Any topic of interest for one of the conferences that took place within STAF 2016 was highly welcomed. The organizers would like to thank the PC members who actively participated in the discussion. Thanks go also to the participating students who also asked questions and gave constructive feedback to the other PhD candidates. Very special thanks to Tanja Mayerhofer for handling the logistics.
Preface to the STAF Projects Showcase The aim of the Projects Showcase event at STAF 2016 was to provide an opportunity for researchers and practitioners involved in ongoing or completed research projects related to foundations and applications of software technologies to share results, experiences, ideas, on-going work, and knowledge that can lead to fruitful inter-project collaboration. The call for papers of the event solicited contributions disseminating the objectives and results of national and international research projects, including outcomes of speci c deliverables, advances beyond the state of the art, overall innovation potential, exploitation approach and (expected) impact, marketing value, barriers and obstacles.
Seven papers were accepted for presentation and publication in the proceedings of the event, which reported on di erent types of national, international and in-house research and development projects. We would like to acknowledge the hard work of the members of the Program Committee and the contribution of the authors of submitted papers to the success of this event.
