Keynote

"From Model Evolution to Evolution Models", by Gerti Kappel, Institute for Software Technology and Interactive Systems at the Vienna University of Technology, heading the Business Informatics Group.

Inspired by the seminal paper on "Model Transformations? Transformation Models!" [1] we will have a fresh look on the evolution of model evolution. Model evolution is more and more seen as part of change management in general with change as first class principle in the whole software product lifecycle. Thus, a descriptive notion of evolution in terms of evolution models is necessary. In this talk, we will shed some light on current research endeavors pathing the way to a more systematic management of evolution.

Gerti Kappel is a full professor at the Institute for Software Technology and Interactive Systems at the Vienna University of Technology, heading the Business Informatics Group. Until 2001, she was a full professor of computer science and head of the Department of Information Systems at the Johannes Kepler University of Linz. She received the Ms and PhD degrees in computer science and business informatics from the University of Vienna and Vienna University of Technology in 1984 and 1987, respectively. From 1987 to1989 she was a visiting researcher at Centre Universitaire d'Informatique, Geneva, Switzerland. She has been involved in national and international joint projects, both governmental and industry funded, as well as sponsored by the EU. From 2004 to 2007, she was also dean of student affairs for business informatics.

Submission

Both research papers, experience papers and tool presentations are solicited. Papers describing novel applications and making significant research contributions are of particular interest. Contributions must be written in English, adhere to the Springer LNCS format, and be submitted through EasyChair (a link will be provided soon):

  1. Long papers (max. 10 pages): These contributions should address novel research ideas, challenging problems, or practical contributions in the domain of model-driven software evolution.
  2. Short papers (max. 6 pages):
    • Industrial feedback: industrial participants may contribute with experience or case studies about managing or putting into practice model-driven software evolution solutions in an industrial setting;
    • Position papers: young researchers may submit extended abstracts about their work in progress in the context of model-driven software evolution;
    • Visionary papers: these contributions take a visionary stance to the field describing long term ambitions, visionary technological advancements, paradig- matic changes and research agenda's. Note that the ideas presented must be clearly positioned, adequately thought out, and sufficiently documented.
    • Tool presentations: these submissions present (experience with) tools (which may be either research prototypes or commercial tools) that are fully/partially dedicated to supporting the evolution issues encountered in model based development.

The proceedings will be published on CEUR and will be available on this website since Sept 19, 2014.
