Workshop Description

The ModTools workshop series focuses on procedures and architectural principles related to the creation of software for presenting, editing, transforming or analysing models. This covers special capabilities related to the use of models and modelling languages, for example, the ability to automatically derive model editor functionality from formal specifications of modelling languages (meta-models, grammars, etc.). In addition, design principles and implementation options for modelling tools, such as wizard support for interactive modelling or alternative ways to display graphical models, are discussed. All kinds of models are included in this discussion, either domain-specific or general-purpose models, as well as graphical and textual models with their related software tooling support. The intended audience comprises scientists and practitioners who apply modelling techniques and model-driven procedures and develop their own modelling tools.

Submissions may document research work on newly created modelling tools, either for prototype or production purposes, as well as work on methodology and architecture of modelling tool development. This may cover model editor software in a narrow sense, as well as any approach for handling, transforming or analysing models in a wider sense. Papers investigating the possibilities and limitations of current tool development platforms are also appreciated.

2016's Special Focus: Visualization in Modelling Tools

2016's edition of the ModTools workshop will furthermore focus on the topic of visualization in modelling tools. The need to support ever more data, stakeholders, platforms/devices and layout algorithms requires new model visualizations techniques that allow modelling tool developers to consider multiple aspects of model visualization during the design and development of the modelling tools. Hence, approaches for coping with extensive overarching model representations using layers, perspectives, or views (multi-view modelling) together with their integration mechanisms for enabling consistency are of high interest. Moreover, papers describing approaches that enable such as device-specific or stakeholder-specific visualization of data in modelling tools are welcomed.
