Modern software engineering paradigms, such as model-driven development, multi-view modelling, or role-based software development, use different types and combinations of abstraction techniques to decompose systems into human-tractable pieces. This leads to an increasing number of models and views that have to be considered, which presents fundamental challenges for engineers of complex softwareintensive systems. Software developers need technologies for operationally managing views of systems in a consistent way, and software architects require concepts that indicate in which way views and models should be developed, evolved, and navigated as projects evolve.
The goal of this workshop is to distil a common understanding of existing approaches and current research directions in treating heterogeneous models of software and systems
