The Nordic Workshop on Model Driven Software Engineering brings together industry  practitioners and academic researchers to share experiences and latest research on model driven software engineering and development. The workshop is a forum to present experiences and ongoing research in software engineering and model-driven engineering in particular, but also functions as an event for establishing co-operative research projects between the participants and working on joint research papers. The workshop provides an open forum, reserving ample time for discussions. The workshop has 7 editions of past history.  Prior instances were held in Reykjavik (Island), Ronneby (Sweden), Grimstad (Norway), Tampere (Finland), and Turku (Finland).  
Model driven software development approaches (MDE, MDA, MDD) have matured and grown out from an academic research community to gain wider industrial adoption. They are now perceived as one of the mainstream technologies to improve the productivity of software teams and the quality of products. Model-driven engineering can bring important benefits to software architectures; however there are still challenges to be addressed in order to realize a successful integration. This year, the NW-MoDE workshop focuses on the relations between model-driven paradigm and the software architecture field. This topic is also sustained by the existing overlap between the software architecture community and the model-driven one, as seen by the publications of the MODELS, ECSA, and formerly WICSA conferences. Thus, we encourage submissions from software architecture community discussing the viability, advantages, and weaknesses of model-driven architecture. We encourage in particular submissions presenting industrial experiences on integrating software architecture and model-driven engineering.
