Goals of the workshop
=====================

Software Reengineering comprises all activities that aim at examination and alteration of a software system to reconstitute it in a new form.

The main goal of the Workshop Software Reengineering (WSR) is to bring together different working groups from academia and industry that work in the fields of software reengineering and maintenance.

Everyone working in this field is invited to present his/her current activities or results. Practitioners' experience reports are as welcome as scientific projects and results.

Possible topics include (but are not limited to):

  Methods and process models
    * Methods and models for software reengineering
    * Process models for software renovation, migration, and maintenance
    * Embedding reengineering activities into software development

  Reengineering tools
    * Tools for program comprehension, redocumentation, software visualization, static and dynamic program analysis, software test, software maintenance, program transformation
    * Interoperability between software reengineering and development tools

  Software migration
    * Migration strategies and transformation approaches
    * Migration to service-oriented architectures (SOA)
    * Migration to product line architectures

  Architecture reengineering
    * Architecture reconstruction, assessment, migration

  Software quality
    * Approaches for assessing software quality
    * Improving software quality by reengineering

  Economical aspects of reengineering
    * Organizational aspects of reengineering projects
    * Cost-effectiveness analysis of reengineering
    * Quality monitoring of reengineering actions
    * Effort estimation for reengineering projects

  Experience reports
    * Experience reports about maintenance activities, migration and reengineering projects
