Software is becoming more and more aware of its current executioncontext. Decisions traditionally made at design time are moved at run-time to enhance the services offered by the software to its users. Furthermore, software reasons about the execution environments and its internal status to enhance the functionality provided by its users. Some of the keywords that characterize the software today are: context-aware, dynamic, autonomous, smart, adaptive, self-managed. In this context, the Context-aware, Autonomous, and Smart Architectures (CASA) workshop aims to address the issues and challenges raised by the design, implementation, and evaluation of software systems characterized by the above mentioned keywords. Novel design and development approaches are needed to face the new issues raised by such systems. New solutions are expected to address properly the trade-offs among the various quality attributes characterizing these systems. Or, existing architectural solutions should be adapted and improved to meet the evolving and dynamic requirements ofcontext-aware, autonomous, and smart systems.
The workshop aims to bring together software engineers, computer scientists, researchers, practitioners, and educators to discuss and exchange results, casestudies, experiences, novel approaches and visionary ideas concerning software architectures for context-aware, autonomous, and smart solutions.

Publication
Submissions must follow the LNCS style. ECSA 2022 will use a two-step process for workshop proceedings. Online proceedings (available before the conference) will include all the accepted papers to the workshops and will be published online on the ECSA 2022 web page (no proceedings). After the conference, we will organize post-proceedings of selected and extended papers of workshops that will be published in a Springer LNCS volume (up to 16 pages).
For specific submission guidelines, please refer to the workshop page.
Venue
The workshop will be co-located with the 16th European Conference on Software Architecture (ECSA'22) in Prague, Czech Republic.
