This paper provides an introduction to the first workshop on the modelling of dynamical hierarchies. We focus on a number of relevant issues including the difference between structural and dynamical hierarchies, different biological and artificial metaphors related to this subject and a small set of attempts to design software artifacts which build on these notions. We conclude with questions for discussion.
