Preface
As Model Driven Engineering (MDE) is increasingly applied to larger and more complex
systems, the current generation of modelling and model management technologies are
being pushed to their limits in terms of capacity and efficiency. As such, additional
research and development is imperative in order to enable MDE to remain relevant with
industrial practice and to continue delivering its widely-recognised productivity, quality,
and maintainability benefits.
    The second edition of the BigMDE workshop (http://www.big-mde.eu/) has been co-
located with the Software Technologies: Applications and Foundations (STAF 2014) con-
ference. BigMDE 2014 provided a forum for developers and users of modelling and model
management languages and tools where to discuss different problems and solutions related
to scalability aspects of MDE, including

   • Working with large models

   • Collaborative modelling (version control, collaborative editing)

   • Transformation and validation of large models

   • Model fragmentation and modularity mechanisms

   • Efficient model persistence and retrieval

   • Models and model transformations on the cloud

   • Visualization techniques for large models

    Many people contributed to the success of BigMDE 2014. We would like to truly
acknowledge the work of all Program Committee members, and reviewers for the timely
delivery of reviews and constructive discussions given the very tight review schedule. Fi-
nally, we would like to thank the authors, without them the workshop simply would not
exist.
