	       CALL FOR PAPERS (SUITE 2009)
     International Workshop on Search-Driven Development: 
        Users, Infrastructure, Tools and Environment
	   (http://smallwiki.unide.ch/suite2009)

	       May 16, 2009   Vancouver, Canada
   In association with the 31st International Conference on
                Software Engineering (ICSE2009)
/****************************************************************/

As software development is a process of both information creation and 
information gathering, software developers are constantly searching 
for the right information and person to solve their problems at hand. 
This workshop will focus specifically on exploring the notion of search 
as a fundamental activity during software development.

The goal of the workshop is to bring researchers and practitioners with 
special interest on search technology for software developers together. 
Participants will have broad range of expertise in topics ranging from 
building software tools and infrastructure, information retrieval, user 
studies and HCI, benchmarking and evaluation.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
 - Applications and tools for searching software artifacts.
 - Approaches to search for developer expertise.
 - Crawling, analysis and parsing of internet-scale code repositories.
 - Empirical studies of search and navigation in IDEs.
 - Experience on setting up and running large software search engines.
 - Information retrieval techniques to search software.
 - Integration of search engines with IDEs.
 - Just in time comprehension tools for developers.
 - Leveraging Web 2.0 and social computing techniques.
 - Machine learning approaches to search software.
 - Methods of integrating indexed data from various sources and histories.
 - Natural language processing to support software development.
 - Novel models for searching in software message boards and mail archives.
 - Programming by example.
 - Query languages for software search.
 - Ranking strategies and heuristics for code search.
 - Search techniques to assist developers in finding components and code 
   fragments for reuse.
 - Recommendation systems for software development.
 - Slicing and generative techniques for code extraction and synthesis.
 - Standards and benchmarks for the evaluation of search tools.
 - The use of visualizations to support software search.
 - Experts finding for software development.
 - Understanding information needs of software developers.

/*******************************/
/* Submissions and Proceedings */
/*******************************/
The workshop invites the submission of position papers of at most 4 pages 
in the IEEE Proceedings format. Proceedings of the workshop will be 
included in the IEEE digital library. The program committee will review 
the submissions for their relevance and technical merits. We especially 
encourage the submission of provoking or unconventional ideas that can 
lead to lively and productive discussions, and inspire new research ideas 
and directions.

Submissions should be uploaded online to the workshop's EasyChair webpage. 
Please refer to the workshop's webpage
