June 22-24, 2011

The Spring CSER Meeting will be co-located and held on June 25, 2011.

OVERVIEW

The Comprehension (ICPC) is the principal venue for works in the area of program comprehension, which encompasses both the human activity of comprehending software and the technologies for supporting the program comprehension. ICPC 2011 promises to provide a quality forum for researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and government to present and to discuss state-of-the-art results and best practices in the field of program comprehension.

We are soliciting full research papers (10 pages), short research papers (4 pages), posters and tool demonstrations (2 pages), industrial submissions (4 pages) and proposals for working sessions. This year, we will be holding a Student Research Symposium.

Selected best papers from the conference will be invited to submit revised, extended versions to a special section of the journal,

Information and Software Technology.

TOPICS

* Cognitive theories for program comprehension, including experiments

and case studies

* Individual, team, collaborative, distributed, and adversarial

program comprehension

* Comprehension of specific types of software systems, such as web-based

systems, open source, mash-ups, legacy systems,?product lines, and

systems of systems

* Comprehension in the context of diverse software process models and

specific lifecycle activities, such as: maintenance,?reengineering, migration, security, auditing, and testing

* Novel interfaces to support program comprehension, including searching, browsing and visualization

* Empirical evaluations of program comprehension tools, techniques, and approaches

* Comprehension and legal issues, such as due diligence, intellectual property, reverse engineering, and litigation

* Issues and case studies in the transfer of program comprehension technology to industry

* Tool support for program comprehension

* Transfer of new technology into industrial practice
