Preface
The present book includes extended and revised versions of a set of selected papers
fromthe16thInternationalConferenceonSoftwareTechnologies(ICSOFT2021),held
asanonlineeventduetotheCOVID-19pandemic,duringJuly6–8,2021.
ICSOFT 2021 received 117 paper submissions from authors in 36 countries, of
which9%wereincludedinthisbook.
The papers were selected by the event chairs and their selection was based on
a number of criteria that include the classifications and comments provided by the
ProgramCommitteemembers,andtheassessmentsprovidedbythesessionchairsandthe

extendedversionoftheirpapershavingatleast30%innovativematerial.Therevisions
andextensionswereverifiedbytheeventchairsduringthisfinalstage.
The purpose of the ICSOFT conference series, which started in 2006, is to bring
together researchers, engineers, and practitioners interested in software technologies.
Theconferenceareasare“SoftwareEngineeringandSystemsDevelopment”,“Software
SystemsandApplications”,and“FoundationalandTriggerTechnologies”.
Thepapersincludedinthisbookcontributetotheunderstandingofrelevanttrends
ofcurrentresearchonsoftwaretechnologies,including
– Model-driven software engineering approaches for cyber-physical systems and
InternetofThings(IoT)systems;
– Artificial intelligence applications for optimization and coordination of complex
softwaresystems;
– Coderefactoringmethodsforsoftwareenergyconsumptionandsoftwarearchitecture
recovery;
– Frameworks and methodologies for context-aware reconfigurable software
applicationsandsocio-technicalsystems;and
– Software engineering tools for automated software engineering and software
evaluation.
