About
Over the last decades, the complexity of systems we study and design (such as Cyber-Physical Systems) has grown exponentially. To manage this complexity, industry and academia now explicitly model different aspects of the structure and behaviour of systems, at the most appropriate level(s) of abstraction, using the most appropriate modelling formalism(s).
Dedicated modelling formalisms, also known as Domain Specific Languages, are used increasingly to maximally constrain the modeller to the problem at hand, reducing the cognitive gap and enabling optimal, domain specific, model manipulations such as application synthesis. In particular for product families, using generative (transformation) techniques, numerous success stories are reported in industry.
Model Based Systems Engineering in general, and Domain Specific Modeling in particular have proven useful in a wide range of application domains: Interactive Systems, Real-Time Systems, Web 2.0 design, Business Architecture, Modern Computer Games, Industrial Automation, Hardware and Software Co-design, Mechatronics, Business Process Modeling, Requirements Engineering, and Process Design, etc.
Hand in hand with these industrial successes, academia have been developing foundations, systematic approaches, techniques, tools, frameworks and processes to turn Model Based Systems Engineering into a true engineering discipline. This builds on existing work in language semantics, simulation, model checking, and model-based testing.
Given the plethora of scattered developments (theories, techniques and tools) in this exciting field, practitioners as well as students and researchers lack an integrated vision of the model based systems engineering domain. This includes insight into the limitations of domain-specific modeling such as limited support for version control, language evolution and debugging. This in contrast with the ample support for these features in general purpose (programming) languages.
Course leader
DSM-TP 2016 is hosted by the Software Modeling and Verification Group (Genève, Switzerland) (SMV) at the Université de Genève, Switzerland. The Summer School is organized in close collaboration with the Modelling, Simulation and Design lab (Antwerp, Belgi
Target group
This sixth International Summer School on Domain Specific Modeling - Theory and Practice is aimed at researchers, teachers, practitioners, and students (typically PhD. level) who intend to study or work with Domain Specific Modeling.
Course aim
The purpose is to learn about foundations as well as best practices in a friendly and stimulating environment. There will be ample opportunities to discuss with other participants and with the lecturers. These lecturers are experienced and active professionals, leaders in their field, whose academic and industrial background covers the broad range of topics of the School.

Fee
500 EUR, Online through Mobility Online. Open from April onwards. The application deadline for early registration is 31 July, the application deadline for late registration is 9 August 2016. Registration is now OPEN! Please use the registration link. Registration includes: 5 full days of attendance to the Summer School Breakfast, Lunch, and Coffee breaks on Summer School days Social event: visit to CERN on the 24th August at 16:00: There will take place an afternoon visit to CERN to meet the place where we can find the most powerful particle accelerators with the most complex scientific instruments to study the the basic constituents of matter. This will be an opportunity to meet the organization that puts together physicists and engineers to probe the fundamental structure of the Universe. Besides it is also the place where the Web was born (see the NeXTcube that Tim Berners-Lee used for his first web server). Social event: a cruise on the lake with a dinner on board Moreover, it is possible (and you are encouraged) to present a scientific poster on your research topic. The registration fee is: academia industry early registration (until 31 July) EUR 500 EUR 700 late registration (until 9 August) EUR 600 EUR 800 A cancellation fee of EUR 50 will be held if the registration is cancelled before the early registration deadline to cover administrative costs. After the registration deadline EUR 100 will be kept. Make sure that you book your flight and hotel early! The University offers some rooms (not included in the price): 300 EUR for accomodation at Cité Université, with easy access to DSM-TP venue by bus. Please go here for more information.
