CASCON 2013 is the 23rd annual international conference hosted by the Centre for Advanced Studies Research, IBM Canada Software Laboratory. Using the motto, “Innovation that matters”, this conference provides an exciting forum for exchanging ideas and experience in the ever-expanding and critical fields of software engineering and computing. The theme of this year, "Ecosystems of Engagement", highlights the confluence of software platforms and technologies that are transforming our lives every day.

The CASCON 2013 program will include keynote presentations, technical papers, position papers, workshops, and a technology showcase. The technical papers program will feature both experience reports and original research papers in the general area of software technology and applications, but particularly addressing this year's theme. The technology showcase will feature poster presentations and demonstrations of research in progress. As such, CASCON 2013 will be an excellent venue for presenting original work, exchanging new ideas, sharing results and experiences, as well as for networking with over 1300 researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and government.

Theme
"Ecosystem of Engagement"
The Confluence of Mobile, Social Computing, Cloud, Big Data and Analytics

Emerging technologies such as mobile, social computing, cloud, big data and analytics start to bring fundamental transformations in the IT industry. The time has come that consuming these technologies together can bring about revolutionary shifts much bigger than each of the technology by itself. The confluence of all of these technologies to purposefully interact, integrate and inter operate with each other, together, may birth novel and high business value capabilities, services and solutions, This creates exciting opportunities for the advancement of science and technologies as well as opportunities for new software product offerings like never before.

Best Paper Awards
Two paper awards - for Best Paper and Best Student Paper - will be presented to recognize the best technical contributions of the event in terms of originality, clarity and potential impact. To be eligible for the "Best Student Paper" award, a paper must have been primarily authored by a student and the work that the paper reports must have been undertaken by the student authors. Only the student author(s) of the Best Student Paper award receives a prize. The recipients must have been students at the time the work was undertaken.
