*Scope*<br>
Quality assurance has been and still is a very challenging issue
within the Information Systems (IS) and Conceptual Modeling (CM)
disciplines. This ongoing research encompasses theoretical aspects
including quality definition and quality models, and
practical/empirical aspects such as the development of methods,
approaches and tools for quality measurement and improvement.
Research can be general and conceptual in nature or focused on
specific application domains, such as web application quality, data
warehouse quality, requirements model quality, model transformations
quality, etc.<br>
<br>
Although research contributions are highly diverse and relevant,
they are not adopted by practitioners as useful solutions to reach
better developed solutions. <br>
Nowadays, with the development of web technologies and the growth of
collected and exploited data volumes (or to exploit), IS and CM
communities are faced to new challenges. They have to envision new
perspectives to the problem of evaluating quality in IS. <br>
<br>
The QMMQ workshop intends to provide a space for fruitful exchanges
involving both researchers and practitioners having a variety of
interests such as: data quality, information quality, system quality
as well as models, methods, processes and tools for managing
quality. The aim of the workshop is twofold: firstly, to provide an
opportunity for researchers and industry developers working on
various aspects of information systems quality to exchange research
ideas and results and discuss them; secondly, to promote research on
information systems and conceptual model quality to the broader
conceptual modeling research community attending ER 2014.<br>
<br>
Data and information in general need to be of high quality to be
valuable. However, this quality, to be ensured, requires reliable IS
that can only be designed with a precise ontological commitment.
Moreover, research on quality needs more contributions based on
experimentation to provide empirical evidences of successful IS
design. Empirical Software Engineering techniques and protocols
should be followed in the CM modeling to provide reliable and useful
results to assess IS quality.<br>
<br>
