ECSA 2017 Workshops

A series of workshops will be held in conjunction with ECSA 2017 to encourage the exchange of ideas and to discuss challenging research issues in software architecture. Workshops will be held before the main conference on 11 – 12 September, 2017. Papers accepted for the workshops will be published in the ACM Digital Library.

 

MeSSa 2017 – 4th International Workshop on Measurability of Security in Software Architectures

URL: http://www.vtt.fi/messa2017

Security measurement of software architectures is needed to produce sufficient evidence of security level as early as in the design phase. Security at system and network level has received much attention but the role of software architecture in security has received little consideration. Yet it is increasingly important in the overall picture, requiring sets of design patterns, measurements, metrics, best practices, and means to integrate this cost-effectively in the overall design and operational profiles.

CASA 2017 – Workshop on Context-aware, Autonomous and Smart Architecture

URL: https://casa2017.github.io/CASA-ECSA2017/

The aim of ECSA 2017 Workshop on Context-aware, Autonomous, and Smart Architectures (CASA) is to address the issues and challenges raised by the design, implementation, and evaluation of software systems characterized by the above-mentioned keywords. Novel design and development approaches are needed to face the new issues raised by such systems. New solutions are expected to address properly the trade-offs among th various quality attributes characterizing these systems. Or, existing architectural solutions should be adapted and improved to meet the evolving and dynamic requirements of context-aware, autonomous, and smart systems.

SAGRA 2017 – 3rd Workshop on Sustainable Architecture: Global Collaboration, Requirements, Analysis (SAGRA)

URL: https://sagra2017.wordpress.com/

The goal of the ECSA 2017 SAGRA workshop is to develop a future vision and roadmap of sustainable software architecture, focusing especially on requirements engineering and methodological analysis, as well as on collaborative and intercultural aspects. Designing a sustainable software architecture is a non-trivial task, especially in the case of large scale and/or long-living systems. The task becomes even more complicated when we take into account collaborative and intercultural aspects of the software development, requirements traceability and big data management. Practitioners require architecture metrics that support sustainable software architectures reflecting quality attributes such as maintainability, extensibility, reliability, integrity, etc.

SAEroCon – The 4th Workshop on Software Architecture Erosion and Architectural Consistency

URL: https://saerocon.wordpress.com/

The goal of ECSA 2017 SAEroCon workshop is to intensify the exchange of ideas regarding the current state-of-the-art/the state-of-the-practice and future research directions regarding architecture consistency, architecture recovery and restoration and ways to prevent and mitigate against architecture erosion. Technical challenges related to these problems are the recovery of intended architectures, particularly for legacy systems without documented intended architecture prone to erosion; detection of erosion, drift, and inconsistencies; and avoiding or resolving the results of these effects efficiently. The workshop will host ìhands-onî architecting sessions in which architects of open source system will interact with researchers and tools to derive/recover architectural views of their systems.
