Model Driven Engineering (MDE) is a software development approach based on the use of models for the specification, design, analysis, synthesis, deployment, testing and maintenance of complex software systems, aimed to produce high quality systems at lower costs. Considering ever increasing complexity and cost of software development, MDE has received considerable attention from the industry and researchers in academia.

ECMFA is the key European conference aiming at advancement of techniques and furthering underlying knowledge related to Model Driven Engineering. In the past seven years, ECMFA has provided an ideal venue for the interaction among researchers interested in MDE both from the academia and industry. ECMFA 2013 will continue the series of successful events of the last years.
