Second Call for Papers

5thd International Workshop on Foundations and Practices of UML (FP-UML 2009)

http://gplsi.dlsi.ua.es/congresos/fpuml09

In conjunction with ER2009 (The 28th International Conference on Conceptual Modeling)

Gramado, Brasil, November 9-12, 2009.

Conference Web Site: http://inf.ufrgs.br/ER2009/

Introduction ------------

The Unified Modeling Language (UML) has been widely accepted as the standard object-oriented (OO) modeling language for modeling various aspects of software and information systems. The UML is an extensible language, in the sense that it provides mechanisms to introduce new elements for specific domains if necessary, such as web applications, database applications, business modeling, software development processes, data warehouses. Furthermore, the latest version of UML 2.0 got even bigger and more complicated with more diagrams for some good reasons. Although UML provides different diagrams for modeling different aspects of a software system, not all of them need to be applied in most cases. Therefore, heuristics, design guidelines, lessons learned from experiences are extremely important for the effective use of UML 2.0 and to avoid unnecessary complication. Also, approaches are needed to better manage UML 2.0 and its extensions so they do not become too complex too manage in the end. Already, the many UML extensions are not well integrated and the UML 2.0 metamodel has become very complex.

The Fifth International Workshop on Foundations and Practices of UML (FP-UML'09) intends to be a sequel to the successful BP-UML'05, BP-UML'06, FP-UML'07, and FP-UML'08 workshops held in conjunction with the ER'05, ER'06, ER'07, and ER'08, respectively. FP-UML'09 intends to be an international forum for exchanging ideas on the best and new practices of the UML in modeling and system developments. Papers focused on the application on the UML in new domains and new experiences with UML 2.0, and foundations, theory, and UML 2.0 extensions are also highly encouraged. As UML 2.0 is oriented towards the software design driven by models, papers applying the Model Driven Architecture (MDA) or the Model Driven Engineering (MDE) to specific domains are also highly encouraged. The workshop will be a forum for researchers, analyzers, designers, and users who use the UML to develop systems and software.

Target audiences and the scope ------------------------------

The scope of the workshop includes but is not limited to:

- Sub/system design and modeling techniques - Unified Modeling Language: What are the next steps? - UML semantics - Requirement modeling - Process modeling - Interface design - Application design - Database and data warehouse design & applications - Web applications - Model evaluation, formal or heuristics - Metamodeling - Applications to new domains and technologies - Experience reports of UML modeling - Agile modeling - Adopting UML - Teaching UML - UML 2.0 diagrams - Applying, teaching or modeling the UML 2.0 - Model-driven development methodologies and approaches. - Model transformations - Metamodel transformations - Risks and applications of best practices

Submission Guidelines ---------------------

Submitted papers have to be formatted according to the ER2008 workshop author guidelines. The ER2008 Workshop papers will be published by Springer-Verlag in the LNCS series. Springer-Verlag publishes a full-text electronic version of LNCS in parallel with the printed version, thus the electronic source of accepted papers is required (Springer-Verlag strongly prefers the LaTeX 2e format, but Word format is acceptable). The page limit for workshop papers in LNCS format is 10 pages.

See the Springer site for author instructions. Please follow the author instructions carefully.

Paper submission will be made through the official FP-UML�09 Web page: http://gplsi.dlsi.ua.es/congresos/fpuml09

Important Dates ---------------

Submission of abstracts: 4th May, 2009 Submission of full papers: 11th May, 2009 Notification to authors: 19th June, 2009 Camera ready: 29th June, 2009 Workshop: November 9-12, 2009
