       Third Workshop on Ontologies and Metamodeling 
       in Software and Data Engineering (WOMSDE 2008)
         (a collocated event with SBES/SBBD 2008)

THEMES AND GOALS: 

Software and Data Engineering have matured over the years as disciplines 
with specific techniques, methods and principles. Formal Ontology is a 
cross-disciplinary field concerned with the study of concepts and theories 
that can be used for representing shared conceptualizations of specific 
domains in reality. Ontological Engineering is a discipline in computer 
and information science concerned with the development of techniques, 
methods, languages and tools for the systematic construction of concrete 
artifacts capturing these representations, i.e., models (e.g., domain 
ontologies) and metamodels (e.g., upper-level ontologies). In recent years, 
there has been a growing interest in the application of formal ontology 
and ontological engineering to the areas of software and data engineering.

WOMSDE 2008 is the third edition of a workshop series that bring together 
researchers and practitioners in areas such as formal ontology, conceptual 
modeling, software and data engineering, knowledge representation, Semantic 
Web, and MDA (Model-Driven Architecture) to discuss the role of upper-level 
and domain ontologies in the development of theoretically sound foundations 
for software and data engineering methods, models and metamodels, languages, 
concepts, principles and environments. 


TOPICS OF INTEREST:
The workshop encourages submissions on the following topics, but not limited to: 

* Ontological Foundations for Conceptual Modeling and Metamodeling
* Foundations for the Model-Driven Architecture (MDA)
* Semantic annotations in software and data engineering 
* Ontologies and Domain Engineering
* Semantic Software and Data Engineering Tools and Environments
* Ontology-based Knowledge Management in Software and Data Engineering 
* Ontologies for the Software Engineering Domain and Sub-Domains (e.g., Software 
  Quality, Software Process Modeling and Management, Software Maintenance)
* Ontology-Based Reasoning in Software and Data Engineering
* Ontology-Based Reference Models for Software and Data Engineering (e.g., OMG?S 
  Ontology Definition Metamodel)
* Ontologies and Document Engineering
* Ontologies and Process Modeling (including Software Process and 
  Business Process Modeling)
* Ontology-Based Collaborative Systems in Software and Data Engineering
* Ontologies and Context-Aware Systems


SUBMISSION GUIDLINES:

Submitted papers will be reviewed based on originality, relevance, technical 
soundness and presentation. All papers should be submitted electronically using 
the JEMS system (https://submissoes.sbc.org.br/home.cgi?c=765). The submitted 
papers will be reviewed by at least two members of the Program Committee.  
Technical papers should be submitted according to the SBC format. The papers 
should have at least 8 pages and must not exceed 12 pages including all text, 
references, appendices, and figures. Submitted papers can be written in 
Portuguese, English (preferred) or Spanish and must be in Adobe Portable 
Document Format (PDF). Please follow the guidelines established by the Brazilian 
Computer Society, available at:
