I Brazilian Conference on Software: Theory and Practice

Introduction

CBSoft (Brazilian Conference on Software: Theory and Practice) is an event sponsored by the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC) that aggregates, yearly, the main national events of the area, becoming thus a major national conference for software. The main goal is to become a world-class forum to integrate communities from academia, industry and government in order to meet and discuss the latest developments, trends and innovations concerning theory and practice of software.

In 2010, CBSoft integrates, in a single location and date, the following traditional events of the Brazilian community for software development:

  • XXIV Brazilian Symposium on Software Engineering (SBES)
  • XIV Brazilian Symposium on Programming Languages (SBLP)
  • IV Brazilian Symposium on Components, Software Architecture and Software Reuse (SBCARS)

In addition, CBSoft also hosts an international event:

  • VIII Latin American Conference on Pattern Languages of Programming (SugarLoafPlop).

CBSoft is a pioneer initiative and represents an important milestone in the integration of scientific events promoted by SBC. In addition to the major tracks SBES, SBLP, SBCARS and SugarLoafPLoP, the event has a Tools Workshop, a Workshop of Theses and Dissertations, a Forum on Software Engineering Education, an Industry Track, several international keynotes, 5 tutorials, 12 short courses and 7 workshops, dealing with new topics of interest to researchers in the area. Furthermore, CBSoft will provide an exhibition area for companies and organizations interested in promoting their activities in the area.

CBSoft'2010 will be held in one of the most beautiful and receptive cities of Brazil, Salvador - Bahia, from September 27th to October 1st, 2010 at the world-class Bahia Othon Palace Hotel. The event is organized by the Software Engineering Laboratory (LES) from the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA).
