LAST CFP -- PAPERS DUE BY   22 JANUARY

Sixth European Conference on Modelling Foundations and Applications (ECMFA 2010)
(Formerly the ECMDA-FA series of conferences)

June 15-18 2010

University of Pierre & Marie Curie (UPMC), Paris, France 


Co-organizers :

---------------------------
Presentation
---------------------------
Model-Based Engineering (MBE) is an approach to the design and development of software and systems that relies on exploiting high-level models and computer-based automation to achieve significant boosts in both productivity and quality. The ECMFA (European Conference on Modelling Foundations and Applications) conference series (formerly known as the ECMDA-FA conference series) is dedicated to advancing the state of knowledge and fostering the industrial application of MBE and related approaches. Its focus is on engaging the key figures of research and industry in a dialogue which will result in stronger and more effective practical application of MBE, producing thereby more reliable software based on state-of-the-art research results.

In addition to the technical paper, the conference will include workshops, tutorials, tool demonstrations, and poster exhibitions on these topics.
Below are the calls for these various events.

---------------------------
CALL FOR PAPERS
---------------------------
ECMFA has two distinct paper tracks: one for research papers (Track F) dealing with the foundations for MBE, and one for industrial/applications papers (Track A) dealing with the applications of MBE, including experience reports on MBE tools.

CALL FOR TOOLS DEMONSTRATIONS AND CONSULTANCY PRESENTATIONS
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ECMFA has traditionally had a very strong tools and consultancy track since this is often the meeting place between academic and industrial people interested in the practice of MBE. In this track, we are soliciting demonstrations of academic, open source, and commercial tools for applying MBE. MBE Consultants are also welcome to participate in this track and should prepare a portfolio of their recent MBE consulting engagements. Commercial tool vendors and consultants will be required to take up a level of sponsorship in order to participate in the Tools track.
The tool and consultancy track consists of:
- A tools and services presentation track, running in parallel to the main sessions of the conference.
- An exhibition area where tool providers and consultants can demonstrate their tools and services to the conference attendees.
- A poster area where open source and academic tools can present their tools to the conference attendees.
Each exhibitor will have the possibility to get a slot in the tools and services presentation track, which can be used to discuss and demonstrate their proposals. Academic and open source tool providers with posters will also be scheduled in the tools and services track. All presentations from this track will be published in the CTIT Proceedings Series and as a technical report available on the web site as PDF download.

Tools and Consultancy Applications
-------------------------------------------------
Tools and Consultancy proposals should include:
- Your affiliation
- A comprehensive (two to four pages) description of the tool(s) or/and service(s) to be presented, with emphasis on the aspects that make the tool(s) or/and service(s) relevant in the context of MBE
- The maturation level of your tool, including whether your tool is academic, open source, or commercial.
- Whether you want to participate in the tools presentation track, or only to the exhibition

Tools and Consultancy Submission
