The purpose of the ICSOFT-PT 2013, the 8th International Conference on Software Paradigm Trends, is to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested on information technology
and software development. This eighth edition will focus in priority on the four main paradigms that have been intensively studied during the last decade for software and system design, namely: Models, Aspects, Services and Context. These four paradigms will
drive the design and development of future software systems encompassing a large number of research topics and applications: from programming issues to the more abstract theoretical aspects of software engineering; from models and services to the most complex
management information systems; Distributed systems, ubiquity, data interoperability; context understanding and many other topics are included in the scope of ICSOFT-PT.
CONFERENCE AREAS:
