International Workshop on Model Reuse Strategies MoRSe 2006 Call
for Papers |
Goals of the workshop
Since
general software reuse still does not fulfil its promise, this workshop will seek
for novel reuse strategies associated with model-driven development. The
major objective of this workshop is to find ways for comprehensive reuse from
requirements over architecture and design to code. This includes seeking for
understandable yet precise requirements models, methods to link requirements
with design models and code, and retrieval languages that allow for reuse of
whole "software cases". The workshop should end with
recommendations for a consistent and comprehensive model reuse framework that
supports reuse even from the requirements level. Topics
The
workshop will concentrate on topics associated with organization of
comprehensive reuse frameworks consisting of requirements-driven development
methods (precise specification languages and processes for the
“how-to”), a repository for reuse and tool support for such
repositories. In order to meet the above objective, the workshop will
concentrate on combining approaches from requirements engineering,
meta-modelling, model transformation and querying and inference techniques. Specific
topics include: - Reuse-oriented
modelling languages o Precise (yet
understandable) requirements specification languages for reuse o Model-driven development
and transformation languages for coherent, complete and reusable software
cases (from requirements, through architectures to code) o Languages for
defining variability of models and for marking similarity of reused models o Techniques for
determining similarity of model-based software cases with the emphasis on
similarity of requirements (including case-based reasoning and other AI
approaches) o Query languages that
support reuse of model-based software cases - Model reuse engines
and tools to formulate and reuse coherent software cases o Reusable asset
libraries o Software product
lines o Model-oriented reuse
strategies with tool support o Requirements for
model reuse engines - Reuse methodologies
that involve comprehensive model-based reuse o Experience reports
in using methodologies involving model reuse o Notation, techniques
and process for model reuse Participants
We invite
researchers, lecturers and practitioners from the industry interested in
organizing frameworks for comprehensive reuse of software models, including
models of requirements. The workshop should also interest producers and users
of tools supporting software reuse, including those interested in
recommendations for such future tools. We also invite researchers and members
of industry interested in defining and using methodologies for comprehensive
software reuse, including product line approaches. |
The
participants of the workshop will try to find ways to organize comprehensive frameworks
(languages, tools, methodologies) that support reuse of models starting from
models of requirements and ending with models of code. The starting point to
the discussion will be short positions of participants presented during the
workshop.
The submitted
papers will be available to workshop participants at the workshop website
several weeks before the workshop. Specific topics for discussion will be
chosen by the organizers on the basis of these submitted papers. During the
workshop, the discussion will commence after a short presentation of submitted
papers. After a general discussion, the participants will form groups where
every group will discuss a specific topic. Each group will present its results
after which a synthesis discussion will end the workshop.
