This book provides formal and informal definitions and taxonomies for self-aware computing systems, and explains how self-aware computing relates to many existing subfields of computer science, especially software engineering. It describes architectures and algorithms for self-aware systems as well as the benefits and pitfalls of self-awareness, and reviews much of the latest relevant research across a wide array of disciplines, including open research challenges. The chapters of this book are organized into five parts: Introduction, System Architectures, Methods and Algorithms, Applications and Case Studies, and Outlook. Part I offers an introduction that defines self-aware computing system...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference, ICSOC 2010, held in San Francisco, CA, USA, in December 2010. The 33 revised full papers and three full industry papers, presented together with 18 short papers, three PhD symposium posters and four regular posters, were carefully reviewed and selected from 238 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on Service and Business Process Modeling; Service Management; Quality of Service; Service Science and Design; Service Development and Run-time Management; High-level Description Languages; Service Level Agreements; Service Engineering Methodologies; Service Security, Privacy, and Trust; Business Service Modeling; Formal Methods; and Service Applications.
Since the late 1980s, the CAiSE conferences have provided a forum for the p- sentation and exchange of research results and practical experiences within the ?eld of Information Systems Engineering. CAiSE 2001 was the 13th conference in this series and was held from 4th to 8th June 2001 in the resort of Int- laken located near the three famous Swiss mountains – the Eiger, M ̈ onch, and Jungfrau. The ?rst two days consisted of pre-conference workshops and tutorials. The workshop themes included requirements engineering, evaluation of modeling methods, data integration over the Web, agent-oriented information systems, and the design and management of data warehouses. Continuing the tradition...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing, ICSOC 2012, held in Berlin, Germany, in December 2013. The 29 full papers and 27 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 205 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on service engineering, service operations and management; services in the cloud; and service applications and implementations.

Software engineering is widely recognized as one of the most exciting, stimulating, and profitable research areas, with a significant practical impact on the software industry. Thus, training future generations of software engineering researchers and bridging the gap between academia and industry are vital to the field. The International Summer School on Software Engineering (ISSSE), which started in 2003, aims to contribute both to training future researchers and to facilitating the exchange of knowledge between academia and industry. This volume consists of chapters originating from a number of tutorial lectures given in 2009, 2010, and 2011 at the International Summer School on Software E...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Fourth International Workshop on Software Engineering for Resilient Systems, SERENE 2012, held in Pisa, Italy, in September 2012. The 12 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers address all aspects of fault tolerance and exception handling, safety modeling, supporting evolution, resilience in service-oriented computing, and applying formal methods in case studies.
Static analysis of software with deductive methods is a highly dynamic field of research on the verge of becoming a mainstream technology in software engineering. It consists of a large portfolio of - mostly fully automated - analyses: formal verification, test generation, security analysis, visualization, and debugging. All of them are realized in the state-of-art deductive verification framework KeY. This book is the definitive guide to KeY that lets you explore the full potential of deductive software verification in practice. It contains the complete theory behind KeY for active researchers who want to understand it in depth or use it in their own work. But the book also features fully self-contained chapters on the Java Modeling Language and on Using KeY that require nothing else than familiarity with Java. All other chapters are accessible for graduate students (M.Sc. level and beyond). The KeY framework is free and open software, downloadable from the book companion website which contains also all code examples mentioned in this book.
