Call for papers: Applications track
As with any emerging technical discipline, model-based engineering
approaches to software and system development give rise to a unique
set of challenges related to practical application. These include a
very diverse list of issues such as problems of scaling to
multi-domain and geographically distributed teams, difficulties of
integrating new methods and tools into legacy environments, resistance
to culture change, and coping with immature
technologies. Nevertheless, there are numerous practical examples of
industrial application of model-based engineering in which such
problems have been overcome, resulting in successful systems that
clearly demonstrate the viability and the advantages of model-based
methods. Unfortunately, there is still insufficient awareness among
many practitioners of such results and the potential of these methods
for delivering major increases in productivity and product quality.
A primary objective of the MODELS applications track is to provide a
realistic and verifiable picture of the current state-of-the-practice
of model-based engineering. In addition to such experience reports,
papers that describe innovative solutions and concepts stemming from
practical application of model-based methods and tools in industrial,
business and science-driven settings are deemed highly relevant to
this track. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Introducing model-based approaches into organizations
- Experience stories in general (successful and unsuccessful)
- How to scale modeling to large combinations of users,
viewpoints or workflows
- Issues related to limitations, gaps and mismatches in current
modeling standards
- Engineering and managing sets of modeling languages
- Integrating models into business environments such as
development or sales
- Experience with model-based engineering tools and traceability
to/from models
Applications track program committee
Here are the
members
of the Applications track program committee.
Submission process
Online
submission of your Applications track paper is handled by
CyberChair.
The paper length is limited to 15 pages.
Paper submission must conform to the Springer LNCS formatting
guidelines.
All submissions must be original, unpublished, and not submitted
simultaneously for publication elsewhere. They will undergo a thorough
review process by a track-specific committee comprising leading
experts from academia and industry; however, papers that are too long
or violate the LNCS formatting instructions will be rejected.
The reviews of the papers will be provided to the authors around June
17, 2010 and authors will have 48 hours to submit an optional response
limited to 500 words for the purpose of clarification, correction, or
answering questions asked by the reviewers. Responses will be taken
into account during the PC meeting.
Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings by
Springer in the LNCS series. Authors of best papers from the
conference will be invited to revise and submit extended versions of
their papers for a special issue of the Journal on Software and
Systems Modeling (Springer Press).
