Hi,



Just an administrative matter. I am on the program committee, but I cannot
find my name in the list below.

Could you add me to the list ?

Call for papers

ECMDA-FA 2009

Fifth European Conference on
Model-Driven Architecture
Foundations and Applications

University of Twente, Enschede, The Netherlands

23-26 June 2009

http://ecmda2009.utwente.nl

Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) is an initiative proposed by the
Object Management Group (OMG) for platform-independent software
development. It promotes the use of models in the specification,
design, analysis, synthesis, deployment, and evolution of complex
software systems.

ECMDA-FA is dedicated to advancing the state of knowledge and
fostering the industrialisation of the MDA methodology. Its focus
is on engaging key figures of research and industry, in Europe and
elsewhere, in a dialogue which will result in a stronger, more
efficient industry, producing more reliable software on the basis
of state-of-the-art research results. The 2009 conference will be
again organised in two tracks dealing with the foundations and
applications of MDA. There will be additional workshops, tools and
poster exhibitions on these subjects.

ECMDA-FA 2009 is proud to host the following keynote speakers:

– David Harel, The Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel
– Tim Trew, NXP Semiconductors, The Netherlands
– Akira Ohata, Toyota Motors, Japan

Topics

ECMDA has two separate paper tracks, one for research papers
(Track F) and one for industrial papers (Track A). Each track will
be judged differently. The academic track will be reviewed using
common academic review guidelines, focusing on novel contributions
to knowledge. Papers in the industrial track may be shorter and
will be judged against special guidelines, as described below.

Research Papers on Foundations of MDA (Academic Track F)

In this track, we are soliciting papers presenting original
research on all aspects of MDA. Typical but not exclusive topics
of interest are:

- Metamodeling foundations and tools
– Model Transformation and Code Generation
– Reasoning about Models
– Model Navigation
- Model Synchronization and Consistency
– Modeling of Requirements, Architectures, Platforms
– Reverse Engineering
- Modeling for Testing and Validation
– Model Execution and Simulation
– Modeling of Service Qualities and of Safety and Security
– Aspect Modeling
– Software Process Modeling, Enactment and Execution

The research papers should be between 12 and 16 pages long, in A4
size compliant with the LNCS paper style and should be submitted
as PDF. They will be evaluated on novelty and theoretical
contribution. No simultaneous submission to other publication
outlets (either a conference or a journal) is allowed; any
concurrent submission will result in the immediate rejection of
the paper. The proceedings are planned to be published in a
Springer LNCS volume.

Industrial Papers on Applications of MDA (Industrial Track A)

In this track, we are soliciting papers representing the views and
experience of industrial players in MDA and of MDA users. In
particular, we are looking for papers that set requirements on the
foundations, methods and tools for MDA. We are also seeking
experience reports or case studies on the application, successes
or current shortcomings of MDA. Quantitative results are
appreciated. Industrial papers on all application areas of MDA are
welcomed and may focus, for example, on one of the following:

– MDA for Complex Systems and Systems of Systems
- MDA for Embedded Systems and Real-Time Systems
– MDA for High-Integrity Systems, Safety-Critical, and
Security-Critical Systems
– MDA in the Automotive, Aerospace, Telecommunications,
Electronics Industries
– Comparative Studies of MDA Methods and Tools
– MDA Technology Adoption, Development and Roll-Out Processes
– Metrics for MDA Development
– MDA Training
– MDA for Legacy Systems
- MDA for Systems Engineering
– Model Verification and Quality-Driven System Development
– MDA and Multi-Domain Modeling Languages
– MDA and Component-Based Software Engineering
– MDA and Service-Oriented Architectures
– MDA and Business Process Modeling

The length of an industrial paper should be between 6 and 12
pages. Industrial papers will be evaluated on practical
feasibility, maturity, and industrial relevance. No simultaneous
submission to other publication outlets (conference or journal) is
allowed. The proceedings are planned to be published in the same
Springer LNCS volume as the proceedings of the Foundations track.

Submission and selection

You are asked to submit your contribution through the web site;
see http://ecmda2009.utwente.nl/submit. Submission occurs in two
phases; please submit an abstract by January 30, 2009, and a full
version by February 6, 2009. For further dates see
http://ecmda2009.utwente.nl/dates.
