*******************************************************************

We cordially invite you to submit your paper to the 1st Workshop on Code 
Quality and Security (CQS 2021) of the WorldCist'21 - 9th World 
Conference on Information Systems and Technologies 
(http://www.worldcist.org/index.php <http://www.worldcist.org/index.php>).

*Scope

* WorldCist'21 - 9th World Conference on Information Systems and 
Technologies, to be held in Terceira Island, Azores, Portugal, 30-31 
March to 1-2 April 2021,
is a global forum for researchers and practitioners to present and 
discuss the most recent innovations, trends, results, experiences and 
concerns in the several perspectives of Information Systems and 
Technologies.
The 1st Workshop on Code Quality and Security (CQS 2021) focus on the 
emergent new paradigms, technologies and challenges for programming on 
software development.
Being essencialy a manual process, and considring that there are 
specific guidelines for software analysis, modelling, and even team 
management, the code quality and security is ignored by most developers.
In this workshop we will deal with this problem in different ways, 
intending to answer to the following questions:

1) Code Standards: how code should be written, what idioms to use, how 
to comment and how to document code. What standards are available, and 
what tools can be used to perform validation?
2) Code Security: the different aspects a developer needs to take 
attention to when developing an application in order to make it secure. 
What tools are available to check for possible implementation flaws?
3) Code Quality: how to guarantee the software does what it is intended 
to? How to test software? What test frameworks and approaches are available?
4) Code Certification: what different types of certification is 
available for applications? What means to certify an application? What 
levels of certification are available? What applications can be used in 
a particular domain, for instance, in Health industry?
5) Code organization: how to structure code? modules, libraries, 
components? How to deploy? How to maintain code? Containers and dockers
6) Coding strategies: strategies to cooperate in programming, in 
contexts of physical distance requirement? freelancers quality 
monitoring? management of the quality of the project?

*Topics of interest:*

·       Code generation and automation development tools
·       Code quality assessment, static and dynamic code analysis
·       Techniques for code quality: unit testing, test-based 
development, feature driven development.
·       Code standards and legibility metrics
·       Code security and security assessment tools
·       Certification, and tools to support certificated-software 
development.
·       Code quality in DevOps
·       Code reviews and analytics for Web
·       Code Design Patterns
·       Code maintenance
·       Code protection

*Submission and Paper Format*
Submissions must be of one of two types:
-Full paper: Finished and consolidated R&D works. These papers are 
assigned a 10-page limit;
-Short paper: Ongoing works with relevant preliminary results open to 
discussion. These papers are assigned a 7-page limit.

Submitted papers must comply with the format of Advances in Intelligent 
Systems and Computing Series (see Instructions for Authors at Springer 
Website or download a DOC example) be written in English, must not have 
been published before, not be under review for any other conference, 
workshop or publication and not include any information leading to the 
authors’ identification. Therefore, the authors’ names, affiliations, 
and bibliographic references should not be included in the version for 
evaluation by the Program Committee. This information should only be 
included in the camera-ready version, saved in Word or Latex format, and 
also in PDF format. These files must be accompanied by the Publication 
form filled out, in a ZIP file, and uploaded at the conference

All papers will be subjected to a “double-blind review” by at least 
two/three members of the Program Committee of the specific workshop. The 
version of papers for evaluation by the Program Committee, saved in PDF 
format, must not include identification, e-mail, and affiliation of the 
authors. This information must only be available in the camera-ready 
version of accepted papers, saved in Word or Latex format, and also in 
PDF format. These files must be accompanied by the Consent to Publish 
form filled out, in a ZIP file, and uploaded at the conference 
management system.

Full and short papers accepted and registered will be published in 
Proceedings by Springer, will be submitted for indexation by ISI, 
EI-Compendex, SCOPUS, and DBLP, among others, and will be available in 
the SpringerLink Digital Library. The authors of the best-selected 
papers will be invited to extend them for publication in renowned 
international journals indexed by ISI, SCOPUS, and DBLP (see WorldCIST 
conference website for more details).

*Best papers:*
- The best paper will be invited to submit an extender version to 
Scimago Journal special issue
