=3D=3D=3D THEME AND GOALS =3D=3D=3D
The goal of software engineering is to achieve high-quality software
in a cost-effective, timely, and reproducible manner. Advances in
technology are enabling reductions in cost and schedule, but their effect
on software quality assurance often remains unknown. Object-oriented
concepts, component technology, components off the shelf (COTS) and
open source software can dramatically reduce development time; however,
assuring the quality of systems using these concepts is problematic.
The task of measuring and assuring the quality of software systems is
getting harder with the advent of new software development processes.
As an example, agile methods explicitly allow customers to change
requirements very late in the project. Agile methods also take a "light
weight" approach to project documentation and software testing. Reducing
process overhead can improve response to change and speed product
delivery, but may also adversely affect the project's risk profile. Little
data exists on the quality of industrial systems developed using Agile
methods.
The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers, engineers,
and practitioners to discuss and evaluate the latest challenges and
breakthroughs in the field of software quality assurance and to identify
future trends and problems in this area.
