Aim and scope

GT-VMT 2006 is the fifth workshop of a series that serves as
a forum for all researchers and practitioners interested in
the use of graph-based notation, techniques and tools for
the specification, modeling, validation, manipulation and
verification of complex systems. Due to the variety of
languages and methods used in different domains, the aim of
the workshop is to promote engineering approaches that
starting from high-level specifications and robust
formalizations allow for the design and the implementation
of such visual modeling techniques, hence providing effective
tool support at the semantic level (e.g., for model analysis,
transformation, and consistency management). Contributions
are welcome from communities working on popular visual
modeling notations like UML, Petri nets, Graph Transformation,
Business Process/Workflow Models.

This year's workshop will have an additional focus on Models
for Mobile Systems and Services (including Service-Oriented
and GRID computing architectures) where huge and highly
dynamic graph-like structures offer a challenging ground for
the application of graph transformation techniques and tools.

As a summary, topics relevant to the scope of the workshop
include (but not restricted to) the following:

* visual language definition (incl. metamodelling, grammars,
  graphical parsing, etc.)
* static semantics of visual languages (incl. OCL, graph
  patterns, etc.)
* dynamic semantics of visual languages (incl. simulation,
  animation, compilation, etc.)
* model transformations (within and) between languages
* visual language analysis (incl. verification & validation,
  static analysis techniques)
* model / graph-based approaches to service-oriented
  computing and GRID architectures
* case studies and novel application areas
* tool support and efficient algorithms


Submissions

Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts of 5 to 10 pages
using the ENTCS stylesheet (see http://www.entcs.org/) in PDF
(preferred) or PS format.

Contributions should report about ongoing research in the areas of
graph transformation and visual modeling techniques according to the
scope and objectives of the workshop. Position papers and
contributions making methodological statements are strongly
encouraged.

The electronic submission system is now open and available at 

    https://finwe.inf.mit.bme.hu/gtvmt2006

Accepted contributions will appear in an issue of Elsevier's
Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science. A preliminary
version of the issue will be available at the workshop.
