SOFSEM (SOFtware SEMinar) is the annual, international conference devoted to
the theory and practice of computer science. Its aim is to foster cooperation
among professionals from academia and industry working in all modern areas of
computer science.

SOFSEM 2009 Program Committee Chair: Mogens Nielsen, Aarhus, Denmark.


INVITED SPEAKERS

The invited speakers for SOFSEM will include:

  * Christian Attiogbe (University of Nantes, France)
  * Christel Baier (University of Bonn, Germany)
  * Nicole Immorlica (Northwestern University, USA)
  * Radovan Janecek (BTO, HP Software)
  * Marcin Jurdzinski (University of Warwick, UK)
  * Giuseppe Longo (Ecole Normale Superieure, Paris, France)
  * David Parkes (Harvard University, USA)


CONFERENCE TRACKS

For the SOFSEM 2009 the following 4 tracks have been chosen:

  * Foundations of Computer Science
     Chair: Catuscia Palamidessi (Paris, France)
     Co-chair: Frank Valencia (Paris, France)

  * Theory and Practice of Software Services
     Chair: Petr Tuma, Prague, Czech Republic

  * Game Theoretic Aspects of ecommerce
     Chair: Peter Bro Miltersen (Aarhus, Denmark)

  * Techniques and Tools for Formal Verification
     Chair: Antonin Kucera (Brno, Czech Republic)

Moreover, for students, there is the

  * Student Research Forum
     Chair: Maria Bielikova (Bratislava, Slovakia)

Details on each track and the Forum can be found on the conference web site.


PROCEEDINGS

Following the tradition of SOFSEM, the proceedings from SOFSEM 2009, including
invited and contributed papers, will be published in the Lecture Notes in
Computer Science Series by Springer-Verlag. Papers from the Student Research
Forum will be published in local proceedings.

Both proceedings will be distributed at the conference.


LOCATION

The venue of Sofsem 2009 will be OREA Hotel ARNIKA, Spindleruv mlyn, Czech
Republic. See www.sofsem.cz for further details.

  THEORY AND PRACTICE OF SOFTWARE SERVICES

    * software engineering of service oriented systems
    * formal methods for service oriented architectures
    * service ontologies, semantic service description
    * process modeling for service architectures
    * service orchestration and coordination
    * quality of service
    * service negotiation and SLA
    * service discovery and management
    * support for dynamic binding of services
    * platform specific services (web services, ESB, GRID, MANET, etc.)
    * middleware for service oriented architectures
    * security and trust issues in services
    * business models for service architectures
    * emerging service standards (W3C, OASIS, UN/CEFACT, etc.)
    * experience reports

  GAME THEORETIC ASPECTS OF E-COMMERCE

    * automated and algorithmic mechanism design,

  TECHNIQUES AND TOOLS FOR FORMAL VERIFICATION

   * formal models (process calculi, Petri nets, timed automata,
     message sequence charts, hybrid systems, domain theoretic models,
     probabilistic systems, etc.)
   * specification languages (temporal logics, semantic equivalences
     and preorders, etc.)
   * verification techniques (model checking, equivalence checking,
     abstract interpretation, race detection, static analysis,
     testing and run time analysis, theorem proving, true concurrency
     techniques, symbolic representation techniques, etc.)
