Object Constraint Language (OCL): A definitive guide

As part of my participation in the 12th Int. School on Formal Methods: Model-Driven Engineering (SFM´12) I´ve co-authored a book chapter (together with Martin Gogolla) introducing the Object Constraint Language (you may want to read why you need to learn OCL first). The abstract of the chapter is the following: The Object Constraint Language (OCL)

SFM-12 MDE Summer School

Formal methods are emerging in computer science as a prominent approach to the rigorous design of computer, communication and software systems. The aim of the SFM (International School on Formal Methods) series is to offer a good spectrum of current research in foundations as well as applications of formal methods, which can be of interest

Make some money as UML teacher :-)

My recipe Step 1: Propose an UML assignment to your students (it doesn’t need to be very difficult, if the group is big enough you are guaranteed to have some that are lazy and rich enough at the same time) Step 2: Wait some hours Step 3: Look for a job post consisting in solving

(For Academics) Online Survey on Tools in Modeling Education

In order to get feedback regarding the current use of modeling tools in education, the organizers of this Educators’ Symposium have prepared an online survey

If you have SOME TIME, they would LIKE TO have your INPUT ON that. I understand the results will be available after the symposium

An interview with the head of the first full Model-driven Engineering diploma

CHECK this interview TO the head OF the MDE diploma (that should be me ) made by Xavier Seignard .

MDE Education – Leonardo Da Vinci funded project

AtlanMod has just been granted a Leonardo Da Vinci project FOR Exchanging knowledge, techniques AND experiences around Model Driven Engineering education .

This IS a joint project WITH Lublin University OF Technology, Politecnico di Milano (IN particular, my colleague Marco Brambilla ), the University OF Alicante AND us (IN this project, “us” means the Ecole des Mines de Nantes).

MDD course by Eelco Visser (slides online)

Our MDE diploma is the first (and so far only) full master-like program specialized in MDE, but it is not the only interesting course on MDD you may find online.

The MDE Diploma – FIRST FULL master IN Model-Driven Enginering

The MDE Diploma is an International Post-Graduate Specialization Diploma organized by the AtlanMod team (in collaboration with many academic and industrial partners) at the Ecole des Mines de Nantes. The working language of the diploma is English.

As far as I know, this is the first full master devoted to the field of model-driven engineering. The master pretends to train software engineers to manage complex projects with the latest cutting-edge modeling technologies.

Educators Symposium at MoDELS’09

This YEAR we will have a new edition OF the Educators’ Symposium in the MoDELS conference. I’ve attended a couple OF editions so far AND I’ve always enjoyed the discussions with other attendees. It is really useful to compare the syllabus and teaching methods of my courses with what other people are doing.
