IMPORTANT DATES
---------------------------
Abstract submission: February 1, 2013
Paper submission deadline: February 15, 2013
Workshop proposal submission: February 15, 2013
Notification of acceptance: March 30, 2013
Camera-ready material for publication: April 20, 2013

Conference date: July 17-19, 2013

Complex computer systems are common in many sectors, such as
manufacturing, communications, defense, transportation, aerospace,
hazardous environments, energy, and health care. These systems are
frequently distributed over heterogeneous networks, and are driven by
many diverse requirements on performance, real-time behavior, fault
tolerance, security, adaptability, development time and cost, long
life concerns, and other areas. Such requirements frequently conflict,
and their satisfaction therefore requires managing the trade-off among
them during system development and throughout the entire system
life. The goal of this conference is to bring together industrial,
academic, and government experts, from a variety of user domains and
software disciplines, to determine how the disciplines' problems and
solution techniques interact within the whole system. Researchers,
practitioners, tool developers and users, and technology transition
experts are all welcome. The scope of interest includes long-term
research issues, near-term complex system requirements and promising
tools, existing complex systems, and commercially available tools.


SCOPE AND TOPICS
---------------------------
Authors are invited to submit papers describing original, unpublished
research results, case studies and toolset research results, case
studies and tools. Papers are solicited in all areas related to
complex computer-based systems, including the causes of complexity and
means of avoiding, controlling, or coping with complexity. Topic areas
include, but are not limited to:

Requirement specification and analysis
Verification and validation
Security and privacy of complex systems
Model-driven development
Reverse engineering and refactoring
Architecture software
Big Data Management
Ambient intelligence, pervasive computing
Ubiquitous computing, context awareness, sensor networks
Design by contract
Agile methods
Safety-critical & fault-tolerant architectures
Adaptive, self-managing and multi-agent systems
Real-time, hybrid and embedded systems
Systems of systems
Tools and tool integration
Industrial case studies


SUBMISSION
---------------------------
Different kinds of contributions are sought, including novel research,
lessons learned, experience reports, and discussions of practical
problems faced by industry and user domains. The ultimate goal is to
build a rich and comprehensive conference program that can fit the
interests and needs of different classes of attendees: professionals,
researchers, managers, and students. A program goal is to organize
several sessions that include both academic and industrial papers on a
given topic and culminate panels to discuss relationships between
industrial and academic research. Papers are divided into two
categories: Technical Papers and Experience Reports. The papers
submitted to both categories will be reviewed by program committee
members, and papers accepted in either category will be published in
the conference proceedings. Technical papers should describe original
research, and industrial experience reports should describe practical
projects carried out in industry, and reflect on the lessons learnt
from them.

FULL PAPERS
Full papers are divided into two categories: Technical Papers and
Experience Reports. The papers submitted to both categories will be
reviewed by program committee members, and papers accepted in either
category will be published in the conference proceedings. Technical
papers should describe original research, and experience reports
should present practical projects carried out in industry, and reflect
on the lessons learnt from them.

POSTER PAPERS
Poster paper submissions should specify in their abstract whether they
describe ongoing or PhD research. Both types of poster papers will be
reviewed by program committee members, and accepted posters will be
published in the conference proceedings.

PAPER SUBMISSION
Submitted manuscripts should be in English and formatted in the style
of the IEEE Computer Society Proceedings Format. Papers should not
exceed 10 pages for full papers and 2 pages for poster papers,
including figures, references, and appendices. All submissions should
be in PDF format. Submissions not adhering to the specified format and
length may be rejected immediately, without review.

All submissions should be made through the Easychair Website:
