dbjapan の皆様今年の９月に開催されます ICSM 2004(International Conference on Software Maintenance)の Call For Paper を送付させていただきます。ご参考になれば幸いです。よろしくお願い致します。趙建軍福岡工業大学情報工学部情報工学科 Email: zhao(a)cs.fit.ac.jp http://www.fit.ac.jp/~zhao/ -------------------------------------------------------------------------- IEEE International Conference on Software Maintenance 2004 Sponsored by IEEE ICSM 2004, 11-17 September 2004, Chicago IL USA http://www.cs.iit.edu/~icsm2004 Call for Papers The International Conference on Software Maintenance (ICSM) is the world's major international conference for software and systems maintenance, evolution, and management. For the 20th ICSM 2004 we invite you to join us in exploring issues related to maintaining, modifying, enhancing, and testing operational systems and designing, building, testing, and evolving maintainable systems. ICSM 2004 will address the major challenges confronting maintenance and evolution. We will concentrate on identifying new opportunities for collaboration between researchers and practitioners. RESEARCH PAPERS Research papers should describe original and significant work in the research and practice of software maintenance and evolution. Research papers may also describe a significant experience in applying software maintenance and evolution technology. Case studies, empirical research, and well-designed experiments are particularly welcome. We also welcome papers that present leading edge and novel ideas in maintenance. Research papers must not exceed 10 pages in final printed form. Submission deadline: March 1 2004. INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS Proposals for presentations of Industrial Applications are welcome. These can be state-of-the-art descriptions, experience reports, and survey reports from real projects, industrial practices and models, or tool demonstrations. A dedicated sub-committee of the Program Committee will review Industrial Application proposals. A one-page summary of accepted proposals will be included in the conference proceedings. Submission deadline: March 30 2004. PANELS ICSM 2004 invites proposals for panel sessions that serve to stimulate discussion about ideas and issues of importance to the software maintenance community. We particularly welcome proposals for highly interactive panel sessions that encourage discussion and debate. Submission deadline: March 30 2004. TOOL EXHIBITIONS We invite one-page proposal submissions for both commercial and research tools. The proposal should include a description of the tool and its applicability to software maintenance and specify the type of exhibition ("Research Prototype" or "Vendor Tool"). ICSM 2004 will provide accommodations for presenters of accepted tool proposals in the tool exhibition conference room. Presenters are asked to bring their own equipment and are responsible for their own set up. Submission deadline: March 30 2004. DISSERTATION FORUM We welcome submissions of researchers that are planning to deliver their dissertation in the next year or have delivered their dissertation (PhD) in the last three years. This forum is for PhD students to discuss their research goals, methods and results at an early stage in their research. It is an opportunity to interact with other students at a similar stage in their careers, established researchers, and the broader software maintenance and evolution community. Please submit a synopsis of your dissertation and/or the full dissertation in Postscript or PDF. The synopsis must not exceed four pages. Accepted synopses will be included in the conference proceedings and a special Dissertation Forum session will be organized at the conference where you can present your results. Submission deadline: March 30 2004. TUTORIALS Tutorials offer an opportunity for practitioners and researchers to get a fast expert introduction to a specific maintenance theme. If you have expertise on specific software evolution methods, techniques, or processes, submit a tutorial proposal to ICSM 2004. Your proposal should include learning objectives, a description of the target audience, intended duration (half day or full day), a content summary, and a brief (50 words max.) curriculum of the teachers. Tutorials will be selected based on relevance, quality, and ability to attract sufficient interest. Two-page descriptions of accepted Tutorials will be included in the Proceedings. Submission deadline: March 30 2004. ADDITIONAL SPECIAL PUBLICATIONS There will be a special issue of IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering (http://www.computer.org/tse) featuring extended versions of best papers from ICSM 2004. All papers accepted for ICSM 2004 will be candidates for this special issue. Additional papers featuring empirical aspects of software maintenance will be eligible for a special issue of the Journal of Empirical Software Engineering (http://www.kluweronline.com/issn/1382- 3256). MEDIA AND STYLE Submissions will be accepted only as Microsoft Word, Adobe Acrobat PDF, or PostScript electronic submission. All submissions must be in English.

08 Feb '04

To the foreign database researchers in Japan It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Prof. Yahiko Kambayashi, due to cerebral hemorrhage at 4:42AM on February 06, 2004. Prof. Kambayashi was the Dean of Graduate School of Informatics at Kyoto University. He was a Fellow of IEEE. He contributed to several areas of database research such as database design, query processing, and object databases. Prof. Kambayashi served as a VLDB trustee from 1991 to 1996, receiving the SIGMOD Contributions Award in 1995 for his many professional services in Japan and internationally. He did a great contribution to database research community in Japan and was a Fellow of IPSJ(Information Processing Society Japan) and a Fellow of IEICE( Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers). We are deeply saddened by the untimely loss of Prof. Kambayashi. Many of us will remember him as a friend, mentor, and a leader of the Japanese database community. We will miss him dearly.
