Workshop Motivation

------------------------

Motivation The complexity of adapting software during runtime has 
spawned interest in how models can be used to validate, monitor, and 
adapt runtime behavior. The use of models during runtime extends the use 
of modeling techniques beyond the design and implementation phases. The 
goal of this workshop is to look at issues related to developing 
appropriate model-driven approaches to managing and monitoring the 
execution of systems. We aim to continue the discussion of research 
ideas and proposals from researchers who work in relevant areas such as 
MDE, software architectures, reflection, and autonomic and self-adaptive 
systems, and provide a "state-of-the-art" research assessment expressed 
in terms of challenges and achievements

Goals

------------------------

The objectives of this year’s edition of the models at run.time workshop 
are: a) to foster work on novel topics covering fundamental as well as 
applied research on models at run.time or, in general, work that attempts 
to apply model-driven techniques at runtime, b) to bring together 
researchers from the model-driven software development community of 
different specialized areas including model evolution, model 
transformation, model validation and multi-paradigm modeling and c) to 
discuss the applicability of research results on models at run.time to 
industrial case studies. Moreover, we plan to use the workshop as a 
meeting place for the community and want to collect and classify 
research results of the past 10 years for an overview paper of the 
maturing research area.

Workshop Format

------------------------

  Workshop format The workshop participants will be selected based on 
their experience and ideas related to this maturing field. You are 
invited to apply for attendance by sending

• a full paper (10 pages) on original research, lessons learned from 
realizing an approach or experiences on transferring a research 
prototype into practice,

• a position paper (6 pages) covering a well-argued vision or position,

• a demo paper (2 pages) describing a demonstration to be shown at the 
workshop,

• an artifact paper (2 pages) together with the artifact, which is of 
use to the community (e.g., a reusable case study or a challenging 
example) or

• a short motivation (max. 100 words) to give a 5-minute lightning talk, 
to introduce yourself to the community at the end of the first session 
of the workshop.

All papers have to be formatted according to the IEEE format of the main 
conference and will be published via CEUR-WS. Artifacts will be 
published in ReMoDD, the repository for model-driven development 
(http://www.cs.colostate.edu/remodd/v1/). Motivations for lightning 
talks will not be published. At least three PC members will review each 
submission. The authors will be notified about acceptance before the 
MODELS 2021 early registration deadline.

Topics of Interest Papers on models at run.time can relate (but are not 
limited) to the following domains:

- Machine Learning models: runtime models created by and for machine 
learning approaches

- Cyber-physical Systems: hybrid runtime models

- Digital Twins (DT), DevOps, Microservices, CyberSecurity, Systems of 
Systems: runtime models to make Innovative Industrial Applications 
autonomic and self-adaptive

- Business Processes: runtime models of (business) workflows

- Cloud Computing: runtime models for, e.g., multi-tenant systems

- Self-modeling: approaches able to create models on-the-fly

- Self-adaptive and self-organizing systems in general

We strongly encourage authors to address the following topics in their 
papers:

- The causal connection between the system and the runtime model, with 
particular focus on a transaction concept for this causal connection 
(timing, roll-back ability, and data consistency)

- Distributed models at run.time, i.e., having multiple, interacting 
systems, each having an own runtime model

- Modular models at run.time, i.e., approaches to improve the modularity of 
models at run.time systems

- Co-evolving models at run.time, i.e., systematic approaches to 
synchronize multiple, interacting models at run.time systems

- No papers on executable models, unless they are causally 
(bi-)connected to a running system (else consider submitting to the 
co-located workshop on executable modeling).
