LASER Summer School on Software Engineering
Software engineering for concurrent and real-time systems
Elba, Italy
September 11 - 17, 2005http://se.inf.ethz.ch/laser -------------------------------------------------------------
Call for Participation
SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
Research in software engineering of concurrent and real-time systems is currently making steady progress, too much of which remains unknown to practictioners. The aim of the LASER school is to distribute the results of that research to a wider audience and in turn to foster the appearance of new ideas. The school is intended for both PhD students and for professional software engineers and managers who want to benefit from recent advances in concurrent and real-time software technology.
The LASER school is part of an effort to establish a Laboratory for Applied Software Engineering Research. As the name suggests, the focus is resolutely practical, although theory is welcome to establish solid foundations.
The LASER school brings together six of the best experts in the field. Each of them will present a series of six lectures on his or her latest research efforts. The speakers for 2005 are: Jayadev Misra (University of Texas at Austin), Laura K. Dillon (Michigan State University), Amir Pnueli (New York University and Weizmann Institute of Science), Joseph Sifakis (VERIMAG and University of Grenoble), Bertrand Meyer (ETH Zurich) and Wolfgang Pree (University of Salzburg).
The school takes place in the wonderful setting of the Island of Elba, off the coast of Tuscany, easily reachable through Pisa and Marina di Campo airports. Along with an intensive scientific program, participants will have time to enjoy the natural and cultural richness of this history-laden jewel of the Mediterranean.
LECTURES
"A process-algebra for web computing" by Jayadev Misra
"Szumo: A Compositional Contract Model for Safe Multi-threaded Applications" by Laura K. Dillon
"Temporal Verification of Reactive Programs" by Amir Pnueli
"Component-based Modeling of Real-time Systems" by Joseph Sifakis
"Object technology for concurrent and real-time programs" by Bertrand Meyer
"Transparent distribution of real-time software components based on Logical Execution Time"
by Wolgang Pree
REGISTRATION
Registration is open until May 30th. The number of participants is strictly limited to ensure quality interaction with the lecturers and the rest of the audience; all applications must be accompanied by a letter of recommendation from the applicant's supervisor or manager. A small number of scholarships are available for participants with insufficient institutional support.
