Zusammenfassung: The Workshop aims to provide a forum for discussing the interplay between requirements engineering and conceptual modeling, and in particular, to investigate how goal- and intention-driven approaches help in conceptualising purposeful systems.

Zusammenfassung: Parallel Computing (PC) is a subject discussed in the context of high performance computing (HPC). The goal of HPC is to find faster solutions to larger and more complex problems. This area is a highly interdisciplinary area ranging from numerical analysis and algorithm design to programming languages, computer architectures, software and real applications. The participants include engineers, computer scientists, applied mathematicians, physicists, and many others. This concentrates on well developed and more research oriented parallel algorithms in science and engineering that have traditionally relied on high performance computing.

PC operates on the principle that large problems can often be divided into smaller ones, which are then solved concurrently.

There are several different forms of parallel computing:

1. Bit-level parallelism
2. Instruction-level parallelism
3. Data parallelism
4. Task parallelism

Zusammenfassung: Domain-specific knowledge is traditionally integrated in the software development process in an ad hoc and partial fashion, without much formal basis or tools. Nevertheless, the concept of domain expertise intervenes at all stages of the continuum of modeling, programming, and compiling. Putting domain expertise at the center of the software development process entails providing abstractions that are well adapted to expressing problems in the domain, providing verifications that capture essential domain properties, and providing implementation strategies that take domain requirements into account.

These issues have been considered in the fields of modeling, programming, and compiling, but in isolation. Indeed, the field of domain-specific modeling has had little influence on the design of domain-specific programming languages, and the design of domain-specific programming languages has been considered independently of implementation techniques. The purpose of this workshop is to bring together researchers in these fields to identify possible points of synergy, common problems and solutions, and visions for the future.

Zusammenfassung: The International Conference on Software Engineering Advances (ICSEA 2008) initiates a series of events covering a broad spectrum of software-related topics. The conference covers fundamentals on designing, implementing, testing, validating and maintaining various kinds of software. Several tracks are proposed to treat the topics from theory to practice, in terms of methodologies, design, implementation, testing, use cases, tools, and lessons learnt. The conference topics cover classical and advanced methodologies, open source, agile software, as well as software deployment and software economics and education.

Whatever ones specific discipline, all researchers in Computer Science and related disciplines are additionally experts in the domain of research itself. The nature of research varies slightly with the specific discipline researchers work in, yet there is much common ground and room for a sharing of best practice, frameworks, tools, languages and methodologies.

Zusammenfassung: Software project managers require reliable methods for estimating software project costs, and assessing software development productivity. For over 25 years, there has been considerable research effort directed towards software cost estimation and software productivity analysis, various algorithmic approaches developed and their performance reported in the research literature. But nevertheless, cost estimation and productivity analysis remains a complex problem in the software industry.

The goal of the workshop on software productivity analysis and cost estimation, SPACE 2008, is to bring together practitioners and researchers for discussion and presentation on the emerging aspects pertaining to software cost estimation, productivity analysis, prediction models and techniques, and lessons learned. The workshop provides a forum to present new ideas and to explore future directions in these areas for software engineering and software project management.

Zusammenfassung: The 41st International Symposium on Microarchitecture is the premier forum for presenting, discussing, and debating innovative microarchitecture ideas and techniques for advanced computing and communication systems. This symposium brings together researchers in fields related to microarchitecture, compilers, chips, and systems for technical exchange on traditional microarchitecture topics and emerging research areas. The MICRO community has enjoyed a close interaction between academic researchers and industrial designers and we aim to continue this tradition at MICRO-41.

Zusammenfassung: IEEE PerCom, now in its seventh year, is established as the worldwide premier scholarly venue in the areas of pervasive computing and communications. Since 2003, the conference has grown significantly in terms of quality and variety of the technical programs - it is recognized as a top tier conference by most universities and organizations across the world.

The conference boasts many workshops that have become popular and prestigious in the community. The Mark Weiser Best Paper award sponsored by Elsevier Publications is the most prestigious annual research paper award given in pervasive computing. The best of the best technical papers from PerCom are published in a special issue of the Pervasive and Mobile Computing Journal. Demonstration sessions at PerCom show case the very best working prototypes. Recently introduced events such as the Work-in-Progress Posters and the PhD Forum are already high quality events with a very competitive acceptance process.
