CALL FOR PAPERS
The 12th ACM/IEEE International Workshop on Software Engineering for Systems-of-Systems and Software Ecosystems (SESoS 2024)
14-20 April, 2024 @ICSE 2024, Lisbon, Portugal
http://sesos2024.icmc.usp.br
============
Scope
Systems-of-systems (SoS) have become increasingly complex and frequently used in highly distributed, dynamic, and open environments. SoS refers to evolving software systems in which constituent systems (themselves systems in their own right) cooperatively work to fulfill specific, complex missions, facing Software Engineering researchers and practitioners with substantial challenges. Software ecosystems (SECO) have also become an important research topic, addressing social issues along with technical aspects of software development. SoS and SECO are closely related and naturally distributed in development teams. In both fields, distributed resources aim at reducing cost and reaching new Information Technology markets. Software Engineering related problems and challenges are amplified and become more critical when SoS and SECO are analyzed together. This 12th IEEE/ACM International Workshop on Software Engineering for Systems-of-Systems and Software Ecosystems (SESoS 2024) will provide researchers and practitioners with a forum to exchange ideas and experiences, analyze research and development issues, discuss promising solutions, and propose theoretical foundations for development and evolution of complex software-intensive systems, inspiring visions for the future of Software Engineering for SoS and SECO, as well as paving the way for a more structured community effort.
============
Topics of Interest
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:
* Support to SoS development process (analysis, architecture, construction, maintenance and evolution);
* Complexity and systems thinking applied to system management and engineering of SoS and SECO;
* Platform development and governance;
* SoS and SECO modeling and analysis;
* Dynamic reconfiguration at different levels (strategic, tactical, operational) to revisit coordination mechanisms and emergent behavior;
* Studies relative to SoS and SECO within specific domains and areas (open source, mobile, embedded, autonomous systems, AI, digital transformations, IoT technologies, telecommunication etc.);
* SECO business and social aspects;
* SoS and SECO stakeholder communication and coordination;
* Human and technical trust (in particular, building trust in SECO and their components);
* Security and privacy aspects in SoS and SECO engineering;
* SoS and SECO simulation and model-based engineering;
* SoS and SECO agile development;
*Decision-making processes and tools for SoS and SECO;
*Detection of anomalous behaviors of SoS and SECO;
*Techniques and tools for SoS verification/validation/testing;
*SECO sustainability and diversity;
*Empirical Software Engineering for SoS and SECO;
*Systematic literature reviews and mapping studies;
*Experience from industrial perspectives and case studies;
*Challenges and directions for research and practice;
*Strategies, relationships, and applications of SoS and SECO.
Submission Guidelines
SESoS seeks two types of paper submissions:
1. Regular research papers (up to 8 pages) describing original, substantial contributions in research and/or practice.
2. Position papers and experience reports (up to 4 pages) describing emerging results, lessons learned, open problems or novel ideas and perspectives on research.
The submission website is:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sesos2024
The page limits include abstract, all figures, tables, and references. All papers should be submitted in PDF format via the EasyChair submission system. All workshop papers must follow the ACM formatting instructions available at:

Publication
All submitted papers should describe original work and not be published or under review anywhere. The review process is single-blind. The papers will be judged by at least three reviewers based on their clarity, relevance, originality, and contribution. All accepted and presented papers will appear at the ACM Digital Library.
The official publication date of the workshop proceedings is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of ICSE 2024. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work.
Venue
The workshop will be held in Lisbon, Portugal on 14-20 April, 2024 colocated with ICSE 2024.
