CALL FOR PAPERS
1st International Workshop on Service-Oriented
Computing: Consequences for Engineering
Requirements
(SOCCER 2005)
http://www.lsi.upc.edu/events/soccer
13th IEEE International Requirements Engineering Conference 2005
http://conferences.computer.org/RE/
August 30th, 2005
Paris, France
The service-oriented approach is becoming more
and more popular to integrate highly
heterogeneous systems. Web services are the
natural evolution of conventional middleware
technologies to support Web-based and
enterprise-level integration, but the paradigm
can also serve as basis for other classes of
systems. To realize a service-oriented
architecture we need techniques to identify and
specify requirements on services in a
machine-interpretable way to enable the dynamic
composition and deployment of systems that meet
the expectations of the different stakeholders.
We need new capabilities to monitor the behavior
of deployed systems and reasoning on partial
matches, deviations, and corrective actions. We
need to integrate service-oriented architectures
with existing component- and COTS-based
architectures that deliver capabilities not
suited to services. And finally, we need to be
able to exploit the availability of services to
discover new opportunities that improve existing
requirements processes and techniques.
GOALS
The workshop intends to provide an opportunity
for the communities that work on requirements and
service-oriented applications to meet and share
their knowledge to set appropriate theoretical
foundations, define special-purpose methodologies
for requirements specification, and develop
supporting technology.
SCOPE
All topics listed here are not intended in their
general formulation, but must be slanted towards
service-oriented applications. Areas of
particular interest include, but are not limited
to:
- Languages, models and methodologies for
requirements elicitation and specification
- Quality assessment
- Discovering services that comply with requirements specifications
- New service-based requirements processes and techniques
- Requirements validation
- Run-time monitoring of system requirements and Quality of Service (QoS)
- Requirements for context-aware systems
- Requirements for adaptivity and adaptability
- Requirements for ambient computing
- Requirements for QoS
- Requirements for multi-channel applications
- Security requirements
- Service-level agreement
- Requirements-based testing
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Papers can be submitted to the workshop using the
standard IEEE format (see
http://computer.org/cspress/instruct.htm).
Submissions should be preceded by a front page
including title, authors and a 150-word abstract,
and should identify the author responsible for
correspondence. All papers will be reviewed by
the Program Committee members to ensure high
quality and relevance. Papers must be unpublished
and submitted electronically in Adobe PDF format

RESEARCH PAPERS AND EXPERIENCE REPORTS should be
original work, limited to 5,000 (research) or
2,000 (experience) words in IEEE CS format.
Papers must not have been previously published
nor have been submitted to, or be in
consideration for, any journal, book, or
conference. Acceptance criteria will be adequacy
to the topics of the workshop, technical
soundness and potential for generating discussion.
POSITION PAPERS may not exceed 2,000 words in
IEEE CS format. The aim of a position paper is to
contribute a specific position to a research
discussion. Position papers are judged on
novelty, sensibility of the viewpoint, key
insights, and relevant research results. Radical
and unconventional ideas are welcomed.
Authors are requested to present their accepted
paper at the workshop. Publication of extended
versions of selected papers in a special issue of
an international journal is currently under
consideration.
The final form of accepted submissions will be
made available on the workshop web-site for
pre-workshop dissemination and post-workshop
reference.
