28th International Conference on Engineering of Complex Computer Systems (ICECCS 2024): First Call for Papers
by Announce 25 Sep '23

25 Sep '23

*** First Call for Papers *** 28th International Conference on Engineering of Complex Computer Systems (ICECCS 2024) June 19-21, 2024, 5* St. Raphael Resort and Marina, Limassol, Cyprus https://cyprusconferences.org/iceccs2024/ (*** Submission Deadline: December 8, 2023 AoE ***) Recent years have witnessed a rapidly rising emphasis on the design, implementation and management of complex computer systems which are present in every aspect of human activities, such as manufacturing, communications, defence, transportation, aerospace, hazardous environments, energy, and healthcare. These complex systems are frequently distributed over heterogeneous networks and process a large amount of data, leveraging emerging artificial intelligence (AI), large language models, and machine learning techniques. Complexity arises from many factors, including the dynamic environment and the scenarios these systems operate in, demanding and sometimes conflicting requirements in functionality, efficiency, scalability, security, dependability and adaptability, data heterogeneity, as well as the wide range of development methodologies, programming languages and implementation details. Performance, real-time behaviour, fault tolerance, robustness, security, adaptability, development time and cost, and long life concerns are some of the key issues arising in the development of such systems. The International Conference on Engineering of Complex Computer Systems (ICECCS) is a well-established event that has been held around the world for over 25 years. The goal of this conference is to bring together industrial, academic, and government experts from a variety of application domains and software disciplines, to discuss how the disciplines’ problems and solution techniques interact within the whole system. Researchers, practitioners, tool developers and users, and technology transfer experts are all welcome. The scope of the conference includes long-term research issues, near-term requirements and challenges, established complex systems, emerging promising tools, and retrospective and prospective reflections of research and development into complex systems. LIST OF TOPICS Authors are invited to submit papers describing original, unpublished research results, case studies and tools. Papers are solicited in all areas related to complex computer-based systems, including the causes of complexity and means of avoiding, controlling, or coping with complexity. Topic areas include, but are not limited to: Requirements, modeling and formal methods • Requirements analysis and specification • Model-driven development • Model checking • SAT/SMT solvers for software analysis and testing AI, Complex intelligent models and complex systems • Big data management • Data-drive and AI-backed systems • Machine learning for Software Engineering • AI4SE and SE4AI • Adaptive, self-managing and multi-agent systems Security, reliability and dependability • Safety-critical and fault-tolerant architectures • Formal methods • Security and privacy of complex systems • Privacy-preserving AI • Fairness Software engineering • Verification and validation • Reverse engineering and refactoring • Software architecture • Human Machine Interaction • Agile methods Realistic complex systems • Ubiquitous computing, context awareness, sensor networks • Cyber-physical systems and Internet of Things (IoT) • Autonomous systems and self-healing systems • Industrial case studies Different kinds of contributions are sought, including novel research, lessons learned, experience reports, and discussions of practical problems faced by industry and user domains. The ultimate goal is to build a rich and comprehensive conference program that can fit the interests and needs of different classes of attendees: professionals, researchers, managers, and students. A program goal is to organize several sessions that include both academic and industrial papers on a given topic and culminate panels to discuss relationships between industrial and academic research. SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION Full papers are divided into two categories: Technical Papers and Experience Reports. The papers submitted to both categories will be reviewed by the program committee members, and papers accepted in either category will be published in the conference proceedings. Technical papers should describe original research, and experience reports should present practical projects carried out in the industry, and reflect on the lessons learnt from them. Short paper submissions describe early-stage, ongoing or PhD research. All short papers will be reviewed by the program committee members, and accepted short papers will be published in the conference proceedings. Submissions to the conference must not have been published or be concurrently considered for publication elsewhere. All submissions will be judged on the basis of originality, contribution to the field, technical and presentation quality, and relevance to the conference. The proceedings have been published by the Conference Publishing Services (CPS) of the IEEE Computer Society. Submitted manuscripts should be in English and formatted in the style of the double-column IEEE CPS format. Full papers should not exceed 9 pages + 1 page for bibliography, and short papers should not exceed 5 pages + 1 page for bibliography, including figures, references, and appendices. All submissions should be in PDF format. Submissions not adhering to the specified format and length may be rejected immediately without review.

Post-Doc Position in Quantitative Typology in Paris
by Sylvain Loiseau 20 Sep '23

20 Sep '23

The Autogramm research project https://autogramm.github.io/ is excited to announce an open position for a postdoctoral researcher in the field of Quantitative Linguistic Typology. This one-year contract comes with the potential for an additional year upon review. Funded by the ANR (the French National Research Agency), Autogramm focuses on exploring the power of dependency-annotated treebanks to elucidate the structures of under-represented and typologically diverse languages. Our project also explores the extraction of typological generalizations from treebanks using token-based (Levshina 2019) or typometric (Gerdes, Kahane, and Chen 2021) approaches. The appointed postdoctoral researcher will be affiliated with the Lacito Laboratory (Paris/Villejuif) and Lisn Laboratory (Université Paris-Saclay). The researcher will have the opportunity to develop a research project revolving around the creation of a typological database. This database will integrate data from treebanks (based on the Universal Dependency project) and Interlinear Glossed Text (IGT) of various languages. Our aim is to capture the full spectrum of linguistic diversity and generate nuanced, quantitative typological generalizations based on annotated structures, which could eventually lead to automated comparative grammars. Ideal candidates will possess a strong background in language typology and linguistic theory, along with a proven track record in corpus creation and quantitative corpus analysis. The postdoctoral position is set to commence between October 2023 and, at the latest, January 1st 2024 and will continue for two years. To apply, please compile your application into a single PDF file and email it at your earliest convenience to Sylvain Kahane (sylvain(a)kahane.fr) Kim Gerdes (gerdes(a)lisn.fr) and Sylvain Loiseau (sylvain.loiseau(a)univ-paris13.fr). We look forward to receiving your applications. ----- Sylvain Loiseau sylvain.loiseau(a)univ-paris13.fr Université Sorbonne Paris Nord 99 avenue Jean-Baptiste Clément F-93430 Villetaneuse Laboratoire « Langues et civilisations à tradition orale » (UMR 7107 CNRS) Campus CNRS 7, rue Guy Môquet (bât.
