* 12th IEEE International Working Conference on Source * * Code Analysis and Manipulation * * SCAM 2012 * * http://scam2012.cs.usask.ca/ * * * * September 23 - 24, 2012 * * Riva Del Garda, Trento, Italy * ********************************************************************** * *** CALL FOR PAPERS *** * ********************************************************************** OVERVIEW/SCOPE ************** The aim of SCAM is to bring together researchers and practitioners working on theory, techniques and applications, which concern analysis and/or manipulation of the source code of computer systems. While much attention in the wider software engineering community is properly directed towards other aspects of systems development and evolution, such as specification, design and requirements engineering, it is the source code that contains the only precise description of the behavior of the system. The analysis and manipulation of source code thus remains a pressing concern. COVERED TOPICS AND PAPER FORMATS ******************************** We welcome submission of *full papers* that describe original and significant work in the field of source code analysis and manipulation. SCAM explicitly solicits results from any theoretical or technological domain that can be applied to the following or similar topics: - program transformation - abstract interpretation - program slicing - source level software metrics - decompilation - source level testing and verification - source level optimization - program comprehension SCAM also welcomes *short tool papers* that introduce tools for source code analysis and manipulation. Tool papers should describe a concrete source code analysis or manipulation tool that is available for download and general use and can be run and demonstrated at the conference. Submitted papers should not be longer than 10 pages (6 pages for tool papers). All papers submitted should follow IEEE Computer Society Press Proceedings Author Guidelines. The papers should be submitted electronically in PDF form via the conference web site.Submitted papers must not have been previously published or concurrently submitted for consideration elsewhere. In addition to the main and tool tracks, SCAM 2012 solicits 2-page *Frontiers position papers* describing a significantly new idea in the theory, technology, application or engineering of source code analysis and manipulation systems. Frontiers authors will join in an open panel discussion of the frontiers of the area at the conference. IMPORTANT DATES *************** Abstract submission (full and frontiers papers): April 29, 2012 Papers submission (full and frontiers papers): May 04, 2012 Tool papers submission: May 31, 2012 Notification full and frontier papers: June 16, 2012 Notification tool papers: June 21, 2012 Camera ready submission: July 06, 2012 Working Conference: September 23 - 24, 2012 PROCEEDINGS *********** All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings which will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press. Best papers from SCAM 2012 will be considered for revision, extension, and publication in a special issue of the Journal of Software: Evolution and Process.
