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 and maintain) are key technologies for automating program development. GPCE arose as a joint conference, merging the conference on Generative and Component-Based Software Engineering (GCSE) and the workshop on Semantics, Applications, and Implementation of Program Generation (SAIG). The goal of GPCE is to provide a meeting place for researchers and practitioners interested in cutting edge approaches to software development. We aim to foster further cross-fertilization between the software engineering research community and the programming languages community, in addition to supporting the original research goals of both the GCSE and the SAIG communities. {\bf Submissions.} (15 pages in LNCS style) reporting research results and/or experience related to the topics above (PC co-chairs can advise on appropriateness). We especially encouraged original high-quality reports on applications to real-world problems, relating ideas and concepts from several topics, or bridging the gap between theory and practice. {\bf Topics.} GPCE seeks contributions in software engineering and in programming languages related (but not limited) to: {\small\setlength{\leftmargini}{3mm} \begin{tabular}[t]{p{6.3cm}} Generative programming \begin{itemize} \item Reuse, meta-programming, partial evaluation, multi-stage and multi-level languages, step-wise refinement \item Semantics, type systems, symbolic computation, linking and explicit substitution, in-lining and macros, templates, program transformation \item Runtime code generation, compilation, active libraries, synthesis from specifications, development methods, generation of non-code artifacts, formal methods, reflection \end{itemize} Generative techniques for \begin{itemize} \item Product lines and architectures \item Embedded systems \item Model-driven architecture \end{itemize} \end{tabular} \hfill \begin{tabular}[t]{p{5.8cm}} Component-based software engineering \begin{itemize} \item Reuse, distributed platforms, distributed systems, evolution, analysis and design patterns, development methods, formal methods \end{itemize} Integration of generative and component-based approaches Domain engineering and domain analysis \begin{itemize} \item Domain-specific languages (DSLs) including visual and UML-based DSLs \end{itemize} Separation of concerns \begin{itemize} \item Aspect-oriented and feature-oriented programming, \item Intentional programming and multi-dimensional separation of concerns \end{itemize} Industrial applications \end{tabular}} \end{minipage} \hfill \begin{minipage}[t]{5.5cm} \begin{boxedminipage}[t]{5.5cm} {\bf Important dates}\\ Apr 10, 2005 : Abstracts due\\ Apr 15, 2005 : Papers/demos due\\ May 30, 2005 : Notification \smallskip Sep 27-28, 2005 :\\ GPCE workshops and tutorials \smallskip Sep 29 - Oct 1, 2005 :\\ GPCE papers and demos \bigskip {\bf General chair} \\ Eugenio Moggi \\ {\bf Publicity chair} \\ Eelco Visser \\ {\bf Program committee chairs} \\ Robert Gl\"uck \\ Michael Lowry \\ {\bf Workshops/Tutorials chairs} \\ Jeff Gray, Andrew Malton \\ {\bf Local arrangements chair}\\ Tarmo Uustalu \bigskip {\bf Program Committee}\\ Don Batory \\ Ira Baxter \\ Cristiano Calcagno \\ Prem Devanbu \\ Ulrich Eisenecker \\ Tom Ellman \\ Robert Filman \\ Zhenjiang Hu \\ Patricia Johann \\ John Launchbury \\ Anne-Françoise Le Meur \\ Hong Mei \\ Nicolas Rouquette \\ William Scherlis \\ Yannis Smaragdakis \\ Walid Taha \\ Todd Veldhuizen \end{boxedminipage} \end{minipage} {\bf GPCE Tutorials} giving a deeper or broader insight than conventional lectures (they extend over a half or a full day): \begin{tabular}{lp{17cm}} T1:&Multi-stage Programming in MetaOCaml (Presenters: W.Taha and C.Calcagno)\\ T2:&Implementing Domain-Specific Modelling Languages andGenerators (Presenters: R.Pohjonen and J-P.Tolvanen)\\ T3:&Challenges and Best Practices of Generative Software Engineering in the Context of Large Complex Business Applications (Presenter: M.M.Davydov) \end{tabular} {\bf GPCE Workshops} providing intensive collaborative environments, where generative and component technologists meet to discuss (and solve) challenging problems facing the field: \begin{tabular}{lp{17cm}} W1:&Young Researchers Workshop (Organizers: D.R.Dechow, D.Foetsch, S.Kiebusch, S.Perugini, M.J.Rutherford and D.Shestakov)\\ W2:&Second MetaOCaml Workshop (Organizers: K.Swadi and W.Taha)\\ W3:&Graph and Model Transformations (Organizers: G.Karsai and G.Taentzer) \end{tabular} \end{document}
