RESEARCH PAPERS

Research papers should describe original and significant work in the research and practice of software reuse. Case studies, empirical research, and experiments are particularly welcome. We also welcome papers that present leading edge and novel ideas in software reuse. The proceedings of the conference will be published by Springer in its Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Submissions should conform to Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science format, and are limited to 5000 words in length, in English.

The authors of accepted papers are advised to prepare the camera ready paper following the Springer guidelines. For an accepted paper to be published in the proceedings, a Springer's Copyright form must be submitted immediately after the camera ready copy is submitted.  Please email the completed and signed Springer's Copyright forms to icsr10@sei.pku.edu.cn, or fax the forms to 86-10-62751792.

WORKSHOPS

ICSR 2008 also invites submissions of workshop proposals. The workshops co-located with the conference should provide an opportunity for exchanging views, advancing ideas, and discussing preliminary results on software reuse research and applications.
Workshop proposals should not exceed 3 pages, including one page preliminary call for papers, their relevance to the conference, expected number of presenters and participants, and a brief description of workshop organizers. Proposals for workshops can be sent to Dr. Jianjun Zhao (Email: zhao-jj@cs.sjtu.edu.cn), ICSR 2008 Workshops Chair.

TUTORIALS

Tutorials are an integral component of the ICSR conferences. They should offer participants the opportunity to explore software reuse topics in depth; to gain new insights, knowledge, and skills; and to learn from some of the leaders in the field. Proposals for tutorials are invited on any theme that is relevant to the software reuse community. However, we are particularly keen to offer tutorials aimed at disseminating the results of research and experience to practitioners. Proposals for tutorials can be sent to Dr. Jeffrey Poulin (Email: jeffrey.poulin@lmco.com), ICSR 2008 Tutorials Chair.

DOCTORAL SYMPOSIUM

The Doctoral Symposium track is for those who are currently working on or who have recently completed their PhD thesis. The track offers an opportunity to present research problems, solution directions, results obtained thus far, and research plans towards the completion of the PhD studies. The paper should be a 2 page summary of your PhD project, and can be sent to Dr. Gregory Kulczycki (Email: gregwk@vt.edu), ICSR 2008 Doctoral Symposium Chair.
