*Objectives and scope*
Now in its 20th edition, TASE is an international symposium
that aims to bring together researchers and developers from
academia and industry with interests in the theoretical aspects
of software engineering. We invite submissions of research
papers on topics covering all theoretical aspects of software
engineering, including, but not limited to, the following:
Abstract interpretation · Algebraic and co-algebraic
specifications · Component-based software engineering ·
Cyber-physical systems · Deductive verification · Distributed
and concurrent systems · Domain Engineering · Embedded and
real-time systems · Feature-oriented software · Formal
verification and program semantics · Integration of formal
methods · Language design · Model checking and theorem proving ·
Model-driven engineering · Object-oriented systems · Probability
in software engineering · Program analysis · Program logics and
calculi · Requirements engineering · Reverse engineering and
software maintenance · Run-time verification and monitoring ·
Semantic web and web services · Service-oriented and cloud
computing · Software processes and workflows · Software
architectures and design · Software testing and quality
assurance · Software safety, security, and reliability ·
Specification and verification · Type systems and behavioural
typing · Tools exploiting theoretical results
*Submission*
Submissions to the conference must not have been published
or be concurrently considered for publication elsewhere. Papers
should be written in English and should not exceed 16 pages
(excluding the bibliography) in LNCS format.
