The Tenth International Conference on Model & Data Engineering (MEDI) will
be held from 21 to 23 June 2021 in Tallinn, Estonia. Its main objective is
to provide a forum for the dissemination of research accomplishments and to
promote the interaction and collaboration between the models and data research
communities. MEDI 2021 provides an international platform for the presentation
of research on models and data theory, development of advanced technologies
related to models and data and their advanced applications. <br>
This international scientific event, initiated by researchers from
Euro-Mediterranean countries, also aims at promoting the creation of north-south
scientific networks, projects and faculty/student exchanges. </span></p>

The conference is accompanied by satellite events, including demonstration
papers and workshops. <br>
<br>
Workshops <br>
--------- <br>
<br>
Typically, workshops focus on multiple topics related to model and data
engineering. For this edition, we would also like to encourage workshops
focusing on practical applications of research in business/industry and on
joint projects run by industry and research entities. <br>
<br>
The list of workshop topics is not limited to the aforementioned and we
encourage representatives of research and business to submit workshop proposals
promoting their achievements. <br>
