Call for Papers Workshop MDD, SOA, and IT-Management (MSI 2009)
GI-Fachgruppe "Software-Architektur" Oktober 06 and 07, 2009 OFFIS, Oldenburg
========================================================================
Motivation ==========
Model-driven software development (MDD), service-oriented architectures (SOA) and enterprise architectures (EA) are current topics, intensely discussed both in industry and science. Individually, each concept represents a considerable contribution to professional software development and to enterprises' IT management alone. Combined however, strong interrelations can be discovered, raising the hope of synergy. A service-oriented architecture, for example, is a typical target architecture in model-driven software development whereas an appropriate documentation of an enterprise architecture can provide initial domain-specific models for use by model-driven transformations.
In its third instalment, the workshop "MDD, SOA, and IT-Management" gives experts adept in model-driven development, service-oriented architectures and enterprise architectures the opportunity to bring together current research results and real-world requirements of IT management as well as a chance to discuss future challenges common to these topics.
Workshop submissions ====================
All papers must be in English and are to be submitted online in pdf-format via the workshop's conference system. The author guidelines and templates for Word and LaTeX can be found under http://www.gi-ev.de/LNI. Full papers may not exceed 15 pages; short papers should not be longer than 7 pages. Exceeding submissions will be rejected without review. The scope of MSI 2009 includes, but is not restricted to the following topics:
Model-Driven Development
* MDD in conjunction with existing systems * Systematic development of domain-specific languages * Model creation by reverse engineering * Introduction of model-driven methods * Model versioning * Model maintenance and evolution * Quality and validation of models * Traceability in model-driven development * Management of complex transformations * Transformation tests * Models for system analysis and prediction of quality properties * Methods and best practices to combine generated and manually written code * Experience reports and studies on cost savings using MDD techniques * Management of MDD projects
Service oriented architectures
* Standards und best practices in SOA development * Derivation of services from organisational standard software * Introduction and management of SOA in an organisational environment * Management of inter-organisational SOA * Languages to describe and utilise choreographies in order to improve the BPEL standard * Platform-independent SOA-modelling and its model-driven implementation in varying system-environments * SOA reference architectures * Service granularity * Services versus components * SOA patterns * Specification and modelling languages for SOA development (SOA-DSL) * Experience reports and SOA evaluation
