2nd International Workshop on Blockchain Oriented Software Engineering (IWBOSE)

Website: http://www.agilegroup.eu/iwbose2019/


The workshop’s goal is to gather together practitioners and researchers to discuss on progresses on the research and on the practical usage of blockchain technologies and smart contracts, focusing on the application and definition of software engineering principles and practices specific for such software technology, and for the technologies relying on it. The workshop calls researches on specific tools, paradigms, principles, approaches to deal with the new challenges posed by Blockchain technology to software engineers and for a specific Blockchain Oriented Software Engineering.

Topics:

  • Blockchain Oriented Software Engineering
  • Blockchain software analysis and reengineering
  • Formal specification of Blockchain behavior
  • Agile and Lean processes for Blockchain software development
  • Tools for Blockchain software distributed development and community management
  • Smart Contracts reengineering
  • Security and reliability in Blockchain and Smart Contracts
  • Smart Contract Testing (SCT)
  • Blockchain Transaction Testing (BTT) to ensure status integrity
  • Blockchain Software architecture, design notation and metamodels.
  • Smart Contracts Software architecture, design notation and metamodels.
