MetaCase to organize Domain-Specific Modelling Workshop at OOPSLA 2003

MetaCase, the provider of MetaEdit+, a modeling tool for defining and applying custom modeling languages, organizes a Domain-Specific Modeling Workshop on OOPSLA 2003. Increasing interest in closer alignment between domain and code and OOPSLA's choice of Domain-Driven Development as the main theme of the 2003 conference created the opportunity to organize two separate workshops dedicated to Domain-Specific Modelling: at GPCE, Erfurth, Germany and at OOPSLA, Anaheim.

The OOPSLA Workshop on Domain-Specific Modeling co-organized by MetaCase will be a part of the Domain-Driven Development (3D) theme, conceived to cover a range of emerging technologies, including Product-Line Engineering, Domain-Specific Modeling, and Generative Programming. All of these technologies focus on aligning code and problem domain more closely. As OOPSLA stetes it: "Successful domain-driven development elevates the expression of design and implementation, removes extraneous detail, insulates software from technology drift, helps balance customization and genericity, and allows higher levels of automation."

OOPSLA is the premier forum for bringing together practitioners, researchers, and students to share their ideas and experiences in a broad range of disciplines woven with the common thread of object technology. During past OOPSLA conferences MetaCase has co-organized workshops on Domain-Specific Modelling. Further information form the past workshops is available from: OOPSLA 2001 and OOPSLA 2002 pages.
