============================

42nd International Conference on Conceptual Modeling (ER 2023)
Lisbon, Portugal
06 - 09 November, 2023

============================

The International Conference on Conceptual Modeling is the main international forum for discussing the state of the art, emerging issues, and future challenges in research and practice on conceptual modeling. Topics of interest span the entire spectrum of conceptual modeling including research and practice in areas such as theories of concepts and ontologies underlying conceptual modeling, techniques for transforming conceptual models into effective implementations, and methods and tools for developing and communicating conceptual models.

ER 2023 will be held in Lisbon, Portugal, at the Congress Center of the Instituto Superior Técnico located in Alameda, in the heart of Lisbon.

============================
Call for Workshop Proposals

The workshops will serve as an intensive collaborative forum for exchanging innovative ideas. Topics of interest include foundations of conceptual models, theories of concepts, ontology-driven conceptual modeling and analysis, methods and tools for developing, communicating, consolidating, and evolving conceptual models, and techniques for transforming conceptual models into effective implementations.
