call for papers, previous message From: Bashar NuseibehSubject: CFP: Automated Software Engineering Journal Date: 9 Aug 1994 11:38:13 GMT AUTOMATED SOFTWARE ENGINEERING The International Journal of Automated Reasoning and Artificial Intelligence in Software Engineering Editors-in-Chief: W. Lewis Johnson, University of Southern California, USA Anthony Finkelstein, Imperial College of Science, Technology & Medicine, UK Associate Editor: Bashar Nuseibeh, Imperial College, UK Automated Software Engineering is an archival peer-reviewed journal publishing research, tutorial papers, surveys and accounts of significant industrial experience in the application of automated reasoning, knowledge representation and artificial intelligence techniques in software engineering. This includes the study of techniques for constructing, understanding, adapting, and modelling software artifacts and processes. Both automatic systems and collaborative systems are within the scope of the Journal, as are computational models of human software engineering activities. Representations and formal techniques that support or provide foundations for the automation of software engineering are covered. Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to, the application of automated reasoning, knowledge representation and artificial intelligence techniques to: specification and design representation schemes, both formal and informal; descriptions and models of the development process; tools and environments to support software development; cognition in software development, including studies of specifiers, designers and implementors, and cognitive properties of representation schemes, programming and programming languages; software development methods; analysis and validation; requirements elicitation, acquisition and formalization; system rationale; software quality and metrics; software reuse and adaptation; animation and execution of specifications and designs; domain modelling and analysis; software visualization; software object management; development of user interfaces; group and team work in software engineering; development of distributed, real-time, embedded and composite systems; systems integration; software evolution and maintenance; system testing; reverse engineering and program understanding; documentation and program explanation. Automated Software Engineering is published quarterly by Kluwer Academic Publishers, with worldwide distribution to individuals, industry and institutions. It includes reviews of books, software, conferences, and workshops.

Waters, Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories, USA Automated Software Engineering covers an area of active work and interest which is not well covered by other journals. The Journal seeks to establish a reputation of the highest quality and aims to provide rapid, informative and expert review of submissions. Automated Software Engineering supports electronic submissions of accepted papers. It does not set arbitrary restrictions on length or on style of presentation; rather, it seeks to match presentation with content. The Journal will guide and support authors during submission. Papers describing novel and experimental work are encouraged. Automated Software Engineering is also pleased to discuss with organizers of relevant conferences, symposia and workshops the publication of selected papers. The first issue is scheduled to appear in January 1994.Enquiries or submissions should be directed to Judith A. Kemp at Kluwer or one of the Editors-in-Chief.
