June 8th 2020, Copenhagen, Denmark
https://amp.fe.up.pt/2020/
Important dates
---------------
- Submission deadline: March 17th, 2020 (AoE)

Theme and Topics
----------------
Agile architecture does not necessarily emerge from the use of agile
development practices, it needs to be deliberately sought after. This
often means creating systems as sets of small, independent components
that collaborate to provide the desired functionality. Such components
are usually loosely-coupled and expose well-defined APIs that are
accessible over standard communication protocols and data formats --
they can be individually developed and tested, they can be easily
replaced by alternative implementations if needed, and they provide
great flexibility when deploying and scaling the system.
This style of architecture is often described as **microservices**.
Essentially, microservices decompose a system into an architecture of
standalone modules that 1) are simpler to maintain and evolve, 2) scale
efficiently, and 3) can be reused as building blocks for other
architectures. Transitioning to a microservice architecture is crucial
for companies in highly-competing markets, where agility and flexibility
of software systems become a critical asset to establish leadership.
While microservices are a solution for maintainability, evolvability,
scalability, and reuse, they come at a cost:
an increased complexity that calls for an improvement of the current
techniques for software construction and advanced engineering practices.
The AMP workshop aims at collecting original work on the science and
engineering of Microservices Programming using Agile principles and
practices and/or with the goal of supporting Agility:
- Design and implementation of microservice architectures.
- Empirical studies of microservices.
- Software engineering methods for microservices.
- Approaches to refactoring towards microservice architectures.
- Orchestration techniques for microservices.
- Continuous integration/delivery approaches for microservices.
- Security in microservices.
- Formal models for microservices.
- Verification of microservice systems.
- Programming languages and techniques for microservices.
- Testing for microservices.
Contributions and Evaluation
----------------------------
Contributions to AMP 2020 can be of the following types (maximum length):
- Full papers: original research papers, industry experiences, or case
studies (from 4 to 7 pages, including references)
- Extended Abstracts: tool presentations, position papers, work in
progress, or practical experience reports (2 pages, including references)
All submissions must be in English, conform to the Springer LNBIP format
and must be submitted through EasyChair at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=xp2020 and selecting track
"XP2020 Research WS - Agility with Microservices Programming".
Peer groups with expertise in the workshop focus area will review
submissions. The Program Committee will select full papers and extended
abstracts for presentation at the workshop and full papers for inclusion
in the XP2020 workshop proceedings published by Springer LNBIP. An
author, or a proxy attending XP 2020, must present the paper/abstract.
For further details, refer to the workshop website
