SEAMS 2022: The 17th Symposium on Software Engineering for Adaptive and Self-Managing Systems https://conf.researchr.org/home/seams-2022 Co-located with ICSE 2022, https://conf.researchr.org/home/icse-2022 May 18-20: Virtual Technical Program May 23: In-Person Program, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
Many of today's software-intensive systems need to continuously preserve and optimize their operation in the presence of uncertain changes in their operating environment, resource variability, evolving user needs, attacks and faults. In addition to that, the complexity of these systems demands autonomy, self-management,and self-adaptation. SEAMS focuses on applying software engineering methods, techniques, processes and tools to support the construction of safe, performant, and cost-effective self-adaptive and autonomous systems that provide self-* properties like self-configuration, self-healing, self-optimization, and self-protection. SEAMS brings together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry and government, to investigate, discuss, examine and advance the fundamental principles, the state of the art, and the solutions addressing critical challenges of engineering self-adaptive and self-managing systems. SEAMS 2022 will have a virtual component, an in-person component, plus vibrant keynotes, a community discussion, and a doctoral track. ------------------------------------ Important Dates ------------------------------------ Author Registration Deadline: March 31, 2022 Early Bird Registration Deadline: April 1, 2022 Virtual Program: May 18-20, 2022 In-person Program: May 23, 2022 Registration is available at: https://conf.researchr.org/attending/icse-2022/registration ------------------------------------ Keynotes ------------------------------------ We have two keynotes: the first one will be given by Phil Koopman (Carnegie Mellon University) and the second one by Federica Sarro (University College London).

A number of prospective participants have expressed concerns about attending in person. To encourage as many people to attend as possible, all in-person participants will be required to show proof of vaccination and to wear masks during the conference. During meals and receptions, especially those held outdoors, masking requirements will be relaxed appropriately. ------------------------------------ SEAMS Organization ------------------------------------ General Chair: * Bradley Schmerl, Carnegie Mellon University, USA Program Co-Chairs: * Martina Maggio, Saarland University, Germany / Lund University, Sweden * Javier Cámara, University of Málaga, Spain Publicity and Social Media: * Ivana Dusparic, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland * Lukas Esterle, Aarhus University, Denmark * Mohan Baruwal Chhetri, CSIRO's Data61, Australia * Pooyan Jamshidi, University of South Carolina, USA https://conf.researchr.org/committee/seams-2022/seams-2022-papers-organizing-committee
