OBJECTIVE
The Testing and Test Control Notation version 3 (TTCN-3) is a well
established and mature testing technology. The flexibility and adaptability
of the language have led to its rapid deployment in the domains of
telecommunication, automotive, medical, aerospace, transportation, and
others. In addition, its use has expanded from functional conformance testing
to cover other testing kinds such as load, performance, or interoperability
testing as well.

Identifying future challenges of testing is and has always been a key concern
to keep TTCN-3 as a modern and innovative testing technology and
thereby protect existing investments in TTCN-3. This year's conference will
address the future of testing explicitly in its theme and wants to raise
awareness to the challenges it imposes on TTCN-3. The theme of T3UC 2011
encourages TTCN-3 users, tool developers, and researchers to present and
discuss their views on how TTCN-3 can address the future challenges of
testing.

T3UC 2011 will be held in Bled, Slovenia - a country at the heart of Europe
with a prospering IT industry - which offers an ideal opportunity
for testing experts, tool providers, and users from the whole world to come
together and share experiences as well as to promote and ensure the
continued progress of TTCN-3.

The 10th edition of T3UC is co-organized by Sintesio, Slovenia and the
European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI). It will feature
tutorials and presentations from members of the TTCN-3 user community as
well as keynotes from invited speakers.
Topics of interest for 30 minute presentations (incl. questions) and 2-4
hour tutorials include (but are not limited to):
* Current and future challenges of testing with TTCN-3, e.g.
o New testing requirements from emerging technologies and new
application areas (e.g. virtualization, cyber-physical systems),
o New development paradigms (e.g. model-driven engineering),
o Usage of TTCN-3 in new development processes (e.g. agile processes,
open source development);
* Practical experiences of using TTCN-3 in industry; achievements from
different application domains such as
o CT (mobile and broadband telecommunication, telematics),
o Intelligent Transport Systems (e.g. vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-
to-roadside communication, toll collection),
o Transportation (automotive, aerospace, rail),
o Medical systems and eHealth,
o IT systems (Web services, cloud computing);
* Experiences from applying TTCN-3 to all kinds of testing such as
conformance, interoperability, performance, load, stress, and security
testing;
* Practical results from integrating TTCN-3 into existing test platforms
and test devices;
* Achievements in integrating software design and testing methods using
TTCN-3;
* Evaluations of TTCN-3 based testing solutions, also in comparison with
other testing technologies;
* Experiences in training and educating in TTCN-3.


SUBMISSION DETAILS
Proposals for 30 minute presentations (incl. questions) and 2-4 hour
tutorials on the topics listed above are solicited. Presentations that cover
the theme of this year's conference are preferred, but other proposals are
welcome, too. A proposal for a presentation or a tutorial shall be not longer
than two A4 pages and must be written based on the appropriate template that
can be found here:
