Scope
Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) offers a powerful mechanism for managing the inherent complexity of sustainability, enabling stakeholders to articulate sustainability goals, explore “what-if” scenarios across multiple dimensions (i.e., social, economic, environmental, technical, individual), and formally reason about trade-offs among often conflicting objectives. Yet despite this potential, research specifically at the intersection of MDE and sustainability remains scarce and fragmented; relevant modeling expertise exists across domains but has not been systematically consolidated. Advanced MDE techniques such as collaborative and blended modeling further offer underexplored opportunities for participatory sustainability modeling.
This workshop addresses this gap along two complementary directions: the application of MDE toward engineering sustainable systems (sustainability by MDE), and the investigation of sustainability within MDE practices and tooling themselves (sustainability of MDE). It aims to highlight recent results, consolidate open challenges, and identify research opportunities across both directions, contributing to a shared body of knowledge at this intersection. The workshop welcomes both academic researchers and industrial practitioners working on either or both of these dimensions.
