      <abstract>
        <p>In this talk we focus on the problem of model inconsistency management, an active field of research in model-driven software engineering. We focus on the activity of inconsistency resolution in particular. Automating the resolution of model inconsistencies turns out to be quite a challenge. We provide an overview of a number of research approaches to inconsistency resolution that have been proposed, discuss their limitations, and propose some novel research avenues in this important area of research.</p>
