Scope

=====

Legacy information systems can be a serious headache for companies because, on the one hand, these systems cannot be thrown away since they store a lot of valuable business knowledge over time, and on the other hand, they cannot be maintained easily at an acceptable cost. For many years, reengineering has been a solution to this problem because it facilitates the reuse of the software artifacts and knowledge embedded in the system. However, reengineering often fails due to the fact that it carries out non-standardized and ad hoc methods. This workshop attempts to explore and provides novel approaches in software modernization and evolution taking into account new trends in this field.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

=======================================

Software Evolution & Maintenance

Reverse Engineering Reengineering

Data and Process Mining

Model-Driven Engineering

Quality Assurance

Program Comprehension

Software Architecture Recovery Service

Engineering and SOA

Empirical Studies
