SLE 2014 - Call for Participation

Craig Anslow
 =======================================
CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

7th International Conference on Software Language Engineering (SLE) 2014

Vasteras, Sweden, September 15-16, 2014 

http://www.sleconf.org/2014/

Co-located with: 

29th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software Engineering (ASE 2014)
13th International Conference on Generative Programming: Concepts and Experiences (GPCE 2014)

---------------------------------------------------------
IMPORTANT DATES

SLE workshops: 14 September, 2014
Conference: 15-16 September, 2014

---------------------------------------------------------
SCOPE

Software Language Engineering (SLE) is the application of systematic, disciplined, and measurable approaches to the development, use, deployment, and maintenance of software languages. The term "software language" is used broadly, and includes: general-purpose programming languages; domain-specific languages (e.g. BPMN, Simulink, Modelica); modeling and metamodeling languages (e.g. SysML and UML); data models and ontologies (e.g. XML-based and OWL-based languages and vocabularies).

---------------------------------------------------------
TOPICS OF INTEREST

The overall principle of SLE is to be broad-minded and inclusive about relevance and scope. We solicit high-quality contributions in areas ranging from theoretical and conceptual contributions to tools, techniques, and frameworks. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

- Tools and methods for software language design and extension (incl. meta-languages, meta-tools, language workbenches)
- Generative approaches, transformation and transformation languages, code generation
- Techniques for analysing software language descriptions
- Techniques for software language reuse, evolution and managing variation (syntactic/semantic) within language families
- Integration and coordination of software languages and tools
- Engineering Domain-Specific Languages (for modeling, simulating, generation, description, checking)
- Novel applications and/or empirical studies on any aspect of SLE (development, use, deployment, and maintenance of software languages)
- Cross-fertilization of different technological spaces (e.g. modelware, grammarware, etc)

INVITED SPEAKER

Title: From Language Engineering to Viewpoint Engineering

Speaker: Colin Atkinson, University of Mannheim

Abstract:

As software systems increase in size and complexity, and are expected to cope with ever more quantities of information from ever more sources, there is an urgent and growing need for a more view-oriented approach to software engineering. Views allow stakeholders to see exactly the right information, at exactly the right time, in a way that best matches their capabilities and goals. However, this is only possible if the information is represented in the optimal languages (i.e. domain- and purpose-specific), with the necessary context information and the optimal manipulation/editing features - that is, if information is viewed from the optimal viewpoints. Rather than merely engineering languages, therefore, software engineers in the future will need to engineer viewpoints, which augment language definitions (e.g. meta-models, syntax ...) with context information (e.g. elision, location, perspective ...) and user-interaction information (e.g. editing pallets, view manipulation services ...). In this talk Colin Atkinson will outline the issues faced in supporting the flexible and efficient engineering of viewpoints and will present some key foundations of a fundamentally view-oriented approach to software engineering
