Call for Papers (IWSC2010)
Fourth International Workshop on Software Clones
- Exploring and Restructuring Systems through Clones -
May 8, 2010
Cape Town, South Africa
In conjunction with ICSE 2010
http://iwsc2010.ist.osaka-u.ac.jp

Full/Position Papers Due: January 20, 2010

Software clones are identical or similar pieces of code or design. Clones are
known to be closely related to various issues on software engineering, such
as software quality, complexity, architecture, refactoring, evolution,
licensing, plagiarism, and so on. Various characteristics of software
systems can be uncovered through the clone analysis, and system
restructuring can be performed by merging clones.

The purpose of this workshop is to continue to solidify and give shape to this
research area and community. More speci cally, the goals are to bring
together researchers and practitioners from around the world to evaluate the
current state of research and applications, discuss common problems,
discover new opportunities for collaboration, exchange ideas, and envision
new areas of research and applications.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- Definition of software (code) clones
- Types, distribution, and nature of clones in software systems
- Causes and e ects of clones
- Techniques and algorithms for clone detection, analysis, and management
- Clone and clone pattern visualization
- Tools and systems for detecting and analysing software clones
- Applications of clone analysis
- Clone management
- System architecture and clones
- Effect of clones on system complexity and quality
- Clone analysis in families of similar systems
- Industrial experience
- Measures of code similarity
- Cost/economic and trade-o ff models for clone removal
- Evaluation and benchmarking of clone detection methods
- Evolution of clones
- Licensing and plagiarism issues
- Clone-aware software design and development
- Refactoring through clone analysis
- Raising the granularity/abstraction level of clone detection
and analysis(high-level clones)

We aim at full papers limited to 8 pages and position papers limited
to 2 pages. Submissions must adhere to the ACM two-column proceedings
format:

http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates

Papers must present novel ideas and open issues, or represent important
viewpoints on the field. They must be relevant to the goals of the workshop
and hold the potential for lively discussion. Papers will be reviewed by at
least two members of the workshop program committee. Accepted
research and position papers will be published in the workshop proceedings.
Authors of selected papers will be invited to present their work during the
workshop and/or act as discussion group leaders during workshop sessions.

Submission
Submissions should be uploaded online to the workshop's submission web site:
