ICSE SAM Workshop: Saturday, May 10 2008, The Westin Hotel SAM Program is now
available online here ICSE SAM organisers would like to thank our International Program
Committee and ICSE SAM authors for their valuable contribution to the SAM
program. We look forward to meet you at ICSE 2008 and
"I praise my Welcome to the ICSE
International Workshop on Software Architectures and Mobility (SAM 2008). The theme of
this year ICSE is Driving World Business,
acknowledging the crucial role the engineering of software plays in a variety
of sectors, from business to health care, from telecommunications to embedded
systems. Mobility stands out as an orthogonal dimension to most of these
application domains: consider, for example, the outburst of m-commerce
applications, or the use of pervasive computing technologies to deliver
healthcare services in the future. E-businesses
are increasingly facing the need of porting the provision of their e-services
to mobile customers. Evolving requirements, such as reliability, security,
scalability, performance and privacy, from fixed to mobile settings, has
revealed new and important challenges. This is due to the behavioral
constraints that mobility poses, and that were not faced in traditional
distributed settings. Examples include: dynamic network topology, changes in
location, constrained resource availability, communication protocols
heterogeneity, unstable connectivity, and so forth. Industrial practice is
demonstrating that such transition is not straightforward and tends to be
costly. In particular, the evolution may break the architecture of the
software system, thus calling for substantial and expensive changes. Even
when the system is (re)built from scratch, it is unclear if and how the
state-of-the-art in software architectures relate to the requirements and
concerns brought forward by mobile software systems. Likewise, there is still
a lack of systematic software engineering methods and techniques which
can assist in developing and evolving mobile software systems.
The goal of this workshop is to address these gaps by strengthening the
cross-fertilization of advances from requirements and domain engineering,
software architectures, and middleware to systematically develop and evolve
architectures supporting mobility. |
