ACM First International Workshop on
Data-intensive Software Management and Mining

Co-located with CIKM 2009

November 6th, 2009
Hongkong, China

CALL FOR PAPERS

With the increasing number and size of Free/Libre and Open Source
Software projects, managing and mining large-scale software
repositories has attracted substantial interest. Software
repositories include source code version control, problem
reporting systems, and developer discussion lists. Managing and
mining these repositories has helped to understand and improve
software design, development, and maintenance. As these
repositories grow larger and more numerous, a need to use data
management and mining techniques becomes more urgent.

The goal of this one-day workshop is to convene software engineering
(SE), data mining (DM), and database (DB) communities in order to
help SE researchers learn about relevant data management and mining
techniques and to help DM/DB researchers learn about the nature of
software repositories and their relationship to software development
and maintenance.

DSMM 2009 encourages contributions describing research,
applications, and experience reports that use data managing or
mining techniques in large-scale software repositories. Developing
new data management and mining algorithms, or customizing existing
algorithms for large-scale software repositories are also
encouraged. The primary research topics include, but are not limited
to:

- Software indexing and search techniques.
- Software pattern mining and management techniques
- Management/mining of large-scale multi-version source code corpus
- Case studies of management/mining of large-scale software

SUBMISSIONS

For presentation at the workshop, we will solicit two kinds of
submissions:

* Research papers (5 pages) will be expected to describe new research
results and have a higher degree of technical rigor than short papers.

* Experience papers (5 pages) should describe case studies in an
industrial setting or provide a critical discussion of experiences
gained in software development projects.

Accepted papers will be included in the ACM digital library and also be
accessible on this web-page before the workshop to facilitate
interaction and discussion between participants.
