CBSE 2014 - 17th International ACM SIGSOFT Symposium on Component-Based Software Engineering

Component-based Software Engineering (CBSE) continues to attract interest and evolve as a discipline for the rapid assembly of flexible software systems. CBSE combines elements of software requirements engineering, architecture, design, verification, testing, configuration and deployment. The CBSE symposium has an established track record of bringing together researchers and practitioners from a variety of disciplines to promote a better understanding of CBSE from diverse perspectives, and to engage in active discussion and debate. CBSE 2013 is open to all participants from universities and industry interested in CBSE and related areas.
Topics of interest for CBSE 2014 therefore include, but are not limited to, the following:
Specification, architecture, and design of component models and component-based systems
Software quality assurance for component-based engineering
Verification, testing and certification of component-based systems
Component composition, binding, and dynamic adaptation
Formal methods for automated component composition and integration
Component-based engineering with agents, aspects, or services
Component-based product line engineering
Non-functional properties (quality of service attributes) in component-based engineering
Patterns and frameworks for component-based engineering
Tools and methods for component-based engineering
Industrial experience using component-based software development
Empirical studies in component-based software engineering
Teaching component-based software engineering
