Abstract

The California Software Symposium (CSS), which was held this year on March 30 at the University of California, Irvine, is the fifth in a series of symposia held annually in southern California. Previously, it was called the Irvine Software Symposium, and was organized by the University of California, Irvine. Starting this year, the event is co-organized by University of California, Irvine; and University of Southern California, Los Angeles (hence the name change). The symposium will be located alternately at the two organizing sites---the next will be at the University of Southern California in April 1996.The purpose of this symposium is to bring together researchers and practitioners to share ideas and experiences in areas of software engineering. This year, a successful tools fair organized by IRUS (Irvine Research Unit in Software) was co-located with the symposium. The participating vendors were: Atria, Cadre, Continuus, IDE, Intersolv, Mark V, Rational, Softool, and Sun.The symposium is slowly gaining momentum and there has been a noticeable increase in the number of papers submitted and in participation. We anticipate further growth in the coming years.The symposium was co-chaired this year by Barry Boehm (USC), and Debra Richardson (UCI). The program committee consisted of 22 people, with a good mixture of academic and industrial representatives.For further information on the upcoming CSS or for any other related information, please contact Debra Brodbeck (714-824-2260, brodbeck@ics.uci.edu) or Sandra Lapis (213-740-5703, sandra@sunset.usc.edu).
