Model Based Engineering (MBE) is on the advance. The reason for this advance is the promise of handling the increase of complexity within the software and its development process by raising the level of abstraction using models as information storage. In the past years tool vendors adapted the approach of using models as information storage of their applications utilizing the advantages of these technologies (e. g. model querying, model consistency, implicit interface, notification mechanisms). Other vendors now provide the possibility of model import and export, some tool vendors do not respond to this trend out of different reasons so that adapters are provided by 3rd party vendors. All that shows, that MBE has made good progress, concerning the information representation. Now that the tool internal information becomes available as models, the problem of integration and distribution still exists, and is one of the next barriers to tackle on the way to an efficient and productive MBE approach. The main concern of this workshop is the integration and distribution of these information and tools and the underlying techniques which are required.
