Register Now for ICSE 2011 Technical Briefings

EARLY REGISTRATION DEADLINE:  APRIL 15, 2011

ICSE Technical Briefings provide a venue for communicating new insights, knowledge, and skills in a broad range of areas of software engineering. Participants at the technical briefings include practitioners, managers, teachers, researchers and students seeking to gain a better understanding of particular aspects of software engineering. Technical Briefings are a great way to get a broad overview of multiple topics in a single day. Prior experience in the topic areas is not necessary.

The Technical Briefings program will be held on Tuesday, May 24, 2011, the day before the main conference. Individual briefings will be on particular topics and will be 90 minutes long. There will be three parallel tracks, for a total of 12 briefings.

A common question is "Are Technical Briefings the same as tutorials?" The answer is that they are a new and improved type of tutorial. In the previous ICSE tutorial model, attendees had to commit to just one topic for a whole or half day. Instead, with the Technical Briefings program, registrants can attend four full technical briefings in just one day or hop between all twelve. Attendees do not have to decide which briefs to attend in advance, and, best of all, attendees get all this for just one price!

Festschrift for Lee Osterweil

Festschrift in Celebration of Leon J. Osterweil
Tuesday May 24 at ICSE 2011, Honolulu, Hawaii
 
EARLY REGISTRATION DEADLINE: April 15, 2011

 

Software engineering research can trace its roots to a small number of highly influential individuals. Among that select group is Prof. Leon J. Osterweil, whose work has fundamentally defined or impacted major directions in software analysis, development tools and environments, and software process. His exceptional and sustained contributions to the field have been recognized with awards from ACM SIGSOFT for research and education.

The Festschrift in celebration of Lee's achievements will feature presentations by prominent members of our community, examining the past and modern influence of Lee's work on flow analysis, software tools and environments, and of course software process. Every attendee will receive a copy of the newly published book, "Engineering of Software: The Continuing Contributions of Leon J. Osterweil". Published by Springer, the book assembles Lee's most important publications to date together with several new contributions from leading authors.

Schedule for the day:

08:30 Welcome and Introductions
  speakers: Peri Tarr, Alexander Wolf
09:00 Software Tools and Environments
  speakers: Lori Clarke, Dewayne Perry, Richard Taylor
10:00 Break
10:30 Flow Analysis
  speakers: Matthew Dwyer, Jonathan Aldrich, Eric Bodden, Barbara Ryder, Zhendong Su
12:00 Lunch
13:30 Software Process
  speakers: Stanley M. Sutton Jr., Wilhelm Schaefer, Carlo Ghezzi, Volker Gruhn, Takuya Katayama, Qing Wang
15:00 break
15:30 The Future of Software Engineering
  speaker: Leon J. Osterweil
17:00 Reception

 

If you are unable to attend, you can still purchase the accompanying book while supplies last. Please contact Peri Tarr (peri.tarr@us.ibm.com) or Alexander Wolf (a.wolf@imperial.ac.uk) for order information.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Organizers: Peri Tarr and Alexander Wolf
Area coordinators: Lori Clarke, Matthew Dwyer, Wilhelm Schaefer, and Stanley M. Sutton Jr.

New Faculty and Researchers Symposium at ICSE 2011

Early Registration Deadline:  April 15th

The challenge of becoming a new assistant professor at a university or a researcher at a research lab is one that most people accept with enthusiasm and energy, but also with some trepidation. This first position is a signal of accomplishment and the culmination of many years of hard work but itsignals the start of another round of hard work and challenges that are new and often unfamiliar. Among these new challenges are establishing an independent research program, learning how to teach, learning how to mentor, and deciding how to balance career and personal life. For a new software engineering faculty member or researcher there are additional challenges such as obtaining financial support, supervising the development of software systems, and dealing with skeptical faculty colleagues from other disciplines.

The New Faculty and Researchers Symposium (NFRS), which was first held in conjunction with ICSE 01 in Toronto, has been organized with the goal of helping new software engineering faculty members and researchers feel more comfortable and confident in dealing with these many challenges. NFRS features presentations by leading academic software engineering faculty and researchers who provide advice and guidance based up their personal
experiences and insights into the contemporary academic software engineering community. There is also ample time for informal and small group interactions with the presenters and other attendees.

NFRS is designed to be a service to those who are within two years of(either before or after) their initial tenure track academic or research lab appointment, although the symposium may be of significant interest and value to others.

Register now: early registration closes on April 15th!

NF&RS Schedule is available at:
