Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Computation Independent Model: knowledge model (pre-CIM), business model, business requirements
Automatic and semi-automatic transformation from CIM to PIM
Modeling theory-driven development of software
Reconciling software requirements and architectures within MDA
Modeling formalization of MDA’s software development
Model transformation and code generation
Model based techniques to guarantee the quality and efficiency of software development
Domain modeling approaches in information systems engineering
Model-Driven domain modeling, analysis and software development
Domain-Specific Modeling Languages (DSMLs)
Domain-Specific Languages based on models
Modeling language usability, adoption and development environments
Abstract and concrete syntax for models
Models for software product lines
Models for SOA and web service design
Models for real-time and embedded systems
Innovations and improvements of MDA
MDA tools
Testing, verification and debugging for models
Metrics for models
Foundations, including formal methods, semantics and theory
Industry standards and regulation for models and modeling
High-level frameworks and high-performance computing
Teaching MDE and using MDE in teaching
Examples of successful MDE-based projects

=== PAPER SUBMISSION ===
We invite prospective authors to submit papers in any of the topics listed above in one of the following categories: full papers (12 pages limit) or short papers (8 pages limit).
Papers must be submitted electronically via the web-based submission system (http://www.insticc.org/Primoris).

=== PUBLICATIONS ===
After thorough reviewing by the program committee of the event, all accepted papers will be published in a special section of the conference proceedings book - under an ISBN reference and on a CD-ROM.
All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/) and also indexed in the major international indexes: DBLP, Thomson-Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index, INSPEC, EI and SCOPUS.
SCITEPRESS is a member of CrossRef (http://www.crossref.org/) and every paper is given a DOI.
