7th International Symposium on Software Composition (SC 2008)

SC 2008 is co-located with ETAPS 2008 in Budapest, Hungary and will be held on March 29-30 2008.

Proceedings are now available on Springer LNCS 4954 and on DBLP

The goal of the Software Composition Symposium series is to advance the research in all areas of component-based software development. Main challenges cover their development, reuse, composition, and verification. Another challenges is that component-based software development should scale from large systems down to devices with limited computing capabilities.

Topics of interests include but are not restricted to:

• Composition and adaptation techniques
• Composition languages, calculi and type systems
• Aspect-oriented programming
• Semantics-based composition and analysis of component systems
• Verification, validation and testing techniques
• Dynamic composition and reconfiguration
• Composition issues in industrial-strength component systems and frameworks
• Composition aspects of service-oriented architectures
• Software composition in pervasive computing environments
• Mashups - software composition for the Web
• Visual composition environments and tools
• Model-driven composition
• Business Process orchestration
• Performance optimization of composite systems

Papers relating theory and practice are particularly welcome.
