Call for Papers
1st Workshop on Requirements Engineering for Self-adaptive and
Autonomous Systems (RESA) in REFSQ 2014
https://sites.google.com/site/resaworkshop/home
The RESA workshop will look at the research issues related to software
systems that are aware and even reason about their requirements and
goals at runtime. Such capabilities would bring benefits not just for
the case of self-adaptive and autonomous systems but would also help
in the development of self-explaining systems, and in testing and
debugging. In particular, the workshop aims to:
- Combine research ideas from requirements engineering, requirements
monitoring, computational reflection, model-driven engineering, and
self-adaptive, autonomic, and self-aware systems.
- Provide a "state-of-the-research" assessment expressed in terms of
research issues, challenges, and achievements. This assessment can be
used to guide research in the area for both academia and industry.
- Build a network of researchers in RE for Self-adaptive Systems.
- Plan and promote further events on this emerging area.
RESA'14 will be held in Essen, Germany, as one of the workshops of the
20th International Working Conference on Requirements Engineering:
Foundation for Software Quality (REFSQ 2014).
Important Dates
Submission deadline: January 15, 2014
Author Notification: February 15, 2014
Camera Ready Copy: March 12, 2014
Workshop: April 7th, 2014
List of topics
The research topics we will aim to discuss include:
- Representation of Runtime Requirements (RR) for self-adaptive and
autonomous systems
- Reasoning over runtime requirements
- Requirements-awareness
- The role of uncertainty
− Computational reflection and runtime requirements
− The relationships between requirements models at different
phases of the SE lifecycle
− The relationship of RR to other SE phases
(architecture/design/testing)
− Runtime requirements’ traceability
− Methodologies incorporating requirements-awareness and RR
− Requirements monitoring
− Diagnosis of railed requirements (including self-explaining systems)
Publications and Format of Papers
The RESA 2014 proceedings will be published in CEUR-WS (www.ceur-ws.org).
Submissions should be in PDF, on A4 page size and formatted in LNCS
style. See Springer’s Information for LNCS Authors for details
(notice that for the submission, only the instructions about the
layout of the paper itself are relevant – the copyright form
etc. is only needed for the camera-ready version, in the event of your
paper’s acceptance).
We invite original submissions as either full papers (13-15 pages) and
short/position/vision papers (6-8 pages).
Submissions
Papers should be submitted using EasyChair at
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=resa2014
Selection process
The selection of papers will be based on their relevance to the
workshop, research rigour, innovation, potential for industrial
applicability, and quality of writing. Each paper will be reviewed by
at least three (3) reviewers, and authors will be notified about
acceptance before the REFSQ 2014 early registration deadline.
The workshop co-chairs will not submit papers of their own.
