Call for Workshop Proposals

ICSA 2025 will be held at Odense, Denmark, between 31st March and 4th April 2025. ICSA 2025 workshops aim to provide a forum for researchers and software architects to explore and exchange experiences and R&D results in the field of software architecture. Rising interest and new development in architecting for the next generation of intelligent systems, new explorations, software architecture applications and integration to other areas of software engineering, and new perspectives in software architecture are suitable themes for the ICSA workshop. Workshops may be half-day or one-day events. For ideas of ICSA workshop themes, please refer to past ICSA workshops.

Workshops may be half-day or one-day events. For ideas of ICSA workshop themes, please refer to past ICSA workshops.

Workshop organizers are responsible for submission and selection of papers. Submissions must follow the IEEE Computer Science proceedings format, as workshop proceedings will be published in ICSA 2025 Companion proceedings, and appear in IEEE Xplore Digital Library. Workshop organizers may allow for different types of contributions (e.g., technical, position, and case study papers), but a workshop paper should not exceed a maximum of 10 pages in IEEE format.

Proposal Submission

Workshop proposals must be written in English, not exceed 4 pages in IEEE CS proceedings format, and must be submitted electronically in PDF through EasyChair (track: ICSA 2025 Workshops). Proposals should include:

• Title
• Names and affiliations of organizers
• Past workshops (at ICSA, ECSA, or elsewhere) held by the organizers
• Description of the workshop theme and its relations with the field of Software Architecture
• Goals and objectives for the workshop
• Whether you prefer full-day or half-day option
• Justification in case of proposing different important dates than below

Evaluation Criteria

Workshop proposals will be reviewed based on:

• Potential of the workshop to advance the state of software architecture research and/or practice.
• Timeliness and expected interest in the topic.
• Organizers’ ability to lead a successful workshop.

Important Considerations

• At least one of the workshop organizers needs to register for the conference and attend the workshop in person.
• Workshops will be conducted in a hybrid meeting mode. Presenters of accepted papers need to attend in person, other participants may join online.
