Software Systems researches new programming and modeling languages, development methods and environments for large software-intensive systems, with a focus on web based and dependable systems, where communication and concurrency are pervasive. Sample application scenarios we are particularly interested in include web based applications (e.g., business apps, social networks), service infrastructures (e.g., app-stores, multi-party services / mashups), and ubiquitous computing infrastructures, such as smart buildings. Our work bridges from foundational theoretical principles to prototype development, experimental validation, and ultimately to technology and knowledge transfer.
Fernando Brito e Abreu @ Universidad Politécnica de Valencia (Spain)Presentation of the invited talk "Integrating Metamodel Driven Measurement in the Eclipse IDE". Presentation of current research works and discussion of possible collaborations in the future.
Marco Giunti @ University of Malta (Malta)Short term scientific mission supported by ECOST action Behavioural Types for Reliable Large-Scale Software Systems (BETTY). Title: "A behavioural theory for sessions".

João Costa Seco @ Carnegie Mellon University (United States)Faculty Exchange Visit at Carnegie Mellon University, under the CMU|Portugal program Report
João Araújo @ Lancaster University (United Kingdom)Participation in a PhD jury and meetings to explore future collaborations.
João Araújo @ Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (Brazil)Visit to UFMG to explore new collaborations, participating as a keynote in a Software Engineering Workshop.
João Araújo @ PUC-Rio (Brazil)To do research with Alessandro Garcias's group. Two papers were published as results of this visit.
Fernando Brito e Abreu @ Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (Brazil)Visiting professsor at COPPE / Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. Presentation of two department seminars. Presentation of ongoing research work and plans for future cooperation.
Carla Ferreira @ Carnegie Mellon University (United States)Faculty Exchange CMU Portugal
João Araújo @ Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil)The aim of the visit is to work on the project "Identification of concerns and refactoring in aspect-oriented systems".
Miguel Goulão @ Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil)Work on an approach to rank opportunities for refactoring in software artifacts, focusing on those opportunities that are more likely to improve a set of software quality attributes. The approach uses (i) metrics-based evaluation functions to quantitatively rank refactoring opportunities and (ii) impact functions to evaluate the effects of refactoring (without actually having to refactor the artifacts). The approach aims to help developers to choose the best refactoring opportunities in a given context.
João Araújo @ Chinese University of Hong Kong (China)The pupose of the visit to CUHK Computer Science and Engineering Department, is to discuss possible future collaborations and carry on work started in the area of aspect-oriented requirements where both have organised workshops together and edited a special issue on early aspects.
Fernando Brito e Abreu @ École des Mines de Nantes (France)Visiting professor at the Département Informatique. Presentation of a course in Experimental Software Engineering at the EMOOSE European MSc program. Research meeting with Jean Bézivin.
João Araújo @ University of Ottawa (Canada)To worr on teh area of aspects for software product lines, with application to a case study, the results will lead to a paper submission a Journal. The approach developed provides a good application domain for the Aspect-oriented user Requirements Notation and an innovative integration between goal models and feature models.
João Araújo @ Lancaster University (United Kingdom)The purpose of the visit is to attend the plenary meeting of teh AMPLE project.
