(co-located with ESWEEK'07)

Sponsored by ACM SIGPLAN, in cooperation with ACM SIGSOFT.
GPCE'07 proceedings published by ACM Press.




Important Dates

Scope

Generative and component approaches are revolutionizing software development similar to how automation and components revolutionized manufacturing. Generative Programming (developing programs that synthesize other programs), Component Engineering (raising the level of modularization and analysis in application design), and Domain-Specific Languages (elevating program specifications to compact domain-specific notations that are easier to write, maintain, and analyze) are key technologies for automating program development.

GPCE provides a venue for researchers and practitioners interested in foundational techniques for enhancing the productivity, quality, and time-to-market in software development that stems from deploying standard componentry and automating program generation. In addition to exploring cutting-edge techniques for developing generative and component-based software, our goal is to foster further cross-fertilization between the software engineering research community and the programming languages community. As GPCE is co-located with ESWEEK this year, we also especially encourage papers from the embedded systems community.

Submissions

10 pages in SIGPLAN proceedings style (sigplanconf.cls) reporting research results and/or experience related to the topics above (PC chair can advise on appropriateness). We particularly encourage original high-quality reports on applying GPCE technologies to real-world problems, relating ideas and concepts from several topics, or bridging the gap between theory and practice.

To submit a paper, go to the electronic submission page. Please note that in contrast to last year, GPCE 2007 is not using a double-blind reviewing process.

Topics

GPCE seeks contributions in software engineering and in programming languages related (but not limited) to:

* Generative programming * Reuse, meta-programming, partial evaluation, multi-stage and multi-level languages, and step-wise refinement * Semantics, type systems, symbolic computation, linking and explicit substitution, in-lining and macros, templates, and program transformation * Runtime code generation, compilation, active libraries, synthesis from specifications, development methods, generation of non-code artifacts, formal methods, and reflection * Generative techniques for * Product-line architectures * Distributed, real-time and embedded systems * Model-driven development and architecture * Resource bounded/safety critical systems. * Component-based software engineering * Reuse, distributed platforms and middleware, distributed systems, evolution, patterns, development methods, deployment and configuration techniques, and formal methods * Integration of generative and component-based approaches * Domain engineering and domain analysis * Domain-specific languages (DSLs) including visual and UML-based DSLs * Separation of concerns * Aspect-oriented and feature-oriented programming, * Intentional programming and multi-dimensional separation of concerns * Industrial applications * Applications in embedded systems

Reports on applications of these techniques to real-world problems are especially encouraged, as are submissions that relate ideas and concepts from several of these topics, or bridge the gap between theory and practice. The program chair is happy to advise on the appropriateness of a particular subject.

Submissions must adhere to SIGPLAN's republication policy. Please contact the program chair if you have any questions about how this policy applies to your paper.
