Let me kindly inform you that the 1st International Workshop on Software Evolution and Modernization (http://www.enase.org/SEM.aspx)at 8th Conference on Evaluation of Novel Software Approaches to Software Engineering (ENASE 2013) steering committee cordially invites you to submit a paper to the SEM 2013 Workshop, to be held in ESEO, Angers Loire Valley, France. The deadline for paper submission is scheduled for April 9, 2013.

[ENASE 2013 will be held in ESEO, Angers Loire Valley, France, July 4 - 6, 2013]

Scope
=====
Legacy information systems can be a serious headache for companies because, on the one hand, these systems cannot be thrown away since they store a lot of valuable business knowledge over time, and on the other hand, they cannot be maintained easily at an acceptable cost. For many years, reengineering has been a solution to this problem because it facilitates the reuse of the software artifacts and knowledge embedded in the system. However, reengineering often fails due to the fact that it carries out non-standardized and ad hoc methods. This workshop attempts to explore and provides novel approaches in software modernization and evolution taking into account new trends in this field.



Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
=======================================
Software Evolution & Maintenance
Reverse Engineering Reengineering
Data and Process Mining
Model-Driven Engineering
Quality Assurance
Program Comprehension
Software Architecture Recovery Service
Engineering and SOA
Empirical Studies
Visualization techniques and Tools
Concept and Feature Location
Object and Aspect Identification
Program Analysis and Slicing
