This work provides a comprehensive overview of research and practical issues relating to component-based development information systems (CBIS). Spanning the organizational, developmental, and technical aspects of the subject, the original research included here provides fresh insights into successful CBIS technology and application. Part I covers component-based development methodologies and system architectures. Part II analyzes different aspects of managing component-based development. Part III investigates component-based development versus commercial off-the-shelf products (COTS), including the selection and trading of COTS products.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the workshops held at the 44th International Conference on Conceptual Modeling, ER 2025, which took place in Poitiers, France, during October 20–23, 2025.The 11 full papers and 2 other papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 26 submissions. The highly dynamic nature of ER workshops helps shape the future of conceptual modeling and contributes to its impact across diverse domains of knowledge, from life sciences to engineering and business.Five workshops were organized at ER 2025. These include:– Fundamentals of Conceptual Modeling (FCM)– 6th International Workshop on Conceptual Modeling for Life Sciences (CMLS)– 3rd International Workshop on Modeling in the Age of Large Language Models (LLM4Modeling)– 11th International Workshop on Ontologies and Conceptual Modeling (OntoCom)– 6th International Workshop on Quality and Measurement of Model-Driven Software Development (QUAMES)
