TOPICS OF INTEREST
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Brazilian Workshop on Modern Software Maintenance
is a forum dedicated to discuss alternatives to perform software
maintenance and software reengineering, in a way that the
maintenance process and the final product can be in conformance
with software quality requirements. The topics of interest
include, being not limited to, are:
- Modern maintenance processes
- Metrics and maintenance quality
- Maintenance of non-traditional systems (web applications,
component-based systems, aspect-oriented software,
model-driven, product lines, service-oriented etc.)
- Tool support and integrated environments for maintenance
- Reverse engineering
- Static and dynamic analysis
- Visualization techniques for program comprehension
- Reengineering and system migration
- Maintenance education
- Experimentation in software maintenance
- Model Driven Application and software maintenance
- Maintenance management (risks management, configuration
management, planning and estimates)
- Legacy systems tests
- Economic aspects of software maintenance (maintenance
cost, previous estimates of effort etc.)

SUBMISSION ORIENTATION
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Submissions must be written in English or Portuguese. All
submissions must follow SBC (Brazilian Computer Society)
style format (available at SBC -
http://www.sbc.org.br/index.php?language=1&subject=60&content=downloads&id=286).
All papers will be evaluated by, at least, 3 members of the
program committee. There will be three types of submissions:
- Technical papers, presenting an interesting result for the
advance of the research in the area. The judgment criteria are:
workshop scope adequacy, relevance and technical quality.
The work must be considered consistent, clear and original.
The maximum paper size is 8 pages.
- Experience reports, presenting concrete data, lessons learned
or any other fact relevant to the event. The judgment criteria
are: workshop scope adequacy, practical application, presentation
consistency, and contributions to the advance of maintenance
practice. The maximum paper size is 4 pages.
- Challenge reports, presenting real industrial problems
concerning maintenance that represent research challenges in
the area from the academic point of view. The aim is not to
describe hypothetical situations, but real challenges detected in
concrete software maintenance environments. The judgment
criteria are: workshop scope adequacy, relevance and
presentation consistency. The maximum paper size is 2 pages.
Evaluation studies are desirable, although this is not a
pre-requisite for WMSWM submission. Papers with original,
new, and promising ideas are welcome. All papers must present
comparisons with related work in the area. Technical papers
must emphasize their contribution for software maintenance
practice. Papers about practical experiments must describe the
employed method and interpretation of the obtained qualitative
and quantitative results.
All submissions must be electronically sent by JEMS system
(https://submissoes.sbc.org.br) until the submission deadline.
One of the authors must present the paper at the workshop.
Finally, authors must respect the final version submission
deadline, as well as subscription date for the workshop, in order
for the paper to be included in workshop proceedings. All
accepted papers will be available at the workshop site.
