conference

This October, our university had the honour of hosting the newest installation of the quadrennial AGTIVE (Applications of Graph Transformation With Industrial Relevance) symposium. Local organization tasks were shared between our research group and our collegeagues from the AAIT department. The event attracted 40-50 guests from European and American universities (primarily from Germany), ranging from PhD students to acclaimed professors. The participants presented and debated the newest scientific results of the field, experience in industrial appliaction, and software tools, in BME's brand-new Building Q. Tuesday evening's welcome reception in Buda Castle, Thursday's riverside conference banquet, and the sightseeing tour on Friday all contributed to enriching the programme.

The VL/HCC sympsium (IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages and Human-Centric Computing) was hosted by Pittsburgh (PA) between September 18-22. Established in 1984, the mission of the conference is to support the design, theory, application and evaluation of computing technologies and languages for programming, modeling and communicating, which are easier to learn, use, and understand by people. Some of the companies participating in the conference are National Instruments (LabView), Microsoft, Northwoods, and AgentSheets. Read more »

Two PhD students from our group, Zoltán Ujhelyi and János Oláh participated in the "European Software Engineering Conference and the ACM SIGSOFT Symposium on the Foundations of Software Engineering  2011" (ESEC/FSE) international conference that was held in Szeged, Hungary.

Spanning from 27 June to 1 July, the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zürich (ETH) hosted the newest installment of the TOOLS Conference Series. This scientific event of world-wide importance encompassed four conferences (ICMT, TAP, SC, TOOLS Europe) and eight tematic workshops.

ICMT 2011, held at 27-28 June, featured a paper on the topic of EMF-IncQuery by researchers from our group. The corresponding talk was given by Gábor Bergmann on 27 June, and was received with interest, sparking debate that pointed towards interesting new research directions. Read more »

Ábel Hegedüs, PhD student, presented research results of the group at the 8th IEEE International Conference on Software Engineering and Formal Methods (SEFM) conference in Pisa (Italy) between September 13 and 16. 2010. The presented paper deals with back-annotation of simulation traces using model transformation techniques. Apart from the talk, the group was represented with a poster and a tool demo as well.

Three PhD students from the group displayed their research results on the Conference of PhD Students in Computer Science (CSCS) in Szeged between June 29 and July 2. 2010. Tamás Demián gave an introduction in Common Logic, István Szombath talked about his results about infrastructure dependency detection, while Zoltán Ujhelyi presented a type checker solution for model transformation programs.

The talk of István Szombath was rewarded with an Excellent Talk of the Session award.
