SOFTWARE ENGINEERING ENVIRONMENTS 1989
University of Durham
11-14 April 1989
FINAL NOTICE
AIM
The Software Engineering Environments 1989 Conference is the premier European
professional meeting to review, discuss, debate and learn about the most recent
practice and research results in the field.
The Conference is sponsored by the Institution of Electrical Engineers, The
Commission of the European Communities, and the Information Engineering
Directorate of the DTI.
Invited speakers from key European projects will present the latest results and
trends in the area of software engineering environments and software factories.
Twenty seven papers will be presented, on recent work and future direction of
e.g. PCTE, and the strategic European Eureka projects such as ESF, ASEE and
EAST. The role of knowledge-based systems in environments will be addressed
and results reported. User experience with IPSEs will be described.
The proceedings of the conference will be published, and made available to
delegates at no extra cost.
AUDIENCE
The content of the Conference will cover material of interest to researchers,
to managers, to those who act as 'technology gateways' in their organisations,
in fact to all who are concerned with moving software production from 1970's
operating systems environments to the software factories of the 1990's.
An important benefit of the conference is the formal and informal exchange of
ideas between researchers and practitioners.
The conference will be of particular interest to those involved with either the
ESPRIT II or the UK National programmes. Sessions are arranged on: future
directions of SEE's including software factories; process modelling; PCTE
infrastructure and use; formal methods in SEE's; supporting design; knowledge
based approaches in SEEs; and user experience. There will be a panel session
and how to achieve the industrial take up of SEEs.

LOCATION
Durham is an ancient city, rich in tradition and history. The city sky line
is dominated by the massive Norman cathedral begun in 1092 and the castle,
which was the seat of the Bishops of Durham from the eleventh to the
nineteenth century. Today Durham has a population of about 25,000 and its
narrow streets, cobbled lanes and charming old houses have been carefully
preserved.
Durham is an international tourist centre; the surrounding area has a high
proportion of countryside of outstanding natural beauty. It lies close to
the A1(M) motorway and is three hours north of London by train. There are
airports nearby at Newcastle and Teeside.
