Information

The light seminar will cover research topics concerning all aspects of the implementation and understanding of object-oriented software systems, especially those built in Java or C++ on frameworks. testing task. Our focus will be on recent research papers but we also will cover journal articles of interest.

The reading list for past fall's PROLANGS reading group shows the kinds of articles we read. We especially examine papers from relevant conferences: PLDI, OOPSLA, ICSE, FSE, ISSTA, CC, Java Grande, ICSM, etc. and journals: SPE, TOSEM, TOPLAS, IEEE-TSE.

Participants in this seminar are expected to present at least one research paper during the term. We will meet once every week for approximately 90 minutes on Thursday afternoons, 1:30-3:30pm in the CoRE B conference room.

The revised list of papers from which we will select those to be covered in the lite seminar are available now. Please use the digital libraries (ACM, IEEE Computer Society) to look at them and choose one you are willing to present.

If you have any questions regarding this light seminar, please contact Prof. Ryder (ryder@cs) by email; our organizational meeting will be on Thursday, January 19, 2006 at 1:30pm.

Time: 12:30pm
Meeting location: CoRE 3rd floor (in front of the evelators)
Update: Based on the low number of emails I received, it is unlikely that we will go off-campus for lunch. We will meet at 12:30pm and decide what to do based on how many people are coming to lunch. The most likely option currently is going to the campus center.
