GOALS

Domain specific Engineering (DsE) addresses the tools, methods and technologies that are used to tackle issues of complexity, scalability, quality and maintainability of modern software systems. DsE seeks to use techniques that raise abstraction levels away from general purpose software engineering technologies towards representations that are tailored to particular application domains. The DsE workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners to present and discuss work that addresses issues relating to any aspect of designing, building and using domain-specific tools, methods and technologies.

SCOPE

The DsE Workshop series solicits papers that address any aspect of Domain Specific Engineering including, but not limited to, the following:

  * Methods for DsE

  * Tools and meta-tools for DsE

  * Technologies for DsE. Examples include but are not limited to:

    - UML profiles

    - EMF

    - Models of software product lines

    - Grammarware

    - Ontologies

  * Semantic foundations of DsE

  * Languages for DsE:

    - Requirements languages

    - Design languages

    - Implementation languages

    - Text-based languages

    - Graphical languages

  * DsE case studies

  * Integration of DsE with traditional development approaches

  * Commonality and variability analysis within DsE

PAPER SUBMISSION

All submitted papers will be reviewed by at least three program committee members. Papers must not have been previously published or concurrently submitted elsewhere. Any duplicate submissions will be rejected without review. Research-in-progress and position papers will be considered as well.

Papers must not exceed 10 pages in Springer LNBIP format which is available at http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-791344-0. Submissions should be made through EasyChair at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dsecaise11.

PUBLICATION

The paper selection will be based upon the relevance of a paper to the main topics, on its quality and on the potential to stimulate discussion in the workshop. Accepted papers will be published in Springer LNBIP workshop proceedings. In addition, authors of selected papers will be asked to consider submitting revised version of the papers to a special Journal issue planned by the workshop organizers.
