[Jennifer Horkoff]

CALL FOR PAPERS: Sixth International i* Workshop (iStar'13)
Valencia, Spain, 17-21 June, 2013
Co-located with the 25th International Conference on Advanced Information
Systems Engineering (CAiSE'13).

www.cin.ufpe.br/~istar13

A growing number of groups around the world have been using the i*
modelling framework in their research on early requirements engineering,
business process design, organization modelling, software development
methodologies, and more. Following successful workshops in Trento (2002),
London (2005), Recife (2008), Hammamet (2010), and Trento (2011) it is time
for another meeting focusing on i*, GRL, Tropos, and related frameworks, to
exchange ideas, compare notes, and forge new collaborations.

We cordially invite you and members of your group to join us at the Sixth
International i* Workshop. The 2-day workshop will be held in Valencia,
Spain, 17-21 June, 2013, as a co-located event with the 25th International
Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAiSE'13).
Following a successful Tools Fair in iStar'11, we will be accepting papers
and demos concerning iStar-related tools.

FORMAT

The objective of the workshop is to share knowledge, stimulate discussion
and foster new lines of research and collaboration among different groups.

To support these goals, we will schedule as much time for discussion as for
presentations - the actual time will depend on the final number of accepted
papers. For every accepted paper, we will assign one discussant that will
provide an initial position about the paper once presented, and then
discussion will follow. If the schedule allows, we plan to include further
occasions for discussion in the program, in addition to the customary
wrap-up session.

The program will also include a keynote talk.

PAPER SUBMISSIONS

Contributions should be 4-6 pages in LNCS format, describing current and
ongoing research related the i* framework. The contribution shall adhere to
the following structure:

- Title, authors, abstract
- Section 1. Introduction.
- Section 2. Objectives of the research.
- Section 3. Scientific contributions. If you have tool support, please
mention and describe it explicitly
- Section 4. Conclusions. Of particular interest are any assessments of i*
and related frameworks, including industrial experiences
- Section 5. Ongoing and future work
- References. Please restrict references to mainly your own work.

All submissions should be uploaded to easychair:
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=istar13

All submissions will be peer-reviewed and accepted works will be published
in the CEUR Workshop Proceedings Series.

TOOL SUBMISSIONS

The i* Workshop will include a slot for tool demos. The demos will consist
of a two-minute presentation of two slides (automatic transition from one
slide to the next will be enforced) and then the floor will be opened for
demos.

In order to submit a tool, fill out a form providing information about your
tool by creating a wiki page on the i* wiki (
http://istar.rwth-aachen.de/tiki-index.php?page=i*+Tools). If a page on the
wiki already exists for your tool, please update it as appropriate.
 Contact istarwiki at dbis.rwth-aachen.de if you require a new user name and
password for the wiki.

Prepare a three page description of the tool, using LNCS format.
 Descriptions should include a screen shot of the tool and should cover the
following points:

- Tool name and version
- Download information/availability
- Web page and documentation
- Goal modeling framework supported
- Main purpose of the tool
- Primary features
- Status and maturity
- Limitations and future plans
- Interoperability with other tools
- Use in industrial case studies (if applicable)

All descriptions should be uploaded to easychair:
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=istar13

The tool submissions will be peer-reviewed and published in the CEUR
Workshop Proceedings Series, as part of the iStar workshop proceedings.
