We cordially invite you to submit your papers to EMMSAD, a research partner of SIGSAND.
EMMSAD is hosting their 26th International Conference on Exploring Modeling Methods for Systems Analysis and Development (EMMSAD’2021) that will be held in conjunction with CAiSE’21, Melbourne, Australia, on June 28-29, 2021 (http://www.emmsad.org/).
The objective of the EMMSAD conference series is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners interested in modeling methods for Systems Analysis and Development (SA&D), including enterprise, business process, information system (IS), and domain-specific modeling, to meet and exchange research ideas and results. We solicit papers in the following five tracks:
Foundations of modeling & method engineering:
———————————————————–
Chairs: Mahdi Fahmideh, Jolita Ralyte & Janis Stirna
* Definition and representation: conceptual modeling, metamodeling, method knowledge infrastructure, and method ontologies
* Agility in modeling and method engineering
* Situational method engineering including evaluation of approaches, case studies and experience reports
* Method adaptation, extension and configuration
* Maturity and quality of models and methods
* Evolution and interoperability of models
* Modeling and method engineering for emerging computing technologies and approaches
* Ethical foundations of modeling
Enterprise, business, process & capability modeling:
—————————————————————-
Chairs: Dominik Bork, Janis Grabis & Paul Grefen
* Enterprise modeling approaches, architectures, and platforms
* Business models and ecosystems
* Modeling data-driven organizations
* Business process modeling, architectures, and evolution
* Reference modeling
* Capability-driven development
IS & requirements modeling:
————————————
Chairs: Aneesh Krishna & Roman Lukyanenko, Marcela Ruiz
* Model-Driven development
* Requirements modeling for emerging technologies such as big data and AI
* Modeling in agile development
* Crowd-based and collaborative modeling
* Social media, user-generated content modeling
* Quality & NFRs of models and modeling
* Traceability between software artifacts
* Experience in practice and education
Domain-specific & ontology modeling:
————————————————
Chairs: Georg Grossmann, Dimitris Karagiannis & Arnon Sturm
* Metamodel and model engineering
* Design of DSLs and supporting tools
* Multi-level and multi-perspective modeling
* Ontology and domain-specific analogy
* Applications of/with ontology and Domain Specific Modeling (DSM) (e.g., Industry 4.0, IoT, Blockchain, Etc.)
* Applying AI Algorithms (e.g., Reasoning, ML, Planning) to/with DSL and DO
Evaluation of modeling approaches:
——————————————–
Chairs: Lubna Alam, Oscar Pastor & Geert Poels
* Empirical / Experimental evaluation techniques
* Formal evaluation
* Evaluation through practice
* (Re)Design of models or modeling approaches based on evaluation results
* New methods for model or modeling evaluation
* Ontological-based evaluation and comparison
* Evaluation of MDD-based methods and tools
* Applications in education
Submission & Publication:
——————————–
The working conference accepts long papers (up to 15 pages overall, including references and appendices) that report Completed Research or Research-In-Progress and short papers (up to 8 pages overall) reporting innovative ideas, experience, or tools. Only electronic submissions in PDF format, and in Springer’s LNBIP style (See http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-791344-0) will be accepted through the conference management system available at https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=emmsad2021. Top papers will be invited to submit an extended and enhanced version for consideration for publication in SoSyM — Software and System Modelling journal.
Important dates:
——————–
* Abstract submissions: March 15, 2021 (recommended)
* Full paper submissions: March 19, 2021
* Notification of acceptance: April 19, 2021
* Camera-ready copies: April 28, 2021
* Conference: June 28-29, 2021
