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 15th European
Conference on Software Architecture (ECSA 2021) will be held from 13 to 17
September 2021.
ECSA 2021 was originally planned in the beautiful city of Växjö Sweden. Yet
due to COVID-19 and considering what impact this may have on the
conference, the ECSA Steering and Organizing Committee decided to organize
ECSA 2021 as a virtual event.
We would like to express our empathy and condolences with those affected by
COVID-19. Our primary concern is that members of our community, and their
families and friends, remain safe and well.

***SCOPE***
ECSA 2021 aims to focus on how Software Architecture can enable the success
of the next generation of software-enabled systems to address the
challenges of society, such as health, climate, sustainability, mobility,
diversity, and future of production. This raises questions such as: What
are the current research successes that position Software Architecture at
the core of the ability to build and sustain systems of the future? What
automation, tools, and techniques do software architects and engineers need
in order to ensure architectures developed are adaptable, evolvable,
verifiable, and meet their quality and functional requirements?
The program committee of 15th European Conference on Software Architecture
seeks submissions of original and unpublished high-quality papers
describing fundamental and applied research, new methods, approaches, and
processes, novel applications, approaches for education and training in
software architecture, and experience reports on all topics related to
software architecture including, but not limited to:
- Foundational principles of software architecture
- Linking requirements engineering and software architectures
- Quality attributes and software architectures
- Architectural design, analysis and evaluation
- Architecture description languages and meta-models
- Architecture verification and validation
- Management of architectural knowledge, decisions, and rationale
- Cross-disciplinary efforts and software architecture
- Architectures for reconfigurable and self-adaptive systems
- Architectural concerns of autonomic systems
- Architectural patterns, styles and tactics, reference architectures
- Architecture viewpoints and views
- Architecture conformance
- Software architecture and virtualization
- Architecture-centric process models and frameworks
- Software architecture and agility, continuous integration, continuous
development and DevOps tools
- Component-based models and deployment, middleware
- Software architecture and system architecture, including software-defined
networking
- Software tools and environments for architecture-centric software
engineering
- Cultural, economic, business, social and managerial aspects of software
architecture
- Software architecture in different areas such as the cloud/edge-cloud,
big data, blockchain, cyber-physical systems, IoT, autonomous systems,
systems of systems, energy-aware software
- Architecture and technical debt
- Empirical studies, systematic literature reviews, and mapping studies in
software architecture.
