ICMT 2010: Call for Papers

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON MODEL TRANSFORMATION (ICMT) 2010 Theory and Practice of Model Transformations Co-located with TOOLS Europe 2010 June 28-July 2 2010 - Malaga, Spain http://www.model-transformation.org/ICMT2010/ Overview Modelling is now essential for dealing with the complexity of IT systems during their development and maintenance processes. As models grow in use for developing IT systems, transformations between models grow in importance. Model transformations allow the definition and implementation of operations on models, and also provide a chain that can enable the automated development of a system from its corresponding models. Model transformations require specialized support in order to realize their full potential; their foundations, semantics, structuring mechanisms, and properties (e.g., modularity, composability, and parameterization) all demand further study. Furthermore, model transformations do not sit in isolation, and require methodological support to integrate into existing software development practises. ICMT is the premier forum for the presentation of new results in the area of model transformations. As a working conference, ICMT has a strong practical focus, with research papers, industrial reports, tool presentations, panels, and invited talks from renowned speakers. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to languages, scalability, reuse, semantics, implementation, generation, merging, maintenance, evolution, methodologies, tools, case studies of/for model transformations. Submission guidelines All contributions will be subject to a rigorous selection process by the international Program Committee, with an emphasis on originality, practicality and overall quality. Every paper will be reviewed by at least 3 committee members. All submissions should follow the LNCS format and should include the authors' names, affiliations and contact details. Further instructions for submitting a paper will be available at http://www.model-transformation.org/ICMT2010/. As in previous editions of ICMT, we intend to publish proceedings in the Springer LNCS series. We will also be awarding a prize for the best paper. Important dates Paper submission: 28 January 2010 Notification of acceptance: 19 March 2010 Camera-ready version due: 5 April 2010 Conference dates: 28 June-2 July 2010 Chairs Programme chair: Laurence Tratt Conference chair: Martin Gogolla Publicity chair: Dennis Wagelaar Steering committee: Jean Bézivin, Jeff Gray, Richard Paige, Alfonso Pierantonio, Antonio Vallecillo Programme committee Andreas Rummler, Andreas Winter, Andy Schürr, Antonio Cicchetti, Bernhard Rumpe, Bran Selic, Charles Consel, Daniel Varro, Davide Di Ruscio, Dimitrios Kolovos, Eelco Visser, Esperanza Marcos, Francesco Parisi-Presicce, Frédéric Jouault, Gabriele Taentzer, Gerti Kappel, Gregor Engels, Günter Kniesel, Howard Ho, Ivan Kurtev, Ivan Porres, Jens Weber, Jesús García-Molina, Jim Steel, Jon Whittle, Jordi Cabot, Kelly Androutsopoulos, Luciano Baresi, Marc Pantel, Nicolas Rouquette, Orlando Avila-Garcia, Piero Fraternali, Reiko Heckel, Stuart Kent, Thomas Kühne, Tony Clark, Vicente Pelechano, Vinay Vkulkarni, Yasemin Topaloglu, Zhenjiang Hu To contribute to SEWORLD, send your submission to mailto:seworld@sigsoft.org http://www.sigsoft.org/seworld provides more information on SEWORLD as well as a complete archive of messages posted to the list.
