*** Call for Papers ***
Model-Driven Methods Track
13th International Conference on the Quality of Information and
Communications Technology
September 9-11, 2020, Faro, Portugal
https://2020.quatic.org https://2020.quatic.org/thematic-tracks/model-driven-methods

*** Scope ***

Model-driven engineering (MDE) refers to a broad range of approaches
where models play an indispensable role in software development.
Modeling promotes higher level of abstraction, therefore reducing
complexity of software development and promoting communication among the
several stakeholders involded in the lifecycle of software systems
(e.g., product managers, analysts, designers, programmers, operators to
name just a few). MDE initiatives, such as Domain-Specific Modeling
(DSM), make claims of increased quality and productivity by separating
business and application logic from underlying platform technology,
transforming models to other models (e.g., for validation and
verification) and automating code generation (ranging from system
skeletons to complete, deployable products). However, while quality
assurance is a well-known topic in “traditional” Software Engineering,
less is known on how to assess quality across the MDE lifecycle
(encompassing new activities such as metamodel-based language
engineering or transformation engineering such as template-based code
generation), as well as on the effective improvements obtained by
applying MDE itself including the quality of the MDE technologies.

We seek novel contributions ranging from conceptual frameworks over
tool supported methodologies to case studies and experiments on how to
leverage ICT systems quality with MDE techniques, as well as how to
induce quality assurance in the MDE lifecycle itself.

*** Topics ***

The suggested topics of interest include, but are not restricted to:
-) Quality models in the MDE context
-) Quality assurance in the MDE development flow
-) Evaluating the quality of models, metamodels, and transformations
-) Models’ traceability throughout the complete lifecycle including
operations
-) Measuring the improvement achieved with an MDE approach, specially
regarding quality
-) Quality in the context of model-driven service oriented systems
-) Case studies and lessons learned in applying MDE in industry
-) Empirical studies on the quality of MDE processes
-) Studying the quality of MDE technologies
-) Modeling and analyzing quality standards
-) Role of MDE in the quality evaluation of software maintenance,
evolution and migration scenarios

*** QUATIC 2020 ***

The International Conference on the Quality of Information and
Communications Technology (QUATIC) is a leading scientific conference
that
gathers experts from industry and academia to exchange ideas and
approaches
regarding all quality aspects in ICT systems engineering and
management.
QUATIC'2020 is coming to Faro, capital of Algarve, the well-known
region in
the south of Portugal.
