Hello Everyone:
One of the action items that resulted from the recent
Vancouver F2F is to propose an "OpenUP" workshop for International
Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE) 2009 which will be in Vancouver next
year. The intent behind such a workshop is to raise the profile of OpenUP
and EPF in the academic and industry community. One problem, I am have a
difficult time trying to dream up an engaging workshop for this. What should
the focus be? Probably needs to be greater than just OpenUP and EPF. So what unique
and generic category would we like to create here? Do we look at OpenUP
and EPF as an example of "Adaptable and Scalable" processes? So what
are some of the issues? And most important, who wants to be on the program committee?
I am assuming that I can count on most of the committers, but we will need to
drag in a few name brand academics who work with UP processes - I have
one name in mind :-) but we need to think up a few others.
I just need some suggestions. The deadline for submitting
workshop proposals is Sept 15th, but it is considered polite if you can let the
program chair know that you are planning to sumbit a proposal early. I would
like to have some ideas by the end of next week. And that is all I need right
now, just some ideas. I can work out a proposal after that.
best regards,
Steve Adolph
