[AISWorld] CfP: Int'l WSs on Software Ecosystems and Ecosystem Architectures

Thu Apr 9 04:17:04 EDT 2015

7th Workshop on Software Ecosystems (IWSECO)
http://iwseco.org/

3rd International Workshop on Ecosystem Architectures (WEA)
http://wea.github.com

Co-located with the European Conference on Software Architecture (ECSA)
Dubrovnik/Cavtat, Croatia,
September 07 – 11, 2015

Software ecosystems are becoming increasingly pervasive, leading to new
research, management, and engineering challenges. Opening product
architectures and platforms for third parties, designing closed innovation
networks among partners through APIs and SDKs, coordinating multiple
platforms, or participative engineering across organizational borders are
all variants of ecosystems that come with their own opportunities and
threats at the same time.

IWSECO and WEA aim to further increase the body of knowledge about software
ecosystems by providing a forum to exchange ideas and discuss the most
recent innovations, trends and experiences in the field. They aim to build
and shape the community of leading practitioners and research experts by
providing forums for the exchange of research results and industrial
practice in software ecosystems.

Co-organizing IWSECO and WEA will provide a venue for practitioners and
researchers to share their lessons learned in two cross-cutting aspects of
software ecosystems:
(1) business and social
(2) architecture and technology
The co-organization allows us to attract and involve a larger group of
interested participants from the software architecture community.

RELEVANT TOPICS

The co-organized workshops IWSECO and WEA seek submissions of papers
describing novel research, experience reports, and emerging ideas. We
invite the submission from research and industrial practice describing
original and unpublished results in the field of software ecosystems.
Topics of interest include, but are certainly not limited to:

   - Ecosystem and platform architecture, evolution and lifecycle
   - Tools for inter-system static and/or dynamic analysis, visualization,
   and monitoring
   - App architectures and app orchestration
   - Experience reports on best practices in ecosystem design, modeling and
   architectures
   - Empirical studies of ecosystem phenomena
   - Processes for ecosystems and community management
   - Business cases, economics, strategies and governance for software
   ecosystems
   - Social and collaborative aspects of software ecosystems

And everything that enables to scale architectures up to the level of
software ecosystems!

SUBMISSIONS

We welcome both research and industry papers. They must be original and not
submitted to or accepted by any other workshop, conference or journal. All
accepted papers will be published in the ACM digital library.
Papers should not exceed 6 pages.

Submissions must follow the ACM SIG Proceedings Style, 2-column. Templates
can be downloaded at
