CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS


IMPORTANT DATES:

Submission of title, authors and abstract: Febr. 01, 2009
Notification of acceptance: Apr. 15, 2009
Submission of presentations (and optionally papers): May 15, 2009


SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES

The TTCN-3 User Conference (T3UC) is an annual event which brings together
the TTCN-3 community, to see how the language is used in both industrial
and research environments, to hear about future directions, to see the latest
tools and to share experiences.

T3UC 2009 is organized by the European Telecommunications Standards
Institute (ETSI) and will feature tutorials and presentations from members
of the TTCN-3 user community and other invited speakers.

TTCN-3 is a mature technology whose popularity is increasing rapidly. It is
used in both small and large development projects and is seen by many as the
key component of efficient and cost effective validation and testing. TTCN-3's
use has extended beyond its established application of telecommunications
testing into new areas such as embedded system testing and software testing
in general.

T3UC 2009 provides a full picture of TTCN-3:

* first-hand information on the practical use of the language;

* user experience in introducing, implementing and operating TTCN-3;

* specific real-life case studies;

* capabilities and availability of TTCN-3 tools; and

* the direction of future standardization and development to reinforce its

place as the building block of integrated design and testing environments.


SUBMISSION DETAILS

Proposals are invited for 25 minutes presentations on the following topics:

- practical experience and results of using TTCN-3; achievements and position
statements on different application domains such as aerospace, automotive,
banking, Internet-based systems, medical devices, mobile and broadband
telecommunication, railways, space and telematics, telemetry, web services;

- practical results of integrating TTCN-3 into existing test platforms and
test devices; experience reports on the application of TTCN-3 based test
solutions and test frameworks;

- achievements in integrated software design and testing methods (e.g
integration
with model-driven engineering), reports on adoption of or migration to TTCN-3;

- evaluations of development and testing processes that integrate TTCN-3, also
in comparison to other testing technologies;

- experiences in training and educating TTCN-3

- the future of TTCN-3; e.g., proposals for language extensions and position
statements on the role of TTCN-3 in new trends in testing, new application areas
and planned or ongoing research

A proposal for a presentation should not be longer than two A4 pages. It must
include a title, the name of the presenter, a contact address, a summary of
the presentation and a statement regarding the intended audience.

Proposals (in pdf format) should be sent to t3uc@...

A template for proposals can be downloaded from:

http://www.ttcn-3.org/TTCN3UC2009/callforpaper.htm

A special issue of STTT is planned with papers on selected presentations of
T3UC.
