Participants are encouraged to submit position papers and full papers. Position papers should highlight open problems and future challenges in the field. Full papers could describe novel research contributions that are not mature enough to be submitted to conferences as well as experience reports.
All papers should be in the two columns IEEE format required for the ICSE technical papers (see http://www.cs.uoregon.edu/events/icse2009/calls/format/), must be submitted in PDF format, and submitted via the EasyChair web-site. Position papers should be at most 4 pages long while full papers at most 8 pages. All submitted contributions will be reviewed by three reviewers and will be evaluated based on their quality, relevance, originality, and significance. Accepted contributions will be published in the ACM digital library within the ICSE 2009 workshop proceedings.
The workshop will be organized around paper presentation sessions and at least one discussion session. A keynote speach is also foreseen. More details on the organization will be provided right after the acceptance of papers.
