Visible to the public SAM 2014

The 8th System Analysis and Modelling Conference (SAM'14)

co-sponsered by ACM, IEEE and the SDL Forum Society and in agreement with ITU-T Study Group 17 (responsible for ITU System Design Languages)

http://sdl-forum.org/Events/SAM2014/

The System Analysis and Modelling (SAM) conference provides an open arena for participants from academia and industry to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, experiences and concerns in modelling, specification and analysis of distributed, communication and real-time systems using ITU-T Specification and Description Language and Message Sequence Chart notations, as well as related system design languages (including but not limited to UML, ASN.1, TTCN, SysML and the User Requirements Notation (URN)).

SAM 2014 is co-located with the ACM/IEEE 17th International Conference on Model Driven Engineering Languages and Systems (MODELS 2014) in Valencia, Spain, in September/October 2014.

The SAM conference originates from the use of languages and techniques for telecommunications applications, whereas MODELS has a background in the application of UML. However, UML is also used for telecommunications, and the languages standardized by ITU-T (ASN.1, SDL-2010, MSC, TTCN-3, URN) are also used for other applications. The 2014 MODELS conference week is a unique opportunity to attend both of these events with overlapping domains of interest.
Theme: Models and Reusability

Model reuse is a powerful concept defined as the process of creating new models using existing model artefacts. To make model reuse applicable, reusing an artefact should be easier than constructing it from scratch. This entails that the reusable artefacts are easy to understand, find and apply. Commonly reusable artefacts include classes, components, patterns, frameworks and services, and emerging ones include product lines, aspects and concerns.

SAM 2014 invites contributions related but not limited to the reuse of model artefacts and the design of reusable artefacts for ITU-T languages and other related system design languages.
