TOOLS AND DEMOS
The Tools and Demonstrations (Tools & Demos) Track provides an opportunity for both
researchers and practitioners to present and discuss the most recent advances, ideas,
experiences, and challenges in the field of Software Architecture by means of Tools & Demos
presentations.
Tools & Demos papers are intended to address any aspect of: (i) tool support for software
architectures, or (ii) demonstrate results about the application of architectural approaches.
Papers submitted to this track can belong to two distinct categories:
• Tool papers: These papers deal with the development and evaluation of tools to support
software architecture. They may present new tools, extensions to existing tools, or evaluations
of the effectiveness of tools. The aim is to provide a platform for the exchange of innovative
tools and techniques that help design, implement and analyze software architectures.
• Demo papers: These papers will demonstrate concepts, techniques or systems related to
software architectures. The focus is on presenting practical applications and implementations
of architectural approaches. Demo papers may include live demonstrations, prototypes or
simulations that emphasize the benefits and potential of specific architecture solutions.
Both Tool Papers and Demo Papers contribute to the advancement of the field by providing
insights, experiences and practical solutions related to software architectures. Tools and
Demos should not be used as a means for commercial advertisement.
We will strive to keep ECSA’s tradition to select the Best Tools & Demo Paper, awarded during
the conference. The selection of the best tool and demo paper will be made based on the votes
of the attendants of the conference.
Submissions of Tools & Demos papers should describe the work, how it relates to other
industrial or research efforts, including references, what the expected benefits are, a video of
the tool or demo (if one exists), and the web-page and/or open-source repository for the tool
(if one exists). All submissions must conform to the LNCS template and must not exceed 8
pages.
Tools & Demos submissions should provide a link to a video, with audio commentary, of a
maximum of ten minutes in length, with high resolution (e.g., details of the tool’s functionality
should be clearly visible). The video must be uploaded on a server (e.g., YouTube, Google
Drive, Dropbox), and the link must be included in the submission for its evaluation (as a
footnote on the first page of the submission or as links after the abstract of the submission).
In addition, it is possible to provide open material, e.g., source code and/or a running instance
of the tool. The links to the video and (if applicable) the additional material should be included
in the contribution after the abstract and before the introduction sections.
Paper submissions must be made electronically via the online EasyChair submission site for the
ECSA 2024 conference, selecting the “Tools & Demos Track”:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ecsa2025 .
The selection criteria of Tools & Demos papers will consider their originality, relevance for the
ECSA audience, technical soundness, and presentation quality. Each submission will be
evaluated by at least two PC members, in a single-step review process.
The accepted papers will be included in the ECSA 2025 companion volume to be published in Springer LNCS series.

Dear All,
We are excited to invite you to an upcoming DFIR Stream 0xE webinar:
Title: “Identifying Fraudulent CAPTCHA Solvers Using Network
Propagation Analysis”
Presenters:
-Martynas Buožis — Information Security Architect, Amadeus Data Processing GmbH
-Umberto Fontana — PhD Candidate, Telecom SudParis & Amadeus IT Group
Abstract:
Malicious actors often use CAPTCHA Farms to bypass bot protection,
enabling fraud such as inventory denial and SMS pumping. These farms
cleverly mirror IP addresses and client fingerprints, making
traditional detection methods ineffective. Meanwhile, their
CAPTCHA-solving times are indistinguishable from legitimate users.
In this talk, our speakers will present a novel technique for
uncovering the use of CAPTCHA Farms by analyzing network propagation
times. By comparing observed delays with the geographic distances
implied by IP addresses, this approach aims to statistically identify
suspicious patterns.
- Date & Time: Tuesday, March 25, 2:00 – 3:00 pm (GMT+00:00)
- Location: Online (Pre-registration required)
- Event Registration Link: https://www.acfti.org/news-events/dfir-stream-0xe

RESEARCH PAPERS
ECSA 2025 seeks four types of papers for the research track:
• Research papers (max. 16 pages in LNCS style) which describe novel contributions to software
architecture research (submissions should cover work that has a sound scientific/technological
basis and has been validated)
• Education and training papers (max. 16 pages in LNCS style) that address methodologies,
experiences and best practices for teaching and training software architecture
• Experience reports (max. 16 pages in LNCS style) that cover innovative implementations,
novel applications, insightful performance results and experience in applying software
architecture research advances to practical situations and systems
• Short papers (max. 8 pages in LNCS style) that present novel and preliminary work-in-
progress or challenges in a topic of software architecture research, education, and training.
Submissions must have a sound basis, but not necessarily be validated in full.
All submitted papers will undergo a rigorous double-blind peer review process. Papers will be
selected based on originality, quality, soundness, and relevance. All contributions must be
original, not published, accepted, or submitted for publication elsewhere. Contravention of this
concurrent submission policy will be deemed a serious breach of ethics, and appropriate action
will be taken in all such cases. Plagiarism checking will be conducted and any paper reporting
more than a 20% match with published work will be desk-rejected.
To note is that research papers, education and training papers, and experience reports that are
rejected in their categories may be re-evaluated as short papers only if the committee decides
on rejection of the full paper on the basis that it presents preliminary work.
The research track of ECSA 2025 supports an Open Science policy. We encourage all
contributing authors to disclose (anonymized and curated) data/artifacts to increase
reproducibility. Note that sharing research artifacts is not mandatory for submission or
acceptance. Upon submission to the research track, authors are required:
• To make their artifacts available to the program committee (via a link to an anonymous
repository) and provide instructions on how to access this data in the paper; or
• To include in the paper an explanation as to why this is not possible or desirable; and
• To indicate why they do not intend to make their data or study materials publicly available
upon acceptance, if that is the case
While sharing research artifacts is not mandatory for submission or acceptance, authors are
required to include a Data Availability statement after the Conclusions section in a section
named "Data Availability". This statement should explain whether or not data and/or artifacts
are available or how they could be accessed (or not). Upon acceptance, papers with Open
Science artifacts (e.g., data, tools, etc.) will be invited to upload their artifacts into the ECSA

The theme of the 16th Biannual Conference of the Italian SIGCHI Chapter
(CHItaly 2025) is “Technologies and Methodologies of Human-Computer
Interaction in the Third Millennium”. It invites us to reflect on how
technological advances continue to redefine our interactions with the
digital world.
Over the last two decades, the field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI)
has evolved rapidly, adapting to innovations that have transformed everyday
life. Integrating Artificial Intelligence, Augmented and Virtual Reality,
Robotics, voice interfaces, wearable devices, and the Internet of Things
has brought HCI to the forefront of scientific inquiry, offering novel
possibilities and complex challenges. These technologies are not only
changing how we use digital systems but also influencing the ways we think,
learn, communicate, and interact on a personal, social, and organizational
level.
This year’s conference aims to inspire a comprehensive dialogue on how
these technologies are reshaping the landscape of HCI and redefining the
boundaries of human capabilities. Participants will be invited to engage
with questions surrounding ethical implications, accessibility,
inclusivity, user experience, and the sustainability of emerging
technologies. The theme encourages contributors to share insights on
methodologies that adapt to these changes, from user-centred design
practices to innovative evaluation methods for complex, adaptive systems.
We invite submissions of workshops that contribute to the field of
Human-Computer Interaction (HCI).

CALL FOR EXTENDED ABSTRACTS
Second Workshop on Stimulating Cognitive Engagement in Hybrid Decision-Making: Friction, Reliance, and Biases
Co-located with the 4th International Conference on Hybrid Human-Artificial Intelligence (HHAI25)
June 10, 2025 | Pisa, Italy (in-person)
https://sites.google.com/view/frictional-ai/home <https://sites.google.com/view/frictional-ai/home>
--------------------------------------------------
**Workshop Overview**
Building on the success of its first edition at HHAI 2024, the full-day workshop on "Stimulating Cognitive Engagement in Hybrid Decision-Making: Friction, Reliance, and Biases" advances the exploration of over-reliance and biases in Human-AI Interaction. Central to this discussion are approaches that intentionally introduce moments of cognitive effort and reflection into AI interactions to prevent passive or automatic reliance. While conventional AI design prioritises efficiency and seamlessness, this workshop invites participants to examine AI systems that strategically slow down decision-making when necessary to mitigate automation bias, cognitive offloading, and over-trust, ultimately fostering accuracy, responsibility, and human oversight.
Such friction-in-design encompasses strategies that encourage users to reflect before acting, such as requiring justification before accepting AI recommendations, displaying confidence scores with uncertainty visualisations, or using explainability mechanisms that slow decision-making to reinforce human oversight.
This workshop fosters interdisciplinary dialogue across AI research, cognitive science, HCI, and governance to ensure AI systems empower users rather than encourage unchecked reliance. The program will feature keynote presentations by leading experts in academia and industry, author presentations, and interactive discussions to advance the discourse on cognitively engaging and responsible AI design.
Keynote speakers include:
• Prof. Federico Cabitza (University of Milano-Bicocca, Italy) – Expert in AI-assisted decision-making and medical AI.
• Bart Van Leeuwen (Fire Services Expert, Netherlands) – Expert in human factors and situational awareness in high-risk environments.
**Topics of Interest**
We welcome contributions from researchers, practitioners, and policymakers on topics including, but not limited to:
• Design Principles for Cognitive Engagement
• Measuring and mitigating automation bias, algorithmic aversion, and cognitive offloading
• Ethical and Governance Perspectives on Friction-in-Design
• Applications, Case Studies and Experimental Findings
We encourage submissions from a variety of disciplines, including AI, HCI, cognitive science, law, philosophy, and beyond.
**Submission Details**
• Types of Submissions: Extended Abstracts (500-1,000 words)
• Format: CEURART-WS style preferred
• Submission Portal: https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/FrictionalAIWorkshop2025 <https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/FrictionalAIWorkshop2025>
• Proceedings: All accepted papers will be published in the HHAI 2025 Workshop Proceedings on CEUR-WS.
Authors of accepted contributions are required to attend the workshop in-person and register to the HHAI25 conference (single-day registration available, details TBA).
