in conjunction with International Conference in Computational Science (ICCS)
June 23-25, Kraków Poland

Motivation

Computational Science techniques are increasingly being applied in both research institutions and industry to for example, financial applications, bioinformatics applications, physical applications, data mining applications based on grid or clusters etc. As with other disciplines there are specific issues when planning and developing such applications. For example, those applications are generally distributed and based upon Grid environments or clusters with specific management and planning issues, design, testing, etc. This workshop would like analyse to software engineering issues specific to these types of applications such as adaptation of processes for, planning, management, verification and validation, testing, quality measurement, etc. Also, there is also a motivation for further research on the other direction, i.e., the application of computational intelligence techniques to software engineering issues as a result of the creation of large metrics databases collected from software projects. Examples of computational techniques applied to Software Engineering include genetic algorithms, Bayesian networks, system dynamics, visualization, search based software engineering etc. Many emergent issues are subject to research efforts combining both computational techniques and Software Engineering.
