HICSS Minitrack in Software Architecture

This mini-track will explore the key technical, social, and business aspects of software architectures, both in research and in practice. In particular, we are soliciting papers that consider:

• architecture design environments
• architecture evaluation
• architecture description languages (ADLs)
• specification of architectures
• reverse engineering of architectures
• architecture visualization
• product line architectures
• architecture-based development
• business models for the use of architectures
• metrics for architecture
• the relationship to quality attributes
• architecture and software process improvement

These topics address the complete place of software architecture within the software life cycle: how they affect an organization in terms of its effect on a business and the internal structure of the business, how architecture can be specified, designed, built, evaluated, understood, and tested for conformance, and how architectures affect the achievement of quality goals.

If you would like to contribute a paper to the minitrack, please note the following deadlines:

A 300-word abstract by March 16, 1998
Feedback to author on abstract by April 15, 1998
Eight copies of the manuscript by June 1, 1998
Notification of accepted papers by August 31, 1998
Camera-ready copies of accepted manuscripts are due by October 1, 1998

All submissions should be sent to the minitrack coordinator:
