- THE FIFTH ANNUAL OREGON WORKSHOP ON SOFTWARE METRICS
- March 21-23, 1993 at Silver Falls, Oregon
-
- Sponsored by the Portland State University Center for Software
- Quality Research and the Oregon Center for Advanced Technology
- Education.
-
-
- The focus of the Workshop will be on both the application of
- current metrics research to real-life problems, as well as ad-
- vances being made which will provide the foundation for software
- measurement in the future.
-
- AOWSM '93 will be held at the Silver Falls Conference Center. The
- Conference Center is a rustic facility designed for comfort and
- tranquillity in the natural setting of Silver Falls State Park's
- 8,700 acres. The Center is situated in a secluded meadow, sur-
- rounded by lush forests of Hemlock and Douglas Fir. Participants
- will share a semi-private room in one of the Center's lodges or
- cabins to help facilitate interaction between participants. We are
- looking forward to meeting you at the Silver Falls Conference Center
- on March 21-23 for what will certainly be the most exciting event
- of the year for software metric users and researchers.
