Call for Participation -- SOFTVIS '05
ACM Symposium on Software Visualization
St. Louis, Missouri, USA
14 - 15 May, 2005
------------------------------------------------------------------
Software visualization encompasses the development and evaluation of
methods for graphically representing different aspects of software,
including its structure, its abstract and concrete execution, and its
evolution. The goal of this symposium is to provide a forum for
researchers from different backgrounds (HCI, software engineering,
programming languages, visualization, computer science education) to
discuss and present original research on software visualization.
SoftVis '05 is the second meeting in a planned series of biennial
conferences. Our objective is to continue to make the SoftVis series the
premier venue for presenting all types of research on software
visualization.
Papers
We seek theoretical as well as practical papers on applications,
techniques, tools and case studies. Topics of interest include,
but are not restricted to, the following:
Visualization of algorithms, including numerical, geometric,
genetic, distributed and graph algorithms
Visualization in software engineering, e.g. UML diagrams
Visualization-based software in computer science and software
engineering education
Integration of software visualization tools and development
environments
Program visualization
Protocol and log visualization (security, trust)
Visualization of parallel programs
Visualization of the software development process
Visualization of data and processes in applications
Graph drawing algorithms for software visualization
Visualization of data base schemes
Visual debugging
3D software visualization
Software visualization on the internet
Program analyses and visualization
Empirical evaluation of software visualization system
effectiveness
Visualization of Web Services
Visualization of workflow and business processes
Papers should represent original, unpublished results and will be
rigorously reviewed by the international Program Committee. Papers must
be in standard ACM 2-column format and cannot exceed 10 pages in total
length. Authors should prepare and electronically submit a PDF version
of their paper. Videos not exceeding 5 minutes in length can accompany a
paper submission. Papers are due December 1, 2004. Further details on
precise submission guidelines are available on the conference Web page
at http://www.softvis.org/softvis05.
