SAGAI’25 - Fraunhofer IESE

Workshop / March 31, 2025 - April 01, 2025

SAGAI 2025

Generative AI has become a pervasive topic in recent years, attracting the attention of researchers and practitioners. As the software engineering community begins to explore it, there is a pressing need for developments and contributions from the software architecture community. SAGAI'25, the 1st International Workshop on Software Architecture and Generative AI creates a dedicated space for discussing and advancing the field. SAGAI aims to cover both the development time and runtime aspects of the intersection between generative AI and software architecture.

The SAGAI'25 Workshop is co-located with the 22nd IEEE International Conference on Software Architecture (ICSA'25) in Odense (Denmark), and will take place in a date to be defined between March 31 and April 1, 2025.

CALL FOR PAPERS

This workshop aims to establish a community of researchers focused on exploring novel ways of using generative AI to improve both development time and runtime aspects of software architectures. The workshop objectives include:

To provide a forum for scientists and practitioners within the software architecture community to reflect on the potential and limitations of generative AI in software architecture;
To disseminate early results in the field of generative AI for software architecture;
To explore how generative AI can support different audiences (e.g., software architects, developers, requirements engineers, and end users) across architecture activities (e.g., identification of architecture significant requirements, architectural design, evaluation, implementation, and governance).
To stimulate the investigation of generative AI at runtime in software architectures to address quality attributes such as adaptability, fault tolerance, interoperability, operability, and recoverability, among others.

TOPICS OF INTEREST

Approaches to use generative AI in architecture design and evaluation
Generative AI to support architecture knowledge management
Generative AI to support the elaboration of architecture scenarios descriptions
Generative AI to support the elaboration of architecture evaluation protocols
Integration and interaction of generative AI methods and tools with existing state-of-the practice tools
Improvement of context knowledge used by co-pilots and LLMs in multiple contexts
Approaches to use generative AI in modernization of legacy systems
