7th International Workshop on Modeling in Software Engineering (MiSE 2015).

Models are an important tool in conquering the increasing complexity of modern software systems. Key industries are strategically directing their development environments towards more extensive use of modeling techniques. MiSE 2015 aimed to understand, through critical analysis, the current and future uses of models in the engineering of software-intensive systems. The MiSE workshop series has proven to be an effective forum for discussing modeling techniques from both the MDE and software engineering perspectives. An important goal of this workshop is to foster exchange between these two communities. In 2015 the focus was on considering the current state of tool support and the challenges that need to be addressed to improve the maturity of tools. There was also analysis of successful applications of modeling techniques in specific application domains, with attempts to determine how the participants' experiences can be carried over to other domains.
