This summer, young software engineering researchers from around the world will be gathering in Portugal.

For a week of intense confrontation with the latest developments in their respective fields. Prominent senior researchers will be lecturing on topics such as model-driven engineering and evolution, database and programme transformation, domain-specific languages, and software product lines. In a series of technology presentations, these concepts will be demonstrated in concrete domains, such as software composition, model transformation, and optimising compilation.

The Software Improvement Group is sponsoring and co-organising this second edition of the International Summer School on Generative and Transformational Techniques in Software Engineering (GTTSE 2007).

"The sponsorship of the Software Improvement Group emphasises the fact that the GTTSE summer school is both practical and future-directed. The excellent group of speakers that we have managed to bring together in this year's event represents the cutting-edge of software engineering research." -- Dr. Ralf Lämmel, Microsoft Corporation, Program Chair of GTTSE 2007.

The summer school will take place between July 2 and 7, 2007. Its proceedings will be published in the Lecture Notes on Computer Science (LNCS) series of the scientific publisher Springer-Verlag. More details of the summer school can be found on the website.
