This book constitutes thoroughly revised and selected papers from the 5th International
Conference on Model-Driven Engineering and Software Development MODELSWARD 2017 held in Porto
Portugal in February 2017. The 20 thoroughly revised and extended papers presented in this
volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 91 submissions. They contribute to the
development of highly relevant research trends in model-driven engineering and software
development such as methodologies for MDD development and exploitation model-based testing
model simulation domain-specific modeling code generation from models new MDD tools
multi-model management model evolution and industrial applications of model-based methods and
technologies.
