19th European Conference on Software Architecture (ECSA 2025): Last Mile for Workshop Papers

by Announce

*** Last Mile for Workshop Papers *** 19th European Conference on Software Architecture (ECSA 2025) September 15-19, 2025, 5* St. Raphael Resort and Marina, Limassol, Cyprus https://conf.researchr.org/home/ecsa-2025 (*** Proceedings to be published by Springer in LNCS ***) (*** Submission Deadline: June 2, 2025 (extended and firm!) ***) The European Conference on Software Architecture (ECSA) is the premier European forum for presenting and discussing software architecture research and practice. ECSA edition 2025 hosts workshops on topics related to software architecture. The following workshops will be held between September 15-16, 2025: 8th International Workshop on Context-Aware, Autonomous and Smart Architectures (CASA) https://casaecsa.github.io/casa2025/ Software is becoming increasingly aware of its current execution context. Decisions that were traditionally made at design time are being postponed until runtime to improve the services that software provides to its users. In addition, software reasons about the execution environments and its internal state to improve the functionality provided to its users. Some of the keywords that characterize software today are: context-aware, dynamic, autonomous, smart, adaptive, self-managed. In this context, the Context-aware, Autonomous, and Smart Architectures (CASA) workshop aims to address the issues and challenges raised by the design, implementation, and evaluation of software systems characterized by the above keywords. Novel design and development approaches are needed to address the new issues raised by such systems. New solutions are expected to properly address the trade-offs between the various quality attributes that characterize these systems. Or, existing architectural solutions should be adapted and improved to meet the evolving and dynamic requirements of context-aware, autonomous, and intelligent systems. The workshop aims to bring together software engineers, computer scientists, researchers, practitioners, and educators to discuss and exchange results, case studies, experiences, novel approaches, and visionary ideas on software architectures for context-aware, autonomous, and smart solutions. 1st International Workshop on Architecting Digital Twin of an Organization (ArchDTO) https://archdto.github.io/archdto2025/ The Digital Twin of an Organization (DTO) extends the concept of Digital Twins to create virtual replicas of business models, processes, resources, and interactions. DTOs enable optimization of decision-making, increased efficiency, and adaptability to rapid changes by leveraging real- time data, simulations, AI, and predictive analytics. Despite their transformative potential, DTOs are still in early development, facing significant software architecture challenges such as scalability, interoperability, model robustness, and real-time data integration. This workshop explores the architectural frameworks, design patterns, and software engineering principles needed to build robust DTOs. Topics include frameworks for DTO creation, enterprise modeling methodologies, technological enablers like AI and the Internet of Things, and real-world use cases from academia and industry. Given the novelty of the topic, the workshop consists of two main sessions: (1) presentations of academic and industry papers on DTO architectures, frameworks, and technologies, and (2) an interactive workshop session, where participants will engage in problem-solving, explore case studies, and collaboratively define challenges, solutions, and best practices for architecting DTOs. 1st International Workshop on AI-Assisted Software Architecting (AISA) https://sites.google.com/view/aisasa/home?pli=1 AI-assisted software architecting is transforming how architectural decisions are made, implemented, and maintained. Leveraging artificial intelligence, this paradigm enhances architectural decision making, automates repetitive architecting tasks, and optimizes system designs. The AISA workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners to explore AI’s role in various software architecting activities, including architecture analysis, design, decision-making, evolution, and documentation. We will also discuss AI-driven architectural pattern recommendations, best practices, and the application of AI in continuous architecting and self-adaptive architectures. Topics include AI-assisted architecture synthesis, automated architecture pattern selection, refactoring, security enforcement, and integrating AI into DevOps and MLOps pipelines. The workshop will foster discussions and collaborations between academia and industry to identify open challenges, research directions, and practical applications 5th International Workshop on Agility with Microservices Programming (AMP) https://amp-workshops.github.io The AMP workshop aims to collect experiences on microservice adoption and reporting best practices, as well as failure cases, to build community knowledge based on past mistakes and successes. We also emphasize the current trend towards AI-driven software engineering practices and the development of data- intensive applications. The workshop seeks for solutions and experiences both on both AI-assisted tooling, and building data-intensive applications and LLMs using microservices. The workshop is open to experience reports from practitioners and academics. We seek to collect original work on the science and engineering of programming microservices. 1st International Workshop on Software Architecture for Data-Intensive Systems (SADIS) https://sadis2025.smartarch.cz Modern software systems increasingly rely on data-centric processes to fuel intelligent features, scalable services, and real-time insights. As these systems evolve, designing effective software architectures for data-intensive environments becomes critical yet challenging. These architectures must address complex concerns such as handling high-velocity data streams, ensuring security and privacy, integrating heterogeneous data sources and heterogeneous computation fabrics (including GPUs/TPUs and edge devices), and adapting to changing workloads. The workshop aims to bring together academic researchers, industry practitioners, and thought leaders to explore cutting-edge approaches for building, deploying, and maintaining robust data-centric solutions. We invite discussions on a range of topics at the intersection of data-intensive systems and software architecture, including machine learning (ML) pipelines, ML Operations (MLOps) frameworks and patterns, domain-specific languages, reference architectures, and visualization techniques. Emphasis is placed on practical experiences, innovative tools and platforms, and theoretical advancements that tackle the ever-growing demands placed on data-intensive systems. By fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge exchange, the workshop seeks to shape the future of data-driven architecture design and empower professionals and researchers to address emerging challenges in this rapidly evolving domain. Workshop on Adaptive and Reconfigurable Systems and Architectures (AROSA) https://www.redcad.org/events/arosa2025/ The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners both from the Academia and from the Industry working in the areas of the adaptation and reconfiguration of distributed systems. Different investigation topics are involved, such as: CBSE, Web service, cloud applications, mobile applications, Functional and Non-Functional requirements (QoS, performance, resilience), monitoring, diagnosis, deci- sion and execution of adaptation and reconfiguration. Different research areas are covered: concepts, methods, techniques, and tools to design, develop, deploy and manage adaptive and reconfigurable software systems. The concept of adaptive and reconfigurable software systems has been introduced in order to describe architectures, which exhibit such properties. An adaptive and reconfigurable software system can repair itself if any execution problems occur, in order to successfully complete its own execution, while respecting functional requirements and quality attributes. In the design of an adaptive and reconfigurable software system, several aspects have to be considered. For instance, the system should be able to predict or to detect degradations and failures as soon as possible and to enact suitable recovery actions. SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS Please refer to the instructions at the workshops' web sites. IMPORTANT DATES • Paper Submission: June 2, 2025 (extended and firm!) • Notification of Acceptance/Rejection: June 20, 2025 • Camera-Ready Submission: June 27, 2025 • Author Registration: June 27, 2025 • Workshop Days: September 15-16, 2025 All dates are 23:59h AoE (anywhere on Earth).

MIT Senseable City Lab Newsletter: May 2025

by MIT Senseable City Lab

Newsletter | May 2025 Air pollution disrupts menstrual cycles [https://senseable.mit.edu/dust-bloom/] Ambient air pollution is responsible for over 4 million premature deaths worldwide each year, with well-documented effects on respiratory and cardiovascular health. But its impact runs deeper — all the way to women’s reproductive systems, as shown by the data analysis of over 2 million menstrual cycles. A groundbreaking new study, Dust Bloom [http://senseable.mit.edu/dust-bloom], reveals a previously underexplored connection: long-term exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is associated with irregular menstrual cycles — a key indicator of women’s overall health. Published in The Lancet Planetary Health [https://senseable.mit.edu/papers/pdf/20250514_deSouza-etal_EvidenceAir_Lanc…], the study is a collaboration between the MIT Senseable City Lab, the University of Colorado Denver [https://www.ucdenver.edu], and Clue [https://helloclue.com], a menstrual health app used by millions globally. Researchers analyzed over 2.2 million menstrual cycles from 92,550 users across 230 cities in the United States, Mexico, and Brazil, spanning 2016 to 2020. This is one of the most comprehensive datasets ever used to investigate environmental effects on menstrual health. “Menstrual cycles are a vital sign of health, yet they’ve been largely ignored in environmental health research,” says Priyanka deSouza, co-author and professor at the University of Colorado Denver. “This study sheds light on a critical, yet often overlooked, consequence of air pollution — particularly for women.” “The integration of large-scale high-res health data and advanced environmental monitoring — including satellite-derived air quality measures — is transforming how we study public health,” says Carlo Ratti. “It’s especially crucial in regions like Latin America, where communities face disproportionate environmental harm.” Dust Bloom not only highlights the hidden costs of pollution on women’s health but also demonstrates the power of digital health data in uncovering insights that might otherwise remain invisible. When science centers sex-specific outcomes, it opens new pathways to protect and promote the well-being of all. Projects Updates, Scientific Papers [https://senseable.mit.edu/data-slots] Global overview of data privacy From tech giants to city governments, data privacy is at the center of today’s most pressing debates. In Humanities and Social Sciences Communications [https://senseable.mit.edu/papers/pdf/20250411_Mazzarello-etal_Data_Slots_HS…] we show that the public's perception of privacy isn’t as rigid as it may seem — and that trust can be built through transparency and inclusion. Based on Data Slots [https://senseable.mit.edu/data-slots], an interactive game played in-person across 18 countries and online in 78 countries, we reveal a compelling insight: people’s attitudes toward privacy shift significantly depending on the context and purpose of data use. A key takeaway for policymakers highlighted by MIT News is that when residents feel they are actively involved in shaping how data is used, privacy concerns begin to decline sharply. [https://senseable.mit.edu/beijing-inside-out/] How policies change domestic spaces A new study reveals how China's rapid urbanization has transformed not only cities but also the design of everyday homes. In Beijing Inside Out [https://senseable.mit.edu/beijing-inside-out/], we used computer vision to analyze over 2,000 apartment floor plans in Beijing, spanning from 1970 to 2020. The results, published in Humanities and Social Sciences Communications [https://senseable.mit.edu/papers/pdf/20250320_Yao-etal_BeijingUrbanization_…], show a clear evolution in domestic layouts — with increasingly defined living rooms, dining areas, and kitchens — reflecting a shift toward privacy, multifunctionality, and individuality. These changes align with broader societal trends, including rising incomes, changing family structures, and evolving national housing policies. The study illustrates how large-scale urban and political shifts manifest in the most personal of spaces: the home.

**** We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this Call **** ========================================= *COL-SAI: 1st International Workshop on COllaboration and Learning through Symbiotic Artificial Intelligence* ========================================= co-located with the 16th Biannual Conference of the Italian SIGCHI Chapter - “*Technologies and Methodologies of Human-Computer Interaction in the Third Millenium*“ (*CHITALY 2025 <https://chitaly2025.di.unisa.it/>*) Salerno, Italy 6 – 10 October 2025 Workshop website: https://sites.google.com/unisa.it/col-sai <https://sites.google.com/unisa.it/col-sai/home-page> *Call for papers* The rapid advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) are transforming the way humans interact with technology. The integration of AI in our daily lives can provide substantial support in many contexts, ranging from medicine to education, improving the performance of both sides in terms of knowledge and resources. Although the traditional approach in creating AI systems focuses on the functionalities and high performance of their models, modern society is witnessing a shift from mere automation to augmentation and collaboration, where AI and humans enhance and learn from each other. A step forward in this direction is enabling humans and AI to work symbiotically together. Symbiosis can be described as a consequence of the human-AI partnership, where human intelligence serves to improve AI systems, and vice versa, through a bidirectional relationship of mutual exchange. This workshop aims to explore how humans and AI systems can effectively collaborate, learn from each other, and co-adapt symbiotically. Through discussions and the exchange of perspectives, the workshop has the goal of investigating the key components of the interaction between the two parties. Participants will gain deeper insights into the implications of integrating AI into various aspects of daily life, facilitating problem-solving activities such as learning, decision-making, and co-creation. *Topics* The topics that will be addressed in the workshop are the following: - The impact of a symbiotic human-AI relationship in collaborative environments. - Human-Computer Interaction methodologies and techniques to foster symbiosis between humans and AI. - Using AI in human learning processes to assist humans cognitively. - Using AI for education and skill development. - Methodologies and techniques for transferring knowledge between humans and AI through feedback mechanisms. - Ethical considerations in human-AI collaborative environments (bias mitigation, fairness, non-discrimination, etc). - AI adaptability for personalized interaction experiences based on individuals' requirements. - The role of trustworthiness in human-AI collaboration for critical activities. - Design and evaluation of systems that foster and support human-AI collaboration. - Case studies of AI in real-world applications (medicine, healthcare, education, etc). *Important Dates* - Submission deadline: *June **16th **2025 * - Notification: *June 30**th **2025 * *Submissions and Evaluation Criteria* Contributions for the workshop must be submitted through EasyChair using the following link https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=colsai2025, following the LaTeX or Microsoft Word template, available at: *https://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip <https://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip>*.

*** Last Call for Journal First Papers *** 19th European Conference on Software Architecture (ECSA 2025) September 15-19, 2025, 5* St. Raphael Resort and Marina, Limassol, Cyprus https://conf.researchr.org/home/ecsa-2025 The European Conference on Software Architecture (ECSA) is the premier European software architecture conference, providing researchers, practitioners, and educators with a platform to present and discuss the most recent, innovative, and significant findings and experiences in the field of software architecture research and practice. 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). ECSA 2025 enriches its partnership with more journals and opportunities than ever before, to incorporate journal-first papers into its program. The journals are: - Journal of Systems and Software (JSS) - IEEE Software - Information & Software Technology (IST) - Transaction on Software Engineering (TSE) We invite authors of journal papers accepted by JSS, IEEE Software, IST, or TSE since December 1, 2023 to submit their work for presentation at ECSA 2025, which will allow authors of journal-first papers to present their work to the community. SCOPE A journal-first paper submitted to ECSA 2025 must adhere to the following criteria: • The paper must have been accepted after peer review by one between JSS, IEEE Software, IST or TSE. • The paper is in the scope of the conference. • The paper has not been presented at and is not under consideration for journal-first programs of other conferences. PAPER SUBMISSION We invite authors of papers that meet the above criteria to submit a proposal that includes a summary of the original paper that highlights the contributions, motivates the relevance for the ECSA, and briefly discusses how the work has developed after the original publication - if it is the case. Please include the DOI of the original journal paper. ECSA offers an opportunity to disseminate your work to a broader community audience. The submission must be 3-4 pages long and conform to the Springer LNCS style (https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-gu…).
