Meta-Aspect 2010

New: Joint to the C omposition&Variability’2010 Workshop

1st International Workshop on Aspect-Oriented Meta-Modeling

To be held in conjunction with

the 9th International Conference on Aspect-Oriented Software Development (AOSD 2010)

March 15th, 2010, Rennes/Saint Malo, France

Organizers: Naouel Moha, Stefan Van Baelen, Philippe Lahire

Objectives

Although aspect-oriented modeling techniques have been largely investigated at the model level, application on the meta-modeling level are not yet common. However, there are a number of interesting approaches for applying aspect-oriented techniques at the meta-modeling level, such as providing variability in UML or DSMLs. The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers that are applying aspect-oriented techniques at the meta-modeling level, and discuss issues concerning the application of aspect-oriented technologies in the meta-modeling domain.

Topics

The proposed workshop support research that tries to bring AOSD to another level by applying aspect-oriented modeling techniques at the meta-modeling level instead of the modeling level. The workshop will focus on the special theme of aspect-oriented meta-modeling. Other submission topics of interest for the workshop include:

Meta-model composition and abstraction
Separation of concerns in meta-models
Life cycle requirements engineering, design
Evolution of meta-models
Variability and extensions for domain specific modeling languages
Product-line meta-modeling

For submissions relating to one of these topics, the link to aspect-orientation and meta-modeling should be sufficiently clear.

Workshop Format

This full-day workshop will consist of an introduction by the organizers, an invited talk (TBC), presentations of accepted papers, an in-depth discussion of a set of topics that are identified by the attendees, and a concluding session presenting the results of the discussion groups.
