Call For Papers

Important Dates

Submission of abstracts: Monday, April 23, 2012; 23:55 Honolulu time (hard deadline)
Submission of papers: Monday, April 30, 2012; 23:55 Honolulu time (hard deadline)
Author notification: Monday, June 4, 2012

Scope

Generative and component approaches are revolutionizing software development just as automation and componentization revolutionized manufacturing. Key technologies for automating program development are Generative Programming for program synthesis, Component Engineering for modularity, and Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs) for compact problem-oriented programming notations.

The International Conference on Generative Programming and Component Engineering is a venue for researchers and practitioners interested in techniques that use program generation and component deployment to increase programmer productivity, improve software quality, and shorten the time-to-market of software products. In addition to exploring cutting-edge techniques of generative and component-based software, our goal is to foster further cross-fertilization between the software engineering and the programming languages research communities.

Submissions

Research papers

10 pages in SIGPLAN proceedings style with 10 pt. font size (sigplanconf.cls with the [10pt] option, see http://www.sigplan.org/authorInformation.htm) reporting original and unpublished results of theoretical, empirical, conceptual, or experimental research that contribute to scientific knowledge in the areas listed below (the PC chair can advise on appropriateness).

Tool demonstrations

Tool demonstrations should present tools that implement generative and component-based software engineering techniques, and are available for use. Any of the GPCE'12 topics of interest are appropriate areas for tool demonstrations. Purely commercial tool demonstrations will not be accepted. Submissions have to contain a tool description of 4 pages in SIGPLAN proceedings style with 10 pt. font size (sigplanconf.cls with the [10pt] option) and a demonstration outline including screenshots of up to 4 pages. The four page tool description will, if the demonstration is accepted, be published in the proceedings. The four page demonstration outline will only be used by the program committee for evaluating the submission.

Tech talks

Tech talks are about an hour in length and, similarly to tutorials, do not need to present original new research material. Unlike longer tutorials, these talks cannot be very interactive, and should instead aim to be 'keynote' style presentations. Please see the tech talks call for contributions for details.

Workshops

Please contact the chairs (chairs@gpce.org) if you would like to organize a workshop of interest to the GPCE audience.

Special issue: Science of Computer Programming

After the conference, the authors of distinguished papers will be invited to submit extended versions of their papers to a GPCE special issue of the journal Science of Computer Programming.

Topics

GPCE seeks contributions in software engineering and in programming languages related (but not limited) to:

Generative programming
Reuse, meta-programming, partial evaluation, multi-stage and multi-level languages, step-wise refinement, generic programming, automated code generation
Semantics, type systems, symbolic computation, linking and explicit substitution, in-lining and macros, templates, program transformation
Runtime code generation, compilation, active libraries, synthesis from specifications, development methods, generation of non-code artifacts, formal methods, reflection

Generative techniques for
Product-line architectures
Distributed, real-time and embedded systems
Model-driven development and architecture
Resource bounded/safety critical systems.

Component-based software engineering
Reuse, distributed platforms and middleware, distributed systems, evolution, patterns, development methods, deployment and configuration techniques, formal methods

Integration of generative and component-based approaches

Domain engineering and domain analysis
Domain-specific languages including visual and UML-based DSLs

Separation of concerns
Aspect-oriented and feature-oriented programming,
Intentional programming and multi-dimensional separation of concerns

Applications of the above in industrial scenarios or to real-world problems, bridging the gap between theory and practice

Empirical studies
Original work in any of the areas above where there is a substantial empirical dimension to the work being presented. Such contributions might take the form of a case/field study, comparative analysis, controlled experiment, survey or meta-analysis of previous studies.

Incremental improvements over previously published work should have been evaluated through systematic, comparative, empirical, or experimental evaluation. Submissions must adhere to SIGPLAN's republication policy (http://www.sigplan.org/republicationpolicy.htm). Please contact the program chair if you have any questions about how this policy applies to your paper (chairs@gpce.org).
