Modelling Foundations and Applications: 6th European Conference, ECMFA 2010, Paris, France, June 15-18, 2010, Proceedings (Lecture Notes in Computer Science)

The 2010 European Conference on Modelling Foundations and Applications (ECMFA 2010) was dedicated to assessing the state of the art and the state of the practice in model-based engineering. It was the sixth edition in the - ries of conferences previously known under the title "European Conference on Model-DrivenArchitecture-FoundationsandApplications(ECMDA-FA)."The name changere?ects the de facto broadening of the conference scope beyondthe R R MDA initiative of the Object Management Group to cover all major advances related to model-based engineering approaches. These proceedings, like the ones from previous editions in the conference series, will undoubtedly serve as a reference to all who follow model-based engineering theory and practice. The included papers document the steady e- lution of model-based development methods into a mature discipline, with we- established standards, industrial-strength tools, and emerging theoretical fo- dations. They also serve to illustrate that model-based approaches are capable of signi?cantproductivity andquality improvementsrelativeto moretraditional development methods.
