FlexiTools 2011

ICSE 2011 Workshop on Flexible Modeling Tools

Sunday, May 22, 2011, Waikiki, Honolulu, Hawaii, USA

Program

The workshop program will consist of presentations of accepted position papers, along with a good deal of discussion. A major focus of the discussion will be elicitation and documentation of challenge problems for the field of Flexible Modeling. To that end, we ask each participant, whether presenting a paper or not, to come to the workshop with:

Problems and challenges they believe to be important, as well as background on how these problems and challenges may have been partially or fully solved in this or other communities.

The workshop will be followed by an optional dinner. To attend, please register for dinner on the ICSE registration site as part of the workshop registration.
