SusWeb 2016
First International Workshop on Sustainable Web Architectures

Call for Papers
===============
More and more organizations are switching to Web-based IT landscapes.
Taking this path yields some problems for building sustainable systems
or systems of systems. Beside performance and stability issues the
sustainability of systems, meaning maintainable – and even more –
evolvable architectures, is currently the biggest challenge. This leads
to many different emerging approaches in Web Engineering to tackle these
problems. These approaches cover machine-to-machine integration, Web
frontends targeting human users and every combination of these both.

This workshop brings together researchers and architects from industry
to start discussions of these topics.

We are aiming at case studies and war stories from industry as well as
on-going research on these topics, including but not limited to:

- Different architectural approaches, like REST, ROCA, Single Page
Applications, Web Components, Server-side Component Frameworks,
Self-contained Systems, and Microservices
- Their impact on Software and System Architectures focusing on
different kinds of -ilities (scalability, evolvability, maintainability,
reliability, resilience, transactionality ...)
- Their impact on (mobile) clients, regarding performance, power
consumption, usability, and required bandwidth
- Influence of Service Evolution Strategies – including Contract/API
design, evolution and management – on Architectural Decisions

The full-day workshop will consist of two parts: the morning features
the accepted presentations on different approaches and experiences; the
afternoon will start with an invited keynote and afterwards be organized
as Open Space. The topics for the second part will be identified from
the discussions and questions raised in the presentations. The second
part shall help to improve the communication between industry and
research to identify and summarize the challenges and possible solutions
in this field and hopefully initiate cooperation. We will end the day
with the presentation of the Open Space's results.

For this workshop we invite the submission of:
- Full Papers (maximum length 12 pages LNCS) containing original
research or experience reports
- Short Papers (maximum length 4 pages LNCS) containing ideas or short
validated challenge descriptions

The workshop accepts 6 papers. Presentations will be 25 minutes + 5
minutes discussion each.

If your submission focuses on industry experience or real-world results
more than being about ongoing/completed research or evaluation, consider
the ICWE track on Web Engineering in Practice.
