Lecture Notes in Computer Science4401- Rapid Integration of Software Engineering Techniques

Constitutes the refereed postproceedings of the Third International Workshop on Rapid Integration of Software Engineering Techniques, RISE 2006, held in Geneva, Switzerland, September 2006. This book covers a wide spectrum in software engineering, including software and system architectures, software reuse, software testing, and more. RISE 2006 constituted an international forum for researchers and practitioners interestedintheadvancementandrapidapplicationofnovel,integrated,orpr- ticalsoftwareengineeringapproaches,beingpartofamethodologicalframework, that apply to the development of either new or evolving applications and s- tems. It provided a good opportunity to present and discuss the latest research results and ideas in the rapid and e?ective integration of software engineering techniques. The ERCIM (European Research Consortium for Informatics and Mathematics) RISE working group selected application areas such as the Web, mobility, high availability, and embedded and user-interface software in speci?c industry sectors comprising ?nance, telecommunications, transportation (avi- ics, automotive) and eGovernment. The research issues covered stemmed from the following software engineering domains: – software and system architectures – software reuse – software testing – software model checking – model driven design and testing techniques – model transformation – requirements engineering – lightweight or practice-oriented formal methods – software processes and software metrics – automated software engineering – software patterns – design by contract – defensive programming – software entropy and software re-factoring – extreme programming – agile software development – programming languages – software dependability and trustworthiness All papers submitted to this…
