4TH WORKSHOP ON FORMAL METHODS AND ANALYSIS IN SOFTWARE PRODUCT LINE
ENGINEERING (FMSPLE 2013)
Call for Papers
August 27, 2013
Tokyo, Japan
Co-located with SPLC 2013
(<http://www.splc2013.net/>http://www.splc2013.net/)
http://people.cs.kuleuven.be/dave.clarke/FMSPLE2013.html
* BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Software product line engineering (SPLE) aims at developing a family of
systems by reuse in order to reduce time to market and to increase product
quality.
The objective of the workshop “Formal Methods and Analysis in Software
Product Line Engineering (FMSPLE)” is to bring together researchers and
practitioners from the SPLE community with researchers and practitioners
working in the area of formal methods and analysis. So far, both communities
are only loosely connected, despite very promising initial work on formal
analysis techniques for software product lines. The workshop aims at
reviewing the state of the art and the state of the practice in which formal
methods and analysis approaches are currently applied in SPLE. This leads to
a discussion of a research agenda for the extension of existing formal
approaches and the development of new formal techniques for dealing with
the particular needs of SPLE. To achieve the above objectives, the workshop
is intended as a highly interactive event
fostering discussion and initiating
collaborations between the participants from both communities.
* TOPICS
The proposed workshop focuses on the application of formal methods and
analysis approaches in all phases of SPLE, including domain and application
engineering, in order to ensure the correctness of individual artifacts as
well as the consistency among them. The topics of interest include, but are
not limited to:
- Analysis approaches and formal methods for:
- domain analysis and scoping
- variability modeling
- specification and verification of functional and non-functional
properties in SPLE
- safety and security aspects in SPLE
- product line architectures and component-based product line
development
- product line implementation, such as type systems,
programming languages,
formal semantics
- formal verification of product lines and product line artifacts
- correctness-by-construction techniques in SPLE
- automated test case generation and model-based testing in SPLE
- product derivation and application engineering
- product line life-cycle management (e.g., consistency assurance)
- reuse and evolution of SPLs
- Proofs of concept, industrial experiences and empirical evaluations
- Tool presentations
- Vision and position papers on formal methods and analyses applied to SPLE
* SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION
The contributed papers are expected to comprise research papers containing
novel and previously unpublished results, experience reports, reports of
industrial case studies, tool descriptions, and short papers describing
work in progress or exploratory ideas. All papers have to follow the ACM
two-column conference proceedings format
(Letter) and be 4–8 pages of length.

The workshop will serve as a forum for presenting original research
results that are relevant to the analysis of resource (time, space,
and others) consumption by computer programs. The workshop aims to
bring together the researchers that work on foundational issues with
the researchers that focus more on practical results. Therefore, both
theoretical and practical contributions are encouraged. We also
encourage papers that combine theory and practice. The following list
of topics is non-exhaustive:
- resource static analysis for embedded or/and critical systems;
- logical and machine-independent characterisations of complexity classes;
- logics closely related to complexity classes;
- type systems for controlling/inferring/checking complexity;
- semantic methods to analyse resources, including quasi-interpretations;
- practical applications of resource analysis;
- complexity analysis by term and graph rewriting.
* SUBMISSIONS
FOPARA 2013 is a two-phase workshop. All participants are invited to submit
a draft paper describing the work to be presented at the workshop. These
submissions will be screened by the program committee chair to make sure
they are within the scope of FOPARA and will appear in the draft proceedings
distributed at the workshop. Submissions appearing in the draft proceedings
are not peer-reviewed publications. After the workshop, authors will be
given the opportunity to incorporate the feedback from discussions at the
workshop and will be invited to submit a revised full article for the formal
review process. These revised submissions will be reviewed by the program
committee using prevailing academic standards to select the best articles
that will appear in the formal proceedings. All contributions must be
written in English, conform to the Springer LNCS series format and not
exceed 16 pages. The papers selected after the reviewing process will be
published as a volume of the Springer LNCS series (Springer’s approval
is pending).

Cross-disciplinary and innovative topics are particularly encouraged.
Each course and workshop will consist of five 90 minute sessions,
offered daily (Monday-Friday) in a single week. Proposals for two-week
courses should be structured and submitted as two independent one-week
courses, e.g. as an introductory course followed by an advanced one.
In such cases, the ESSLLI program committee reserves the right to accept
just one of the two proposals.
All instructional and organizational work at ESSLLI is performed
completely on a voluntary basis, so as to keep participation fees to a
minimum. However, organizers and instructors have their registration
fees waved, and are reimbursed for travel and accommodation expenses
up to a level to be determined and communicated with the proposal
notification. ESSLLI can only guarantee reimbursement for at most one
course/workshop organizer, and can not guarantee full reimbursement of
travel costs for lecturers or organizers from outside of Europe. The
ESSLLI organizers would appreciate any help in controlling the
