Call For Papers

WoSAR: The 9th International Workshop on Software Aging and Rejuvenation
October 23-26, 2017, Toulouse, France, co-located with ISSRE 2017
https://wosar2017.wordpress.com

Software aging is a problem of progressive degradation of performance and
dependability in computer programs, especially those executing for long
period of time.

This phenomenon has been extensively studied since more than 20 years,
as it affects many systems, from embedded devices to server software to
critical systems.

Software rejuvenation, i.e. restart of application (components/threads/task),
VMs or machines, is the most prominent approach to combat software aging.

A variety of reactive and proactive rejuvenation techniques, scheduling
plans, scope and granularity, have been proposed for different application
categories and platforms.

WoSAR is the premier international venue to discuss the recent advances and
discoveries in theoretical and practical aspects of software aging and
rejuvenation research.


IMPORTANT DATES
Full paper submission: EXTENDED July 30, 2017
Research paper notification: August 13, 2017
Submission of camera-ready copy: August 28, 2017

TOPICS OF INTEREST

This call for papers addresses all researchers and practitioners with an interest
about performance and dependability degradation of software systems.
Topics addressed in the workshop include but are not limited to:

* Progressive degradation of performability / availability /
reliability / scalability / ?ilities?in software systems.

* Modeling and characterization of the software aging
phenomenon.

* Design and evaluation of rejuvenation techniques.

* Analysis of aging-related faults/bugs, errors, and failures.

* Software test strategies for detecting aging-related bugs.

* Monitoring and detection of software aging effects (e.g.,
memory leaks, database index fragmentation, unterminated
processes/threads, accrual of round-off errors, ...).

* New classes of software aging effects.

* Software aging and rejuvenation in Big Data and IoT Apps.

* Analytical, empirical, and experimental studies of any of the
above topics.

* Analysis of real case studies.

For all the above topics, WoSAR is a unique forum to discuss the
software aging and rejuvenation impacts on systems from different
domains of applicability such as:
Cloud computing, Mobile, Embedded, Medical, Cyber-physical,
SCADA, Smart Cities, Transportation, Telecommunication,
Military, System of systems, and others.

PAPER SUBMISSION
Authors are invited to submit high quality unpublished research
work describing the results of theoretical and experimental
software aging and rejuvenation research.

All the accepted papers will be included in the IEEE Xplore Digital
Library.

Papers must be written in English and be formatted according to
the IEEE authoring guidelines (1). Full papers should not exceed
seven pages in IEEE style. Paper submission will be done
electronically through EasyChair (2).

JOURNAL SPECIAL ISSUE (PENDING)
Distinguished papers, after further revisions and approval, will
be published in a special issue of a selected reputable journal.
