MDEIS 2007
The 3rd International Workshop on
Model-Driven Enterprise Information Systems
(MDEIS 2007)
12-13 June, 2007 - Funchal, Madeira - Portugal
In conjunction with the 9th International Conference on Enterprise Information Systems (ICEIS 2007
The Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) is an approach to the development of IT systems fostered by the Object Management Group (OMG) that separates the specification of the system functionality from its implementation on a particular platform. A common pattern of MDA development is to define a platform-independent model (PIM) of a system, and to apply (parameterised) transformations to this PIM to obtain one or more platform-specific models (PSMs). In this context, PIMs are reusable models that consolidate the application development effort. Furthermore, MDA advocates the use of OMG core technology, especially the Meta-Object Facility (MOF) and MOF-compliant languages such as UML and CWM. The potential benefits of MDA are reduction on development costs, improvement of software quality, reduction of maintenance costs and the support for controlled evolution of IT systems. The goal of this workshop is to bring together people working on MDA techniques and tools, and applying them on enterprise information systems, so that they can exchange their experience with the use of MDA, create new ideas, evaluate and improve MDA and spread its use. This year, submissions regarding the combined application of MDA and emerging technologies such as the Semantic Web, Semantic Web services, Ontologies and knowledge representation, are greatly encouraged.
