The conference will take place at Porto University.  The second-largest city in Portugal was nominated European City of Culture for 2001 and the historical centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Founded by the Romans at the mouth of the River Douro, modern Porto (Oporto) is an industrial city with a wonderful atmosphere and plenty to see.

THE CONFERENCE PROGRAMME and LOCAL INFORMATION

Registration             Venue & Accomodation

Component-based software engineering (CBSE) is a development paradigm that promises to accelerate software development and to reduce costs by assembling systems from prefabricated software components. Designing, developing and maintaining components and component-based applications for reuse is, however, a very complex process, which places high requirements not only for the component functional and non-functional properties, but also for the development organization. CBSE covers many software engineering disciplines and different techniques. Many of them have been developed and successfully implemented. CBSE has been successful in certain engineering domains, such as office applications and distributed internet-based applications but it is still in the early stage of utilization in many other domains, in particular those which have specific requirements on different quality attributes.

The CBSE track, fifth in a row, has a goal to point out the overall challenges and problems of the component-based approach, but also show the new ideas, solutions and practices. The aim of the track is to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to improve the theories, technologies, and processes in component-based software development. We encourage submissions of both theoretical nature and experience reports from academia and especially from industry. Suggested areas of interest include, but are not restricted to:
