Technology, and AMAKOTA Ltd.

======================================================

Chair:
Dr. Boris Shishkov, IICREST, Bulgaria

Keynote Lecturers:
Prof. Dr. Erik Proper, CRP Henri Tudor, Luxembourg (Title: Exploring the 
Challenges of Modeling Landscapes)
Prof. Dr. Roel Wieringa, University of Twente, The Netherlands (Title: 
The Structure of Goal Models in Requirements Engineering)

Symposium theme: GENERIC BUSINESS MODELING PATTERNS AND SOFTWARE RE-USE

======================================================

BMSD is a leading international discussion and knowledge dissemination
forum that brings together researchers and practitioners interested in: 
(i) Modeling in general and in particular - Conceptual Modeling, Goal 
Modeling, Value Modeling, Business/Enterprise Modeling, Process 
Modeling, Model-Driven Engineering;
(ii) Enterprise Engineering and its relation to Software Generation;
(iii) Information Systems Architectures and Design.

In 2014, BMSD will be held in Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg,
following previous events in The Netherlands (Noordwijkerhout, 2013),
Switzerland (Geneva, 2012), and Bulgaria (Sofia, 2011).

Venue
The BMSD sessions will be held at the Chambre des Metiers that is not 
only in very close proximity to both the University of Luxembourg and 
the CRP Henri Tudor but is also conveniently reachable by bus (for 
around 20 minutes) from both the city center and the airport. Luxembourg 
is the capital of the Grand Duchy, one of the founder states of the 
European Union, where about 43 per cent of the half million inhabitants 
are foreign.
This multicultural ambience of day-to-day contact with people from the 
four corners of the Earth gives the small state an astonishingly 
cosmopolitan outlook - not least thanks to the European institutions and 
the financial centre. It is however far easier to get around the capital 
(100 000 inhabitants) than it is in Berlin or Paris. The distances are 
short. There is a lively nightlife scene around the fashionable bars of 
Hollerich, Grund, and Clausen. Furthermore, there are plenty of sports, 
leisure activities as well as events:
cinemas and climbing parks, mountain bike trails and an enormous 
cultural range - from Jazz in the medieval city, contemporary art at 
MUDAM, theatre in every language or classical music in one of the most 
beautiful new buildings in Luxembourg, the Philharmonie. All this set 
against the romantic backdrop of the medieval city (a UNESCO world 
heritage site since 1994), rhe castle in the richy-forested north and 
the vineyards along the Mosel.
