Venue: Porto, Portugal Event date: 19 - 21 February, 2017 Regular Papers Paper Submission: October 7, 2016 Authors Notification: December 2, 2016 Camera Ready and Registration: December 16, 2016 Position Papers Paper Submission: November 11, 2016 Authors Notification: December 16, 2016 Camera Ready and Registration: January 5, 2017 Workshops Workshop Proposal: November 10, 2016 Doctoral Consortium Paper Submission: December 14, 2016 Authors Notification: December 28, 2016 Camera Ready and Registration: January 8, 2017 Special Sessions Special Session Proposal: November 28, 2016 Tutorials, Demos and Panels Proposals: January 3, 2017 Scope: The purpose of the International Conference on Model-Driven Engineering and Software Development, MODELSWARD 2017, is to provide a platform for researchers, engineers, academicians as well as industrial professionals from all over the world to present their research results and development activities in using models and model driven engineering techniques for Software Development. Model-Driven Development (MDD) is an approach to the development of IT systems in which models take a central role, not only for analysis of these systems but also for their construction. MDD has emerged from modelling initiatives, most prominently the Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) fostered by the Object Management Group (OMG). In the scope of MDA, a couple of technologies have been developed that became the cornerstones of MDD, like metamodelling and model transformations. MDD relies on languages for defining metamodels, like the Meta-Object Facility (MOF) and Ecore (developed in the scope of the Eclipse Modelling Framework), and transformation specification languages like QVT and ATL. MODELSWARD 2017 will be held in conjunction with ICISSP 2017 and SENSORNETS 2017. Registration to MODELSWARD allows free access to the ICISSP and SENSORNETS conferences (as a non-speaker). CONFERENCE AREAS: Each of these topic areas is expanded below but the sub-topics list is not exhaustive. Papers may address one or more of the listed sub-topics, although authors should not feel limited by them. Unlisted but related sub-topics are also acceptable, provided they fit in one of the following main topic areas: 1. MODELING LANGUAGES, TOOLS AND ARCHITECTURES 2. METHODOLOGIES, PROCESSES AND PLATFORMS 3. APPLICATIONS AND SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT AREA 1: MODELING LANGUAGES, TOOLS AND ARCHITECTURES - Domain-specific Modeling - General-purpose Modeling Languages and Standards - Model Transformation - Syntax and Semantics of Modeling Languages - Meta-modeling: Foundations and Tools - Reasoning about Models - Constraint Modeling and Languages - Model-Driven Architecture - Service Oriented Architectures AREA 2: METHODOLOGIES, PROCESSES AND PLATFORMS - Systems Engineering - Model Transformations and Generative Approaches - Frameworks for Model-Driven Development - Hybrid Multi-Modeling Approaches - Modeling for the Cloud - Software Process Modeling, Enactment and Execution - Workflow Management Systems - Business Process Modeling - Agile Model-Driven Development AREA 3: APPLICATIONS AND SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT - Model-Driven Project Management - Model-based Testing and Validation - Model Execution and Simulation - Model Quality - Executable UML - Meta-Programming - Component-based software engineering - Software Factories and Software Product Lines - Generative Programming KEYNOTE LECTURES MODELSWARD 2017 will have several invited keynote speakers, who are internationally recognized experts in their areas.
