Hello, Can you please forward this to the infovis digest list? Thanks. --John SOFTVIS '05 ACM Symposium on Software Visualization St. Louis, Missouri, USA 14 - 15 May, 2005 ------------------------------------------------------------------ Software visualization encompasses the development and evaluation of methods for graphically representing different aspects of software, including its structure, its abstract and concrete execution, and its evolution. The SOFTVIS '05 symposium provides a forum for researchers from different backgrounds (HCI, software engineering, programming languages, visualization, computer science education) to discuss and present original research on software visualization. SOFTVIS '05 is the second meeting in a series of biennial conferences. This year's event attracted more paper submissions than the first iteration in 2003 -- an indication of the growing relevance of this important research field. The final program for the conference includes twenty paper presentations and a poster session. The program is on-line at the conference Web page http://www.softvis.org/softvis05. SOFTVIS '05 is co-located with International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE) in St. Louis, Missouri, USA. Registration for SOFTVIS '05 is coordinated through ICSE at http://www.cs.wustl.edu/icse05/Registration/Registration.shtml. The deadline for early registration rates ends April 10, so we encourage you to register as soon as possible. In addition to early registration, special rates are in effect for members of IEEE and ACM and for students.
