CALL FOR PAPERS

Second International Workshop on Requirements Engineering
Visualization (REV'07)

http://csis.pace.edu/~ogotel/professional/REV07.html

With the increasing complexity of software requirements, problems of
traditional requirements engineering techniques, including the use
of unstructured text and lists, are becoming increasingly apparent.
This workshop aims to provide a collaborative session in which ideas
related to visualization of requirements and ways of making them
practical are shared, reviewed and debated. The workshop will be
used to identify future work, issues, problems and priorities, and
to propose recommendations around these dimensions for requirements
visualization research.


TOPICS

Topics of interest include experience papers, formal methods,
emerging technologies, best practices, research proposals,
evaluations and comparisons that focus on visualization techniques
for requirements engineering activities. Typical topics of interest
include, but are certainly not limited to:

-- Visualization languages/techniques for requirements
elicitation/analysis/ specification

-- Visualization languages/techniques for formal
verification/validation of requirements

-- Visualization languages/techniques to facilitate the
management/evolution of requirements

-- Visualization support for existing requirements engineering
techniques

-- Heuristics and metrics for visualization techniques

This workshop will be held in conjunction with The 15th IEEE
International Requirements Engineering Conference (RE'07), October
15-19th, 2007, New Delhi, India. A preliminary workshop date has
been set for Monday 15th October, 2007.


SUBMISSIONS

Prospective authors are encouraged to submit a PDF version of their
paper by email to ogotel@.... Position papers should not exceed
5 pages. Full papers should not exceed 10 pages. Papers should be in
IEEE/CS proceedings format (guidelines available from the IEEE
website) and include an abstract of up to 150 words.
