Conference name: 2nd International Workshop on Software Knowledge - SKY 2011


Venue: Paris, France


Event Date:26-29 October, 2011 


Chair

Salvatore Flavio Pileggi
Universidad Politécnica de Valencia

Scope and Topics

SKY - a shorthand for "Software Knowledge" - is meant to indicate that software in its higher levels of abstraction is a new kind of knowledge. This is quite intuitive when one thinks that a UML diagram of a software package, with its classes and relations, can be easily viewed as the set of classes and relations of a knowledge ontology, or represented by Description Logics. What is much less trivial is that this new kind of knowledge is Runnable knowledge. Software Knowledge is a runnable expression of meaning.

For further details, see also the SoftwareKnowledge.org website.

The main theme of the SKY2011 Workshop is Discovery and Representation of Runnable Knowledge of desired types. We mean discovery in software data repository of any size, up to the whole Web. Representation is essential to facilitate discovery and to preserve its results. The Workshop main objective is to rigorously close the gap between the high-level abstractions found in software modeling languages and widely accepted knowledge representation techniques. This might probably be done in two complementary directions:

Software-Knowledge Hierarchy and Operations

    * Software-Knowledge Selectivity and Traceability
    * Software-Knowledge Sharing: Meta-models, Interchange Formats, and Tools
    * At last KDA (Knowledge Driven Architecture)

Software-Knowledge Representation and Semantics

    * Software-Knowledge Representation and Modeling
    * Semantic Software Representations (SKOS, Ontologies, and more)
    * Semantics above and beyond Design Patterns
    * Runnable and Testable Knowledge Representations

Software-Knowledge Discovery and Time-dependence

    * Software-Knowledge Mining and Harvesting
    * Software Mining Strategies based upon Knowledge Evolution
    * Web Dynamics and Interestingness
    * Software-Knowledge Decay and Entropy Increase
    * Search assisted Discovery of Suitable Components/Models/Code for Reuse
    * Discovery based Software Engineering
