The role of software architecture in the engineering of software-intensive applications has become more and more important and widespread. Component-based and service-oriented architectures are key artifacts to the design, development and evolution of all software systems. The European Conference on Software Architecture is the premier European conference dedicated to the field of software architecture, covering all architectural aspects of software and service engineering. ECSA 2013 will continue the series of successful events of the last years.
