CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

23rd International Conference on Automated Software Engineering (ASE 2008)
Sept. 15-19, 2008, L'Aquila, Italy
http://www.ase-conference.org
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software
Engineering brings together researchers and practitioners to share
ideas on the foundations, techniques, tools, and applications of
automated software engineering. Software engineering is concerned
with the analysis, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance of
large software systems. Automated software engineering focuses on how
to automate or partially automate these tasks to achieve significant
improvements in quality and productivity. ASE 2008 will present
contributions describing basic research, novel applications, and
experience reports.
