The importance of models, and their role as primary software development artifacts, has increased rapidly by the vastly growing interest towards model-driven engineering (MDE) practices. In this context models are being evolved, simplified and/or extended over a longer period of time, which leads to the need of keeping different versions, of comparing them, of measuring their (un)similarity, and of merging different models into one.
The aim of this workshop to bring together researchers and practitioners from many of these diverse areas to discuss the fundamental principles, state of the art, and critical challenges of model comparison and versioning. The most relevant research questions shall be identified, an overview on applications shall be collected, and the research community in this area shall be brought together.
