[TYPES/announce] GTTSE 2007 --- First call for participation (02-07 July 2007)

[Joost Visser]

   GTTSE 2007, 02-07 July, 2007, Braga, Portugal

   2nd International Summer School on
   Generative and Transformational Techniques in Software Engineering

   http://www.di.uminho.pt/GTTSE2007


SCOPE AND FORMAT

The summer school brings together PhD students, lecturers, technology
presenters, as well as other researchers and practitioners who are
interested in the generation and the transformation of programs, data,
models, meta-models, and documentation. This concerns many areas of
software engineering: software reverse and re-engineering, model-driven
approaches, automated software engineering, generic language technology,
to name a few. These areas differ with regard to the specific sorts of
meta-models (or grammars, schemas, formats etc.) that underlie the
involved artifacts, and with regard to the specific techniques that are
employed for the generation and the transformation of the artifacts.
The tutorials are given by renowned representatives of complementary
approaches and problem domains. Each tutorial combines foundations,
methods, examples, and tool support. The program of the summer school
also features invited technology presentations, which present setups for
generative and transformational techniques. These presentations  
complement
each other in terms of the chosen application domains, case studies, and
the underlying concepts. The program of the school also features a
participants workshop. All summer school material will be collected in
proceedings that are handed out to the participants. Formal proceedings
will be compiled after the summer school, where all contributions are
subjected to additional reviewing.

The formal proceedings of the first instance of the summer school (2005)
are published as volume 4143 in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science
series of Springer-Verlag.
