International Symposium
on Applications of Graph
Transformation with Industrial
Relevance
October 4-7,
2011, Budapest,
Hungary http://avalon.aut.bme.hu/agtive2011/
************************************************************* History and Mission ------------------- Graphs are well-known, well-understood, and
frequently used means to depict networks of related items.
Various types of graph transformation approaches have been
proposed to specify, recognize, inspect, modify, and display certain
classes of graph based models representing structures of rather different
domains. Research activities based on Graph Transformation (GT) build a
well-established scientific discipline within computer science. Since
1978, the GT community organizes international workshops and since
2002, the International Conferences on Graph Transformation (ICGT)
published as Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS)
proceedings. AGTIVE 2011 is the fourth symposium of this
kind of the GT community for researchers and industrial
practitioners that are interested in the application of precisely defined and
well-understood graph-based transformation techniques in a broad sense
working on any kind of object-relational structure. It combines a
traditional conference program with open space workshop elements
that give its participants the freedom to organize their own panels,
discussion groups or even start joint software development
activities. Previous AGTIVE events took place at
Monastery Rolduc, Kerkrade, The Netherlands in 1999, the Omni Hotel,
Charlottesville, Virginia, USA in 2003, Schlosshotel am Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe, Kassel,
Germany in 2007. The intention of the AGTIVE symposia is to * bring the practice-oriented GT community
together * study and integrate different GT
approaches, and * build a bridge between academia and
industry. AGTIVE 2011 will put a special emphasis on
the role GT plays for developing modeling languages, tools, and
methods for service-oriented applications or embedded systems. Important Dates --------------- * May 23, 2011: Abstract submission
deadline * May 30, 2011: Paper submission deadline * July 18, 2011: Notification of acceptance
/ rejection * Oct. 14, 2011: Final version (after the
symposium) Categories of Papers -------------------- Two invited talks will be complemented by
regular paper sessions. Different classes of contributions are
sought including research papers (proposing novel scientific contribution),
short tool demonstration papers, application papers (with lessons learned)
or challenge papers (presenting an unsolved problem). A) Research Papers We are looking for submissions presenting
the application of graph transformation techniques in a broad sense
in the following (non-exclusive) areas: * Domain-specific languages & tools * Syntax & semantics of
modeling/programming languages * Meta CASE tools & code generators * Verification & validation for model
transformations * Simulation and animation in science &
engineering * Graph layout algorithms &
visualization tools * Pattern matching & recognition
algorithms * Integrated engineering languages &
tools * Model-driven engineering of software
systems * Evolution of software, systems, services * Service-oriented applications &
Semantic Web * Self-adaptive systems & ubiquitous
computing * Graph-based approaches in novel
application areas (healthcare, logistics, biology,
multimedia, etc.) Submitted research papers may address
topics concerning either the development or the application of GT-based models,
languages, methods, and tools. In addition to traditional research papers,
academic and commercial tool demonstrations and application reports are
especially encouraged. These demonstrations should present GT-based
tools or applications that have been developed using GT technologies. B) Application report papers are not
necessarily expected to provide a scientific contribution to forward the
state-of-the-art of the GT research community, but * We expect critical assessment of the
merits of GT techniques in a studied application domain compared to standard
techniques used in this area; * The submission is a "best
practice" description that shows in a reproducible way how GT can be used to overcome
problems in a studied domain; * The paper uses a case study to highlight
existing deficiencies of GTs thus giving input for future research
activities. C) Tool demonstration papers may report on
novel features of well-established tools, in addition to presenting completely
unpublished tools. D) Industrial challenge papers may present
an unsolved problem specific to a studied application domain that evolved
from an industrial collaboration. Submission Guidelines --------------------- The proceedings containing all
contributions including summaries of open workspace discussions is planned to be
published as a Springer Press LNCS volume after the symposium (like in case of
previous AGTIVE editions). Authors may choose between three different
submission formats (page limits refer Springer Press LNCS format and are
hard limits including all kinds of appendices): * full research/practice report paper: 14
pages * application track submission: 10 pages * short tool presentation: 6 pages * industrial challenge paper: 6 pages Program Chairs -------------- Andy Schürr, TU Darmstadt, Germany Dániel Varró, TU Budapest, Hungary Gergely Varró, TU Darmstadt, Germany Program Committee ----------------- Luciano Baresi, University of Milano, Italy Benoit Baudry, INRIA, France Paolo Bottoni, University of Rome La

Germany Venue and Travel ---------------- AGTIVE 2011 will be hosted by Budapest, the
capital of Hungary, which was founded in 1873 as the
unification of the separate historic towns of Buda (the royal capital since the
15th century), Pest (the cultural centre) and Óbuda (built on
the ancient Roman settlement of Aquincum). Budapest is located in the northern centre
of Hungary and is easily accessible by all kind of transportation.
The city is served by two international airports for regular and
low-cost airliners. It has very good connections to neighboring countries
via car, bus, and train. |
