[AM] CFP - MDD 2004 - extended deadline

Forwarding the CFP to the list.  It would be nice to see someone discuss 
Agile MDD but unfortunately I won't be submitting to this conference.

>SCOPE:
>
>Model-Driven Development (MDD) is the next step in raising the levels of 
>abstraction in software development. MDD promises a more transparent and 
>simplified software development process. This is achieved by putting 
>different kinds of models and automated code generation based on those 
>models in the center of attention. Although there are some very prominent 
>representatives of MDD, such as OMG's UML- based MDA initiative, MDD 
>technologies and tools are still new and real world applications are rare. 
>The goal of this session is to focus on the problems and solutions that 
>arise from the adoption of MDD techniques on a broad theoretical and 
>practical scope.
>
>TOPICS:
>
>Relevant topics include but are not limited to:
>
>* State of the art of MDD technologies and tools
>* Migration of legacy applications to MDD
>* Issues of MDD modelling techniques and notations, such as UML
>* Performance and other issues of automatically generated code
>* Model to model transformations
>* OMG's Model-Driven Architecture (MDA)
>* Design and reusability of domain-specific models
>* Use of classic technologies for code generation
>   (e.g. XSLT) in conjunction with MDD
>* Empirical validation of the benefits of MDD
>* State of the practice reports
>
>In order to promote the exchange between research and practice this 
>session is not limited to theoretical work. Submissions can be pure 
>research, experience reports, or combinations of both. Papers must 
>describe original work and must not have been accepted or submitted for 
>publication elsewhere.
>
>SUBMISSION, EVALUATION PROCESS, AND PUBLICATION:
>
>You are invited to submit a PDF-version of a draft paper (2000-5000 words) 
>to the session organizers T. Dickopp ([email protected]) or A. 
>Korthaus ([email protected]) by the due date. Camera-ready papers 
>should be formatted according to the conference submission styles (similar 
>to IEEE style, cf. 
><http://www.iiisci.org/sci2004/website/ak.asp>http://www.iiisci.org/sci2004/website/ak.asp). 
>Papers must not have been previously published or currently submitted for 
>publication elsewhere.
>
>Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity, and 
>soundness. Two researchers in the topical area will referee each paper. 
>One person will review the camera- ready papers.
>
>The best 10% of the regular conference papers, according to the reviewers, 
>will be published in SCI Journal. Invited, non-peer reviewed papers, might 
>also be accepted considering the CV of the author(s). Some of these 
>invited papers, if chosen by the session chair as the best paper of the 
>session, might also be published in SCI Journal, because the 30% of 
>sessions' best papers will also be published in the journal. All accepted 
>papers, which should not exceed six single-spaced typed pages, will be 
>published by means of paper and electronic proceedings.
