IEEE Software Special Issue: Framing Stakeholders' Concerns

IEEE Software announces a special issue on "Software Architecture: Framing Stakeholders' Concerns". Architects must identify and manage a variety of architectural concerns to devise a successful architecture. This special issue is seeking papers on architecture viewpoints, architecture frameworks and architecture models and architecture description languages for identifying and modeling concerns. Expected publication date: Nov/Dec 2010

SHARK 2010

The Fifth Workshop on SHAring and Reusing architectural Knowledge (SHARK 2010) asks the community to discuss and contribute on how to reorganize and codify the Body of Knowledge of the WICSA community (WICSA BOK).

In conjunction with the 32nd International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE 2010), Cape Town, South Africa. 2 May 2010.
