SAM2020 - Languages, Methods, and Tools for AI-based Systems
Co-located with MODELS 2020.
October 19-20, 2020,

Important :
SAM 2020 conference took place fully virtual in October 2020 the same as MODELS 2020. This is due to the COVID19 global pandemic and in particular the traveling restrictions and constraints world-wide. Please note that all the accepted papers at SAM 2020 are published in the ACM proceedings and the the authors of selected long research papers at SAM 2020 were invited to submit revised, extended versions of their manuscripts to a special section of the Elsevier Journal of Information and Software Technology (IST) as planned.

The System Analysis and Modelling (SAM) conference provided an open arena for participants from academia and industry to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, experiences and concerns in modelling and analysis of complex systems using ITU-T's Specification and Description Language (SDL‑2010) and Message Sequence Chart (MSC) notations, as well as related system design languages — including but not limited to UML, ASN.1, TTCN, SysML and the User Requirements Notation (URN).
SAM 2020 was coordinated with MODELS 2020, originally planned to be held in Montreal, Canada.
Scope and Topics
The 2020 edition of SAM was under the theme “Languages, Methods, and Tools for AI-based systems, including languages and methods standardized by the ITU-T, and domain-specific languages. Also included are software engineering technologies, such as for requirements engineering, software verification and validation, and automated code generation. Authors are therefore invited to submit papers related to this year’s theme including the following non-exclusive list of topics:
- Evolution of languages: domain-specific languages, modular language design, language extensions, semantics and evaluation, methodology for application.
- Model-driven development: analysis and transformation of models, reuse approaches, verification and validation of models, systematic testing based on and applied to models.
- System engineering models: semantics of system models, refinement of system designs into implementations, integration of system and software design models, non-functional aspects (such as performance, quality of service, real-time aspects, security, etc.) in system models, multi-core models.
- Industrial application and tool reports: industrial usage reports, standardization activities, tool support and frameworks, domain-specific applicability (such as telecommunications, aerospace, automotive, Internet of Things, control, etc.), with special emphasis on AI-based systems. Such reports should focus on what is effective (and ineffective) in applying a technique preferably backed up by some measurements. A report should not just describe an implementation, though new application areas are of interest.
Authors of selected long research papers accepted at SAM 2020 were invited to submit revised, extended versions of their manuscripts to a special section of the Elsevier Journal of Information and Software Technology (IST)
The conference programme will include:
- Presentations from invited speakers
- Presentation of research papers
- Presentation of industrial experiences
- Tool demonstrations
