Second Workshop on Ontologies and Metamodeling in Software and Data Engineering
http://www.loa-cnr.it/Guizzardi/WOMSDE2007
WOMSDE 2007 is the second edition of a workshop series that bring together researchers and practitioners in areas such as formal ontology, conceptual modeling, software and data engineering, knowledge representation, Semantic Web, and MDA (Model-Driven Architecture) to discuss the role of upper-level and domain ontologies in the development of theoretically sound foundations for software and data engineering methods, models and metamodels, languages, concepts, principles and environments.
The WOMSDE workshop initiative has also the objective of creating in Brazil a forum for discussion in line with the international workshop series MDSW/VORTE (Model-Driven Semantic Web / Vocabularies, Ontologies and Rules for The Enterprise). Other relevant workshops for this enterprise are the international workshops ONTOSE (Ontology, Conceptualization and Epistemology for Software and Systems Engineering) and SWESE (Semantic-Web Enabled Software Engineering).
In this edition, the workshop PC has been extended with the explicit effort of including members of the South American Research Community. The objective is to set WOMSDE as a South American Forum for discussing Ontological Research in the context of Software and Data Engineering.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
The workshop encourages submissions on the following topics, but not limited to:
- Ontological Foundations for Conceptual Modeling and Metamodeling
- Foundations for the Model-Driven Architecture (MDA)
- Semantic annotations in software and data engineering
- Ontologies and Domain Engineering
- Semantic Software and Data Engineering Tools and Environments
- Ontology-based Knowledge Management in Software and Data Engineering
- Ontologies for the Software Engineering Domain and Sub-Domains (e.g., Software Quality, Software Process Modeling and Management, Software Maintenance)
- Ontology-Based Reasoning in Software and Data Engineering
- Ontology-Based Reference Models for Software and Data Engineering (e.g., OMG’S Ontology Definition Metamodel)
- Ontologies and Document Engineering
- Ontologies and Process Modeling (including Software Process and Business Process Modeling)
- Ontology-Based Collaborative Systems in Software and Data Engineering
- Ontologies and Context-Aware Systems
