Background and Goals
The Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) is an approach to the development of IT systems fostered by the Object Management Group (OMG) that separates the specification of the system functionality from its implementation on a particular platform. A common pattern of MDA development is to define a platform-independent model (PIM) of a system, and to apply (parameterised) transformations to this PIM to obtain one or more platform-specific models (PSMs). In this context, PIMs are reusable models that consolidate the application development effort. Furthermore, MDA advocates the use of OMG core technology, especially the Meta-Object Facility (MOF) and MOF-compliant languages such as UML and CWM. In Model-Driven Development the MDA principles and technologies are applied in the development of software systems.
MDD is already around for some years and is about to become commodity in software development due to its benefits (reduction on development costs, improvement of software quality, reduction of maintenance costs and the support for controlled evolution of IT systems). MDD has also been applied in many application areas, such as real-time and embedded systems, and telecommunication systems, and, more recently, to the development and integration of enterprise information systems. However, the MDD research community is wishing to explore the bounds of MDD, by investigating new applications areas and combinations with other emerging technologies, like, for example, pervasive context-aware systems, Semantic web, Semantic web services, SOA and ontologies. This workshop aims at fostering the further development and application of MDD techniques. This is the second edition of this workshop, in which we want to build upon the very successful first edition last year in Milan.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- MDD and Enterprise Information Systems
- MDD and Service-Oriented Architectures
- MDD and Semantic Web
- MDD and Semantic Web services
- MDD and Ontologies
- Domain Specific Languages (DSL) based on MDA technologies
- Model Transformation Languages and Tools
- Mapping, Matching and Transformation Techniques
- MDD and Databases
- MDD and Business Process Modelling
- MDD for reverse-engineering and software maintenance
- MDD for pervasive and context-aware systems
- MDD and CBS (component-based s/w) deployment

Paper Submission
The workshop welcomes three types of submissions:
- Full papers describing novel ideas on MDD at either a practical or theoretical level. The length of a full paper should not exceed 12 pages (7000 words).
- Short or position papers describing work in progress or an author's position regarding the current MDD practice and/or its future trends. The maximum length of a position paper is 5 pages.
- Demonstrations of a particular prototype approach or tool applicable to MDD. The demonstration should be accompanied by a paper with a maximum length of 4 pages. The demonstration will be shown during the workshop.
Remarks about the on-line submission procedure:
1. A "double-blind" paper evaluation method will be used. To facilitate that, the authors are kindly requested to produce and provide the paper,
WITHOUT any reference to any of the authors. This means that is necessary to remove the authors personal details, the acknowledgements section and any reference that may disclose the authors identity.
2. The web submission procedure automatically sends an acknowledgement, by e-mail, to the contact author.
All papers will be reviewed on the basis of relevance, clarity and technical quality. At least one author should attend the workshop to present the paper.
Prospective authors are invited to submit papers in any of the topics listed above.
Instructions for preparing the manuscript (in Word and Latex formats) are available at the conference
Paper Templates web page. Please also check the web page with the
Submission Guidelines.
Papers should be submitted electronically via the web-based submission system at:
http://www.insticc.org/Primoris
Publications
All accepted papers will be published by INSTICC Press in the workshop proceedings book, under an ISBN reference, and on CD-ROM support. The procedings will be available at the time of the workshop.
Registration Information
At least one author of an accepted paper must register for the workshop. If the registration fees are not received by April 21, 2010, the paper will not be published in the workshop proceedings book.
