                             FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
                       Third International Conference on
           Generative Programming and Component Engineering (GPCE'04)

                         Vancouver, October 24-28, 2004
                    co-located with OOPSLA 2004 and ISMM 2004

                              http://gpce04.gpce.org
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    ------------------------------------
    Important Dates
    ------------------------------------

        * Pre-submission: March 12, 2004
        * Submission: March 19, 2004

    ------------------------------------
    Scope
    ------------------------------------

    Generative and component approaches have the potential to revolutionize
    software development in a similar way as automation and components
    revolutionized manufacturing. Generative Programming (developing
    programs that synthesize other programs), Component Engineering (raising
    the level of modularization and analysis in application design), and
    Domain-Specific Languages (elevating program specifications to compact
    domain-specific notations that are easier to write and maintain) are key
    technologies for automating program development.

    GPCE arose as a joint conference, merging the prior conference on
    Generative and Component-Based Software Engineering (GCSE) and the
    Workshop on Semantics, Applications, and Implementation of Program
    Generation (SAIG). The goal of GPCE is to provide a meeting place for
    researchers and practitioners interested in cutting edge approaches to
    software development. We aim to foster further cross-fertilization
    between the software engineering research community on the one hand, and
    the programming languages community on the other, in addition to
    supporting the original research goals of both the GCSE and the SAIG
    communities. We seek papers both in software engineering and in
    programming languages, and especially those that bridge the gap and are
    accessible to both communities at the same time.

    ------------------------------------
    Topics of Interest
    ------------------------------------

    The conference solicits submissions related (but not limited) to:

       * Generative programming
          o Reuse, meta-programming, partial evaluation, multi-stage and
            multi-level languages, step-wise refinement
          o Semantics, type systems, symbolic computation, linking and
            explicit substitution, in-lining and macros, templates,
            program transformation
          o Runtime code generation, compilation, active libraries,
            synthesis from specifications, development methods, generation
            of non-code artifacts, formal methods, reflection
       * Generative techniques for
          o Product lines and architectures
          o Embedded systems
          o Model-driven architecture
       * Component-based software engineering
          o Reuse, distributed platforms, distributed systems, evolution,
            analysis and design patterns, development methods, formal methods
       * Integration of generative and component-based approaches
       * Domain engineering and domain analysis
          o Domain-specific languages (DSLs) including visual and UML-based DSLs
       * Separation of concerns
          o Aspect-oriented programming, feature-oriented programming,
          o Intentional programming, and multi-dimensional separation of concerns
       * Industrial applications

    Reports on applications of these techniques to real-world problems are
    especially encouraged, as are submissions that relate ideas and concepts
    from several of these topics, or bridge the gap between theory and
    practice. The program committee is happy to advise on the appropriateness of a
    particular subject.

    ------------------------------------
    Paper Submission
    ------------------------------------

    Authors are invited to submit a title and abstract by March 12, 2004,
    and a full paper by March 19, 2004. These deadlines are firm.
    Simultaneous submission to other venues and submission of previously
    published material are not allowed. Electronic submission will be
    required, except by special arrangement with the program chairs. Authors
    will be notified of acceptance by May 17, 2004. Final versions of
    accepted papers must be submitted by July 25, 2004.

    Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings published in
    the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series
    http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/index.html.

    Submissions must be in PDF, must conform to the LNCS style, and be no
    longer than 15 pages. For the formatting details see
    http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html.

    ------------------------------------
    Other Contributions
    ------------------------------------

    Work related to generative programming and component engineering can also
    be presented in other forms than papers. GPCE has separate days for
    tutorials and workshops. During the conference there are sessions for tool
    demonstrations. If you want to organize a workshop, present a tutorial, or
    demonstration, see the information on the conference website for details
    about format and submission. Contact the relevant chair for more
    information.
