************************************************************************** * ADVANCE PROGRAM & REGISTRATION * * The 20th International Conference on Software Engineering(ICSE98) * * April 19-25, 1998 * * Kyoto International Conference Hall, Kyoto, JAPAN * * http://icse98.aist-nara.ac.jp/ * ************************************************************************** ICSE's twentieth birthday affords an opportunity to reflect on profound changes of the past two decades. Since ICSE's founding, politics and technology have converged to shatter once formidable barriers to international cooperation. The collapse of the Berlin Wall symbolizes the end of the Cold War, and links in a Web page are a metaphor for our enhanced capacity for global information exchange. In this spirit, we have worked hard to ensure that ICSE98 will see an unprecedented increase in the level of international participation and provide an opportunity to highlight the interests and accomplishments of members from the Asian-Pacific region. Yet our outreach must extend beyond geography. As we continue to build bridges to other software disciplines, researchers and practitioners in allied fields will benefit from an understanding of the contributions that software engineering can make to their work. In turn, we must address their problems in our research. New collaborations between academia and industry will also enrich ICSE98 and our profession as a whole. The presentation of top-notch papers will, of course, constitute the core activity of ICSE98. Cutting edge research will be showcased in technical paper sessions, workshops, panels, posters, demonstrations, and special sessions devoted to the lessons learned from building large and complex software systems. We hope you will take advantage of this unique opportunity to meet new colleagues, exchange ideas, and explore the nearly limitless possibilities that lie ahead. Join us in Kyoto for ICSE98 and share the excitement that comes from forging new links.

Interactive communication and demonstration will be the most exciting and powerful presentation. Posters: All types of work in software engineering can be presented effectively using posters during the conference. Display space will be provided in the poster and research demonstration room. A description of each poster will appear in the proceedings for posters and research demonstrations. Research Demonstrations: Research demonstrations are intended to show early implementation of novel software engineering concepts. Research demonstrations will be scheduled into blocks of time for demonstration. In addition, a booth will be provided in the poster and research demonstration room to allow informal demonstrations throughout the conference. A description of each research demonstration will appear in the proceedings for research demonstrations. We consider any system which is at least six months away from appearing in a commercial product as a "research system". Commercial systems will not be accepted as research demonstrations.

At ICSE17 in Seattle 1994, we had a workshop on "Asian Approaches to Software Engineering". It was very successful. We are planning to have a similar event in Kyoto. And it will also be possible to implement other plans such as to have a forum to discuss emerging Asian software markets, or for special exhibits of software engineering tools made in Asia. Contact: Kouichi Kishida (k2@sra.co.jp) ****************** Doctoral Symposium ****************** Tuesday, April 21 9:00am-5:00pm The ICSE 98 Doctoral Symposium is a one day workshop prior to the regular ICSE technical conference. The goal of the doctoral symposium is to publicly discuss research goals, methods, and results at an early stage of Ph.D. research and provide useful guidance for completion of the dissertation research. The symposium will also provide an opportunity for student participants to interact with each other as well as with established researchers and engineers in the field. As the systems of doctoral courses are different by cultures, we are expecting participants coming from America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and all over the world. We also plan to discuss how common or different the doctoral systems are among countries. Contact: Tetsuo Tamai (tamai@graco.c.u-tokyo.ac.jp) ************ ICSE98 EXPO ************ Tuesday, April 21 - Friday, April 24 The Exhibit offers commercial exhibit space to vendors as well as research exhibit space for products by academic and government research laboratories.

Nestled among low mountains, it is blessed with both natural beauty and a rich historical legacy. It is the ideal site for international conventions. From its establishment as Japan's capital in 794 until the Meiji Restoration in 1868, Kyoto flourished as the center of government, commerce and culture in Japan. Traditional arts and an abundance of shrines and temples give the city its distinct character. With nearly 1.5 million residents, Kyoto is a vibrant mixture of old and new. Many high-tech firms have chosen it as their headquarters, and the city boasts 47 public and private colleges and universities. These significant intellectual resources combine with Kyoto's long history and tradition to provide an ideal milieu for innovation and creativity. NATURAL BEAUTY Kyoto is a panorama of the changing seasons: from the springtime cherry blossoms lining narrow walkways, the lush greenery of summer, to the brilliant autumn foliage of Japanese maples and the delicate layer of snow covering the surrounding mountainsides in winter. The passage of seasons is also evident in the beautiful gardens of Kyoto's ancient temples and shrines. CULTURAL HERITAGE Reflecting its long history as the cultural and religious center of Japan, Kyoto is home to nearly 2,000 Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines. The city's international cultural significance was recognized when 17 historical sites in Kyoto were designated as UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Sites. Kyoto is the location of 20% of Japan's national treasures. More than 60 museums throughout the city offer visitors the opportunity to view priceless works of art and important cultural objects. KYOTO INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE HALL Japan's leading convention center, the Kyoto International Conference Hall, is a complex consisting of seven separate conference halls, the largest of which can hold 2,000 persons. Another 70 conference rooms of various sizes are available for smaller meetings. Two large banquet halls and a Japanese landscape garden offer additional settings for convention participants to meet and communicate informally. TRANSPORT Kyoto has many modern hotels with accommodations for up to 20,000 visitors. Located near the center of Japan, it is readily accessible by land and air. The high-speed Shinkansen (bullet train) links Tokyo with Kyoto in 2 hours and 15 minutes. Overseas visitors arriving at Kansai International Airport (KIX) have a comfortable 75-minute ride by the JR Haruka Express train to Kyoto Station. There is a direct subway link from Kyoto Station to Kyoto International Conference Hall, taking about 20 minutes. ************************* ICSE98 Committee Members ************************* General Chair Koji Torii (NAIST, Japan) torii@is.aist-nara.ac.jp Technical Co-Chairs Takuya Katayama (JAIST, Japan) katayama@jaist.ac.jp David Notkin(U.of Washington) notkin@cs.washington.edu Program Committee Co-chairs Kokichi Futatsugi (JAIST, Japan) kokichi@jaist.ac.jp Richard Kemmerer (UCSB, USA) kemm@cs.ucsb.edu PC Members: Betty H.C.
