  This volume contains the extended abstracts of the contributions presented at
EclipseIT 2013, the 8th workshop of the Italian Eclipse Community, hosted by
the Computer Science Department of the University of Milan (Crema Campus) on
September 19-20, 2013. Although Eclipse was initially designed as an integrated
development environment (IDE) for object-oriented application development,
today it represents an open development platform comprised of extensible
frameworks, tools and runtimes for building, deploying and managing software.
Around Eclipse, an international live community continuously works on improving
the framework and on promoting the use of Eclipse. That happens also in Italy.
This workshop is, indeed, the eighth yearly meeting of the Italian Eclipse
Community which includes universities, public institutions and industries,
researchers and practitioners, students and professionals, all joined by the
interest in experimenting, extending, and supporting the Eclipse platform. The
special topic of this edition is the Software cooperative development for
mobile applications. Two tutorials are offered on this theme: (1) Sviluppo di
applicazioni enterprise per il mobile con IBM Jazz, Eclipse e Worklight by
Ferdinando Gorga from IBM, and (2) Uso di Eclipse per lo sviluppo cooperativo
del software, by Paolo Maresca of the University of Naples, Federico II.
