Call For Papers

A single sheet CFP is available in PDF.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners working on theory, techniques and applications which concern analysis and/or manipulation of the source code of computer systems. While much attention in the wider software engineering community is properly directed towards other aspects of systems development and evolution, such as specification, design and requirements engineering, it is the source code that contains the only precise description of the behaviour of the system. The analysis and manipulation of source code thus remains a pressing concern.

Papers should describe original and significant work in the field of source code analysis and manipulation. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• program transformation
• abstract interpretation
• program slicing
• source level software metrics
• decompilation
• source level testing and verification
• source level optimization
• program comprehension

Papers should not be longer than 10 pages in IEEE Computer Society Press Proceedings Author Guidelines. Papers should be submitted electronically. This year’s SCAM also foresees the submission of tool demonstration proposals (1 page). Authors are expected to perform live demonstrations at the workshop.

All papers accepted for inclusion in the workshop will appear in the proceedings which will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press. As for past editions authors of selected papers will be invited to submit extended version of their papers for a journal special issue. Details will be announced shortly.
