Robert Clarisó and Antonio Vallecillo point me the fruitful imagination of Software Engineers when it comes to name new conferences/workshops (and then people say we are boring!)

Some catchy SE acronyms:

• SEAFOOD (Software Engineering for Offshore and Outsourced Development)
• SHARK (SHAring and Reusing architectural Knowledge)
• QUOVADIS (Quantitative Stochastic Models in the Verification and Design of Software Systems)
• PASTE (Program Analysis for Software Tools and Engineering )
• CHASE (Cooperative and Human Aspects of Software Engineering )
• PLEASE (Product Line Approaches in Software Engineering)
• PESOS — International Workshop on Principles of Engineering Service-Oriented Systems
• KNOWING – KNOWledge engINeering in Global software development – workshop at ICGSE
• TAP – Test And Proofs
• ANT – International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks and Technologies (ANT-2010)
• EASe – Engineering of Autonomic and Autonomous Systems (EASe 2010)
• DisCoTec – International Federated Conferences on Distributed Computing Techniques
• SIROCCO – International Colloquium on Structural Information and Communication Complexity
• PROFES – International Conference on Product Focused Software Development and Process Improvement
• DANCE – International workshop on Distributed Architecture modeling for Novel Component based Embedded systems

and don’t forget the MoDELS conference (NOT an acronym but definitely a very suggestive NAME – how cool IS being able TO say “Sorry I’m busy today, I’m reviewing MoDELS submissions”)

Do you know MORE examples???
