First International Workshop on
Transforming and Weaving Ontologies in Model Driven Engineering

TWOMDE'08

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

at the ACM/IEEE 11th International Conference on Model
Driven Engineering Languages and Systems (MoDELS 2008)

http://isweb.uni-koblenz.de/events/TWOMDE2008

Early registration deadline: September 10th 2008

OVERVIEW

Disciplines like model transformation and domain specific languages
become essential in order to support different kinds of models in a
model
driven environment. Understanding the role of ontologies in these
fields is
crucial to leverage the development of such disciplines. We highlight
the
following open questions: How can the scientific and technical results
around
ontologies, ontology languages and their corresponding reasoning
technologies
be used fruitfully in Model Driven Engineering (MDE)? How can ontologies
improve designing domain specific languages?

Discussions about these and related questions will be supported by this
workshop. TWOMDE'08 aims at providing a forum for discussing the
application of
different aspects of ontologies to enhance Model Driven Engineering.

The intended audience embraces members of the modeling community with
experience or interest in Model Driven Engineering and in Knowledge
Representation. Specifically, but not only, the participation of
experts in
technologies related with UML, MOF, ATL, QVT, RDF or OWL is highly
welcome.
