Welcome to SOSE 2011  

The 6th IEEE International Symposium on

Service-Oriented System Engineering

December 12-14, 2011,  Irvine, CA, USA

Collocated with SOCA, KSEM, RTSOAA and KASTLES

Sponsored by: IEEE Computer Society;

Co-sponsored by: Arizona State University, San Jose State University, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Oxford Brookes University, University of Leeds.

Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) exploits services as the fundamental elements for developing computer-based systems. It has been applied to various areas and promotes fundamental changes to system architecture. Recently, cloud computing further expands the scope of SOC to include new subjects such as Platform as a Service (PaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS), Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), and Testing as a Service (TaaS). SOC changes the way software systems are being analyzed, architected, designed, implemented, tested, evaluated, delivered, consumed, maintained, and evolved.

Starting from 2005, SOSE is one of the pioneering symposia devoted to the research in engineering service-oriented systems. It has addressed issues in various aspects of engineering SOA-based systems from architecture and computing paradigm to the development and quality validation problems and solutions. SOSE symposia's unique feature is its focus on the SOC from the perspectives of software engineering and system engineering.

Continuing the tradition of the last five SOSE Symposia, the 6th SOSE provides a forum for researchers and practitioners to exchange latest observations, insights, research achievements and visions in the engineering of service systems. Particularly, SOSE 2011 invites original submissions in all the areas of the system engineering, software engineering methods, techniques, tools, applications, and experiments for software services.
