9th Workshop on SYSTEM TESTING AND VALIDATION

http://www.fokus.fraunhofer.de/en/fokus_events/motion/stv_2012


In conjunction with the 24th International Conference on Software & Systems Engineering and their Applications (ICSSEA2012)
October 23th - 25th 2012 - Paris, France


INNOVATIONS IN SOFTWARE ENGINEERING


Workshop Motivation
===================

Software security testing is an area which has for decades been the focus of many research efforts. Yet, due to new challenges resulting from new development processes, such as SCRUM used in agile development and new aspects of large scale system integration, the need for efficient testing has been seeing much resent research. That is why this workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners in software security testing. The goal of the workshop is to provide a forum for presenting and discussing work in progress, or ideas for future research in response to future trends.



Workshop Objectives
===================

The objective of the workshop is to bring together industry and science by providing a platform for discussion, interaction and collaboration. Industrial papers should either describe challenges of system or software testing that could trigger future research activities or present comparable results of applying model-based security testing. Research papers are expected to present promising ideas or possible solutions to in-dustrial challenges in the field of model-based security testing. Topics of interest comprise but are not limited to:

Model based testing
Security testing
Fuzz testing
Software testing metrics
Risk analysis



Submission Details
==================
Authors should submit full papers of up to six pages. Figures and references must be included in the six pages. At least one of the authors of each accepted paper must register early to attend the conference, in order for the paper to appear in the conference proceedings.

Submissions should be send to the workshop organizers: stv12 [at] fokus [dot] fraunhofer [dot] de
