The 19th European Conference on Software Architecture (ECSA 2025) will be held from September 15 to 19, 2025. ECSA 2025 is planned as an in-person conference taking place in the beautiful city of Limassol (Cyprus). SCOPE The theme for ECSA 2025 is “impactful software architecture”. The software architecture discipline has had a critical role in shaping robust, scalable, and maintainable systems. We are interested in learning about software architecture principles and practices, emergence trends and case studies highlighting strategic architectural choices that can lead to enhanced performance, improved collaboration, and long-term sustainability. The overarching question is how these architectural principles and practices, both well-established and emerging, are making an impact in real-world systems, and how that impact is being felt across various domains, from enterprise systems to more novel areas like, e.g., AI-driven or autonomous applications? Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: • Foundational principles of software architecture • Relationship of requirements engineering and software architecture • Quality attributes and software architectures • Architecture practices for secure, explainable, and trustworthy software • Architecture design and analysis • Architecture description languages and meta-models • Architecture verification and validation • Management of architectural knowledge, decisions, and rationale • Architecture patterns, styles, and tactics; reference architectures • Architecture viewpoints and views • Architecture conformance • Software architecture virtualization and visualization • Architecture-centric process models and frameworks • Software architecture and agile, incremental, iterative, and continuous development • Component-based models and deployment; middleware • Software architecture and system architecture • Software tools and environments for architecture-centric software engineering • Ethics, cultural, economic, business, social, human, and managerial aspects of software architecture • Architecture and technical debt • Architecting for sustainable and environment friendly systems • Applying AI and LLMs in software architecture and architecting for AI and LLM intensive systems • Software architecture education • Cross-disciplinary approaches to software architecture • Architectures for reconfigurable and self-adaptive systems • Architectural concerns of autonomic systems • Software architecture applied to new and emerging areas, such as the cloud/edge, big data, blockchain, cyber-physical systems, IoT, autonomous systems, systems-of-systems, energy- aware software, quantum computing, AI-enabled systems • Empirical studies, systematic literature reviews, and mapping studies in software architecture • Diversity, equity, and inclusion in activities related to software architecture TOOLS AND DEMOS The Tools and Demonstrations (Tools & Demos) Track provides an opportunity for both researchers and practitioners to present and discuss the most recent advances, ideas, experiences, and challenges in the field of Software Architecture by means of Tools & Demos presentations. Tools & Demos papers are intended to address any aspect of: (i) tool support for software architectures, or (ii) demonstrate results about the application of architectural approaches. Papers submitted to this track can belong to two distinct categories: • Tool papers: These papers deal with the development and evaluation of tools to support software architecture. They may present new tools, extensions to existing tools, or evaluations of the effectiveness of tools. The aim is to provide a platform for the exchange of innovative tools and techniques that help design, implement and analyze software architectures. • Demo papers: These papers will demonstrate concepts, techniques or systems related to software architectures. The focus is on presenting practical applications and implementations of architectural approaches. Demo papers may include live demonstrations, prototypes or simulations that emphasize the benefits and potential of specific architecture solutions. Both Tool Papers and Demo Papers contribute to the advancement of the field by providing insights, experiences and practical solutions related to software architectures. Tools and Demos should not be used as a means for commercial advertisement. We will strive to keep ECSA’s tradition to select the Best Tools & Demo Paper, awarded during the conference. The selection of the best tool and demo paper will be made based on the votes of the attendants of the conference. Submissions of Tools & Demos papers should describe the work, how it relates to other industrial or research efforts, including references, what the expected benefits are, a video of the tool or demo (if one exists), and the web-page and/or open-source repository for the tool (if one exists).

Upcoming DFIR Stream 0xE Webinar — “Identifying Fraudulent CAPTCHA Solvers Using Network Propagation Analysis”

by Andrew Zayine

Dear All, We are excited to invite you to an upcoming DFIR Stream 0xE webinar: Title: “Identifying Fraudulent CAPTCHA Solvers Using Network Propagation Analysis” Presenters: -Martynas Buožis — Information Security Architect, Amadeus Data Processing GmbH -Umberto Fontana — PhD Candidate, Telecom SudParis & Amadeus IT Group Abstract: Malicious actors often use CAPTCHA Farms to bypass bot protection, enabling fraud such as inventory denial and SMS pumping. These farms cleverly mirror IP addresses and client fingerprints, making traditional detection methods ineffective. Meanwhile, their CAPTCHA-solving times are indistinguishable from legitimate users. In this talk, our speakers will present a novel technique for uncovering the use of CAPTCHA Farms by analyzing network propagation times. By comparing observed delays with the geographic distances implied by IP addresses, this approach aims to statistically identify suspicious patterns. - Date & Time: Tuesday, March 25, 2:00 – 3:00 pm (GMT+00:00) - Location: Online (Pre-registration required) - Event Registration Link: https://www.acfti.org/news-events/dfir-stream-0xe - Online Registration Ends: March 23 at 04:00 PM (GMT+00:00) Don’t miss this chance to learn about cutting-edge research on detecting fraudulent CAPTCHA solvers and to provide valuable feedback! ======Housekeeping Notes====== - Note that this event is online only. Hence, You must register to receive a link to connect. Due to limited availability, we kindly ask you to register as soon as possible to ensure your participation in the webinar of your choice. Finally, I would like to remind you that the call for speakers is currently open on the dedicated DFIR stream website, https://dfir.stream/call-for-guest-speakers #CyberSecurity #DFIR #CAPTCHA #OnlineFraud Best regards, Andrew Zayin Ph.D., CISSP, CISM, CRISC, CDPSE, PMP ACFTI Secretariat

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following themes: • Experience with architectures for emerging technologies, like LLM, and Agent-based system • Domain-specific challenges for software architects and architectures • Architecture specification and documentation • Architectural patterns, tactics, and tools • Practices and methods supporting architecture design, evaluation and evolution • Integration of architectural practices and methods with other software engineering approaches/practices/methods (e.g. Agile) • Social and organizational aspects, like human-machine, human-AI interactions, human-in-the-loop The ECSA 2025 Industry track aims to contribute to bridging the gap between academia and industrial practice by establishing an open communication and discussion environment. It will offer researchers and practitioners the opportunity to interact with fellow professionals and develop new ideas and skills for addressing industrial problems and collaborations. There are three ways to contribute: Full Papers (up to 16 pages in Springer LNCS style) describing best practices and experience from applying novel approaches to large-scale industrial projects in the context of software architecture. Submissions will be selected based on originality, quality, soundness, practical relevance, and potential for discussion. Short Papers and Presentations (6-10 pages in Springer LNCS style) outlining presentations on practices and experience related to software architecture from the industry. Submissions will be selected based on originality, practical relevance, and potential for discussion. Software Architecture Showcases (6 pages in Springer LNCS style) demonstrating a specific real-world architecture (including its flaws) together with a discussion of the context, challenges, and/or process that led to its present form. It can be formulated as an abstract outlining the architecture to be presented, preferably together with links to externally available work products. Submissions will be selected based on the offered insights into real architectural work, work products, and learnings related to architecture. All contributions need to be written in English, must be original, not published, accepted, or submitted for publication elsewhere. If accepted, each contribution needs to be presented by one of the authors who is registered at the conference. All contributions must be formatted according to the Springer LNCS style (https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-gu…). Page limits include figures and references. Contributions need to be submitted in PDF format via EasyChair to the ECSA 2025 Research Track: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ecsa2025.
