CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
12th IEEE International Requirements Engineering Conference (RE'04)
6th-10th September 2004, Kyoto, Japan
http://www.re04.org
"Requirements for Innovation in a Changing World"
Requirements Engineering (RE) is the branch of systems engineering concerned with the goals, desired properties and constraints of complex systems, ranging from embedded software systems and software-based products to large enterprise and socio-technical systems that involve software systems, organisations and people. It covers all activities related to the acquisition, specification and maintenance of requirements throughout the life cycle. It also covers how requirements relate to business processes, work redesign, system and software architecture, and testing.
RE'04's theme - requirements for innovation in a changing world - is reflected in a program that includes:
KEYNOTE SPEAKERS Professor Nigel Cross, Open University, UK How Creative Design Happens
Professor Axel van Lamsweerde, Universite de Louvain, Belgium Goal-Oriented Requirements Engineering: A Roundtrip from Research to Practice
Ikuo Minakata, Matsushita (Panasonic) Electric Co., Ltd Requirements for Ubiquitous/Embedded Products, - Digital TV, Mobile Phones and Consumer Products
A FULL TECHNICAL AND INDUSTRIAL PROGRAM Attend 9 sessions from our technical research program of 27 papers selected from almost 100 high-calibre submissions. Session themes include aspect-oriented requirements engineering, requirements engineering for COTS-based systems, visualising and animating requirements and goals, use cases in the requirements process, improving requirements process, managing requirements change and traceability, organisational and socio-technical systems, handling non-functional requirements, and transforming requirements. There will also be a program of 10 reports on industrial experiences with requirements processes, techniques and tools.
STATE-OF-THE-PRACTICE TALKS All delegates will have access to 8 presentations from leading experts in requirements engineering on topics that matter to you and your organisations. Topics include use cases, the RUP and future RE directions.
16 WORKSHOPS AND TUTORIALS Nine tutorials and seven workshops will take place on the first 2 days. Tutorial topics include requirements-based product line engineering and development, requirements to bridge between business and development, requirements and creativity, software traceability, practical use of scenarios, and financially-informed requirements prioritisation. Two more tutorials, on scenario analysis and traceability, will be held in Japanese. The seven workshops also cover a range of topics including requirements for COTS-based systems, requirements for service-oriented systems, requirements for high assurance systems, patterns in requirements engineering, and evaluating our requirements research. The automotive requirements engineering workshop will take place in Nagoya, and the International Workshop on Software Evolution will be co-located in Kyoto!
PANELS, INVITED TALKS AND EXHIBITION In addition RE'04 will offer three exciting panels - on software engineering trends in Japan, what theories do we have in requirements engineering, and educating requirements engineers - and invited talks on related themes. RE'04 will also have a major vendor and publisher exhibition.
ABOUT KYOTO AND RE'04 Kyoto is in central Japan, easily reachable by train from major international airports. It is one of Japan's most beautiful cities, and the conference location is only 10 minutes walk from 2 of the world heritage sites shown above. Kyoto and RE'04 also very affordable. Conference fees for early registration will be only $400 USD, whilst some recommended hotels are downtown Kyoto will cost less than $100 USD per night - comparable with European and North American locations. There is no excuse not to attend RE in its most beautiful location yet in 2004! For more information contact us at info@re04.org.
