Advances in Software Engineering: Lipari Summer School 2007, Lipari Island, Italy, July 8-21, 2007, Revised Tutorial Lectures

by Egon Börger (Editor), Antonio Cisternino (Editor)

Overview

This tutorial presents a collection of research papers on themes discussed at the Lipari Summer School on Advances in Software Engineering, held on Lipari Island, Italy, in July 2007. It was the 19th in a well-known series of annual international schools, addressed at computer science researchers. The courses dealt with domain and requirements engineering, high-level modelling, software product line techniques, evolvable software, the evolution of service-oriented software architectures, Web services, and security in such evolving distributed systems.

The nine revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected by 21 reviewers. The papers are organized in topical sections on foundations and methodology, service oriented architecture and web services, software technology, and security. This book is written with the intent to produce a state-of-the-art compendium of recent advances in software engineering.

Editorial Reviews

From the reviews:

"This book is a compendium of nine refereed and revised papers, presented at the ‘Advances in Software Engineering’ Lipari summer school, in July 2007. … The bibliographies are extensive and seemingly quite thorough, providing excellent links to relevant papers and Web sites. The papers in this compendium are a worthy contribution to the field’s body of research and literature. This is an excellent publication, and will be a fine addition to any library that deals with software engineering topics and recent, relevant research." (R. Waldo Roth, ACM Computing Reviews, April, 2009)
