis • Open source solutions & Reproduction studies
All
contributions will be subject to a rigourous selection process by the
international Program Committee, with a stress on originality,
practicality and overall quality. The proceedings will be published in
