ACSOS was founded in 2020 as a merger of the IEEE International Conference on Autonomic Computing (ICAC) and the IEEE International Conference on Self-Adaptive and Self-Organizing Systems (SASO). For more up-to-date news, follow us at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://twitter.com/ACSOSconf" moz-do-not-send="true">https://twitter.com/ACSOSconf</a>!
Traditionally, ACSOS only called for research papers. This year, for the first time, we also call for artifacts: software or data, which can be reused by the ACSOS community to evaluate novel approaches or to analyze interesting phenomena. Thus, in particular we solicit the submission of two types of artifacts: multi-agent simulators or comparable software and data sets. Our goal is to establish a collection of reusable evaluation setups and case studies.

</span></tt></p>
<tt>A</tt><tt>rtifact submissions need to fulfill the following
criteria:<br>
<br>
- The code or data needs to be publicly available for download
under an open source license (e.g., on GitHub under GPL).<br>
<br>
- There has to be a readme file with detailed instructions on how
to install, run and configure the artifact.<br>
<br>
- If an installation is required, scripts have to be provided,
which automate the build and install process.<br>
<br>
- The code should run on all three major platforms (Mac, Win,
Linux) either natively or using Docker or a VM.</tt><tt><tt><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-weight: 700; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">
*** Short Paper Requirement ***
</span></tt><br>
Alongside the code or data, a short paper summarizing the artifact
has to be submitted.<br>
<br>
This paper has to fulfill the following criteria:</tt><tt><br>
<br>
- Page limit: 2-4 pages.<br>
<br>
- The paper has to adhere to the template used for conference
papers as it will be published in the proceedings of the
conference.<br>
<br>
- Besides a summary of the artifact itself, the paper has to point
out how it can be reused by the community in the future.<br>
<br>
</tt><br>
<tt><tt><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-weight: 700; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">*** Evaluation ***
</span></tt>Submitted artifacts will be thoroughly evaluated by multiple
reviewers according to the following artifact evaluation process
(AEP):<br>
<br>
- Initial Review: Each artifact will be tested by at least three
artifact PC members and is evaluated according to the following
criteria: operationality (does it work), ease of setup,
configurability, quality of documentation, potential for
reusability, and quality of code.<br>
<br>
- Artifact revision: Authors will be notified whether their
artifact is accepted as is or if minor revisions have to be done
prior to publication. <br>
<br>
- Artifact publication: Accepted artifacts will be listed on a
special ACSOS artifact website, which shall serve as primary
source for case studies and evaluation setups in the future, and
the accompanying short papers will be published within the
proceedings of the conference.<br>
The key benefit of investing the considerable work required to get
an artifact published at ACSOS is the constant reuse of it by the
community, which leads to continuously growing citations of the
accompanying paper. <br>
