GENERAL THEME

The IEEE/ACM Automated Software Engineering (ASE) Conference series is the
premier research forum for automated software engineering. Each year, it
brings together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to
discuss foundations, techniques, and tools for automating the analysis,
design, implementation, testing, and maintenance of large software systems.

=== CONFERENCE PAPERS ================================================

http://ase2016.org/cfp.html

ASE 2016 invites high quality contributions describing significant,
original, and unpublished results. Solicited topics include, but are not
limited to:

Automated reasoning techniques
Component-based systems
Computer-supported cooperative work
Configuration management
Data mining for software engineering
Domain modeling and meta-modeling
Empirical software engineering
Human-computer interaction
Knowledge acquisition and management
Maintenance and evolution
Model-driven development
Model transformations
Program synthesis & transformations
Modeling language semantics
Open systems development
Program comprehension
Re-engineering
Requirements engineering
Specification languages
Software analysis
Software architecture and design
Software product line engineering
Software visualization
Testing, verification, and validation

Three categories of submissions are solicited:

- Technical Research Papers should describe innovative research in
automating software development activities or automated support to users
engaged in such activities. They should describe a novel contribution to
the field and should carefully support claims of novelty with citations to
the relevant literature. Where a submission builds upon previous work of
the author(s), the novelty of the new contribution must be clearly
described with respect to the previous work. Papers should also clearly
discuss how the results were validated.

- Experience Papers should describe a significant experience in applying
automated software engineering technology and should carefully identify and
discuss important lessons learned, so that other researchers and/or
practitioners can benefit from the experience. Of special interest are
experience papers that report on industrial applications of automated
software engineering.

- New Ideas Papers should describe novel research directions in automating
software development activities or automated support to users engaged in
such activities. New ideas submissions are intended to describe
well-defined research ideas that are at an early stage of investigation and
may not be fully validated.

Submission

Papers must be submitted electronically through the ASE 2016 submission
site, which will be announced in the near future. All submissions must come
in PDF format and conform, at time of submission, to the ACM Formatting
Guidelines (LaTeX users, use the style Option 2). Technical Research Papers
and Experience Papers must not exceed 10 pages (including figures and
appendices) plus up to 2 pages that contain ONLY references. New Ideas
Papers must not exceed 6 pages (including figures, appendices AND
references). Submissions that do not adhere to these limits or that violate
the formatting guidelines will be desk-rejected without review. ASE '16
will pursue a double-blind review process. All submissions must be in
English.

Program Chairs:
Sven Apel, University of Passau, Germany
Sarfraz Khurshid, University of Texas at Austin, United States

=== TOOL DEMONSTRATIONS ==============================================

http://ase2016.org/demos.html

The objective of the ASE 2016 Demonstrations Track is to excite the
software engineering community about new advances in our field through
compelling demonstrations that help advance research and practice. The
track is a highly interactive venue where researchers and practitioners can
demonstrate their tools and discuss them with attendees.

Tool-based demonstrations describe novel aspects of early prototypes or
mature tools. The tool demonstrations must communicate clearly the
following information to the audience: (1) the envisioned users; (2) the
software engineering challenge it proposes to address; (3) the methodology
it implies for its users; and (4) the results of validation studies already
conducted for mature tools, or the design of planned studies for early
prototypes.

Highlighting scientific contributions through concrete artifacts is a
critical supplement to the traditional ASE research papers. A demonstration
provides the opportunity to communicate how the scientific approach has
been implemented or how a specific hypothesis has been assessed, including
details such as implementation and usage issues, data models and
representations, APIs for tool and data access. Authors of regular research
papers are thus also encouraged to submit an accompanying demonstration
paper.

Each submission will be reviewed by at least three members of the
demonstrations selection committee. The evaluation criteria include: (1)
the relevance of the proposed demonstration for the ASE audience; (2) the
technical soundness of the demonstrated tool (for a tool demo); (3) the
originality of its underlying ideas; (4) the quality of its presentation in
the associated video; and (5) the degree to which it considers the relevant
literature.

Submission

Submissions must conform to the ASE 2016 formatting and submission
instructions. In particular, submissions of demonstrations papers must meet
the following criteria: (1) A demonstration submission may not exceed six
pages (including all text, references and figures). (2) Each submission
MUST be accompanied by a short video (between three and five minutes long)
illustrating the demonstration. The video should be made available online
at the time of submission. Videos should (i) provide an overview of the
tool's capabilities; (ii) walk through (some of) the tool capabilities;
(iii) where appropriate, provide clarifying voice-over and/or annotation
highlights; and (iv) be engaging and exciting for the watcher! (3) A
submission may not have been previously published in a demonstration form.
(4) The paper submission must be in PDF.

Tool Demonstration Co-Chairs:
Yang Liu, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
Yuanfang Cai, Drexel University, USA

=== WORKSHOPS ========================================================

http://www.ase2016.org/workshops.html

A workshop co-located with the ASE 2016 conference should provide an
opportunity for exchanging views, advancing ideas, and discussing
preliminary results on topics related to Automated Software Engineering.
Workshops may also serve as platforms to nurture new scientific
communities. Workshops should not be seen as an alternative forum for
presenting full research papers. The workshops co-located with the
conference will be organized before the main conference (Saturday, Sunday).
The workshop co-chairs will decide the exact day after the proposals have
been reviewed and accepted. A workshop may last one, one and half, or two
days.

Workshop Co-Chairs:
Leonardo Mariani, University of Milan Bicocca, Italy
Zhenchang Xing, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore

=== TUTORIALS ========================================================

http://ase2016.org/tutorials.html

Tutorials address a wide range of mature topics from theoretical
foundations to practical techniques and tools for automated software
engineering. Tutorials are intended to provide independent instruction on a
relevant theme; therefore, no commercial or sales-oriented proposals will
be accepted. The tutorials will be organized either on the Saturday or
Sunday before the main conference. The general chair and organizers will
decide the exact dates after all proposals have been reviewed and accepted.

Tutorial Co-Chairs:
Tien Nguyen, Iowa State University, USA
Rui Abreu, Palo Alto Research Center, USA

=== DOCTORAL SYMPOSIUM ===============================================

http://ase2016.org/doctoralsymposium.html

The goal of the ASE 2016 Doctoral Symposium is to provide a supportive yet
questioning and stimulating setting in which the PhD students have an
opportunity to present and discuss their research with other researchers in
the ASE community. The symposium aims at providing students useful feedback
on their research, and to facilitate networking within the scientific
community by interacting with established researchers and with their peers
at a similar stage in their careers.

Doctoral Symposium Co-Chairs:
Tien N. Nguyen, Iowa State University, United States
Massimiliano Di Penta, University of Sannio, Italy
