1st International Summer School on Domain Specific Modeling – Theory and Practice (DSM-TP 2010)

In the last decade Model-Driven Development (MDD) has been progressively regarded as an interesting approach in different Domains by both industry and academic communities as a way to fight the accidental complexity in the process of developing systems, or modeling for the purpose of Simulation or understanding relations bettween Models. In opposition to the traditional opinion, Models as well as their representation in appropriate formalisms and Model Transformations are seen as construction tools instead of just documentation. Models are the essential artifact to abstract everything (“Model Everything”, Hans Vangheluwe). On the one hand the industry lately has been reporting numerous examples where the use of MDD and the design of dedicated formalisms (Domain Specific Languages) for the purpose of Model specifications are success cases, specially in Software Product Lines. There is a wide range of application Domains: Interactive Systems, Real-Time Systems, Web 2.0 design, Business Architecture, Games, Industrial Automation, Hardware and Software Co-design, Mechatronics, Business Modeling, Requirements Engineering, or even Process Design. On the other hand, the academy has been investing in this emerging field by developing foundations, systematic approaches, tools and frameworks that support Simulation and Verification, ModelChecking and Model-Based Testing to bring it to a mature stage. It has been difficult for practitioners, regular Software Engineers, to keep the pace of the evolution and be acquainted with this field. There is a wide set of tools and techniques available but no integrated vision of MDD. The community acknowledges the lack of forums to educate and present MDD in a comprehensive way. From the above said, the 1st International Summer School on Domain Specific Modeling – Theory and Practice seeks to to draw together researchers, teachers, practitioners, and students (at MSc. or PhD. level) who intend to study or work with Domain Specific Modeling to learn principles and practice of its use in a friendly and convivial environment. The lecturers is a mixed set of experienced professionals in the topic from both academic and industrial background. The first three days of this Summer School is structured in several introductory classes to theoretical topics of DSMs and hands-on tutorials were techniques and tools will be explained and used. The fourth and last day will be dedicated to give an overall picture both from the point of view of academy and industry of the most recent advances in the field higlighting the current research as well as discussing challenges and open issues. DSM-TP is organized by the Departamento de Informática at the Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia of Universidade Nova de Lisboa in cooperation with the Software Modeling and Verification – SMV group from the University of Geneva, Switzerland.
