TRACK DESCRIPTION:
The growth of the Internet and its acceptance among both organizations and
end users has paved the way to the rise of ASP vendors. ASP vendors are
companies that deliver and manage applications and computer services from
remote data centers to multiple users via the Internet. According to
Gartner Group, the ASP market will reach $25 billion by 2004 compared to
$3.5 billion in year 2000. The major service categories dominating the ASP
market include business application hosting, ERP, E-commerce, customer
relationship management (CRM), supply chain management (SCM), digital
content storage, Web hosting, and wireless applications. ASP vendors make
these applications available to be accessed by their clients via the
Internet or the dedicated communication networks. The ASP service delivery
model allows ASP vendors to reduce the cost of services through the economy
of scale, and at the same time, the valuable resources of the ASP clients
can be freed up to focus on their core competencies. Moreover, this model
reduces the importance of national boundaries in service providing and
allows an increasing level of global IT service delivery not seen before.
ASP model differs from the traditional outsourcing in a number of aspects
including the types of applications, client organizations, methods of
service delivery, pricing structure, contractual agreement, and
client-vendor relationships. Therefore, it offers new and fruitful areas
for academic research opportunities. This track provides researchers
worldwide with a forum for further exploring these issues related to global
e-sourcing and ASP.
RECOMMENDED TOPICS
Papers (completed or in-progress: about 20 double spaced pages),
extended abstracts (completed or in-progress research: about 4-6 pages),
panel and workshop proposals (2-4 pages) dealing with (but not limited
to) the following topics are invited. Please mention the name of this
track on the cover page.
Topics include, but are not limited to:
- Opportunities and difficulties in global e-sourcing
- Global B2B services
- ASP value chain analysis
- Global business and technical collaboration
- Service Level Agreement (SLA) and contractual issues in global
e-sourcing and ASP
- Global e-sourcing and ASP business models
- Client-vendor relationships in global e-sourcing and ASP
- Cultural issues in global outsourcing
- Security issues in global e-sourcing and ASP
- Service quality issues in global e-sourcing and ASP

Subject: CfP: BPMJ Special Issue on Internet-enabled Workflow Management
Date: Wed, 26 Sep 2001 23:22:32 +0200
From: Michael zur Muehlen <ismizu(a)WI.UNI-MUENSTER.DE>
To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE
BUSINESS PROCESS MANAGEMENT JOURNAL
(www.emeraldinsight.com/bpmj.htm)
CALL FOR PAPERS FOR A SPECIAL ISSUE ON
INTERNET-ENABLED WORKFLOW MANAGEMENT
Submission Deadline: April 15th, 2002
The use of workflow management systems for the automation of business
processes promises significant efficiency gains for the enterprise through
the automated coordination of activities, process participants and the
integration of applications. While workflow management technology has found
widespread acceptance since its inception in the late 1970s, in many cases
the use of these systems is limited to internal processes of the enterprise.
Recently, the use of workflow management systems in cross-organizational
scenarios, such as b2b-transactions, has received significant attention in
both industry and academia. On the business side, the standardization of
XML-based business data exchanges (such as eb-XML, SOAP or Wf-XML) enables
companies to integrate their processes independent of the underlying
technology. On the technical side, the use of application architecture
frameworks such as CORBA or J2EE enables designers of workflow applications
to integrate both legacy systems and internet technology with relative ease.
As a result, businesses have different options to 'e-enable' their processes
with no clear guidance on how to find the most suitable solution for their
needs. A framework for the design and application of internet-enabled
workflow management systems could help bridge this gap.
Papers are invited for a special issue of the Business Process Management
Journal (BPMJ) on 'Internet-enabled Workflow Management'. The aim is to
publish original work highlighting current issues surrounding the areas of
e-Business process automation, cross-organizational workflows and the use of
internet technology for the design of workflow applications. Conceptual and
analytical models, strategic frameworks, surveys, and case studies focusing
on technical, organizational and economic issues with regard to
internet-enabled workflow management systems are welcome from both the
academic and industrial community. Contributed papers may deal with, but are
not limited to:
* Modeling Methodologies for Internet-ready Processes
* Cross-Organizational Workflow Management
* Internet-based Process Integration
* Standards-based Process Automation
* Monitoring and Controlling of Inter-Organizational Processes
* Internet Technologies for Process Automation
* Architecture and Design of e-Business Workflow Applications
Manuscripts should be 3000-5000 words in length, single-spaced, full
justified and in A4 Word format. All contributions are subjected to a
double-blind review by at least two experts of the field. Manuscripts,
following the BPMJ guidelines (http://www.emeraldinsight.com/bpmj.htm),
should be sent as two Word file attachments to the guest editors Edward A.
Stohr (estohr(a)stevens-tech.edu) and Michael zur Muehlen
(ismizu(a)wi.uni-muenster.de) by April 15th, 2002. The first file should
contain the title page giving the name(s) and full address(es) of the
author(s), the title of the paper, its word count (maximum 5000 words), 5
keywords, and an abstract of 200 words. The second file should contain the
title of the paper, 5 keywords, a 200-word abstract, and the full body of
the paper. Any information that reveals the identity of the author(s) should
be removed. If you have any questions about the format of your submission of
would like to receive guidance with regard to the fit of your submission,
please contact the guest editors in advance.

CAiSE'02
The 14th International Conference on
Advanced Information Systems Engineering
Toronto, Canada
27 - 31 May, 2002
http://www.cs.toronto.edu/caise02
Conference Aims and Objectives
Since the late 1980's, the CAiSE conferences have provided a forum for
presentation and exchange of research results and practical experiences
within the field of Information Systems Engineering. CAiSE02 will be held
for the first time outside Europe, in the cosmopolitan city of Toronto.
Toronto has been called the most multicultural city in the world, hosting
more than 50,000 new immigrants per year, and boasting more than 100
languages spoken by some of its citizens. As in previous years, the
conference programme will feature invited talks, technical paper
presentations, workshops, tutorials and panel discussions.
Conference Theme
Web-based systems have become the status quo in information systems
engineering practice in a very short time. This change poses significant
challenges to the research community, such as faster time-to-market,
increased concerns for security and performance, open and evolving software
architectures and more. The main theme of the CAiSE'02 conference will be
"Web-Based Information Systems" and the conference programme will address
both technologies and methodologies for building them.
Relevant Topics
Methodologies and Models for IS, Requirements Engineering for IS, Supply
Chain Management, Infrastructure for Internet Business Models, Data
Warehousing & OLAP, E-government, Information Quality, Privacy, and
Security, Web Content Management and Distribution, Workflow Systems,
Knowledge Management, Business Process Models and Engineering, Metadata and
Ontologies, Cooperative Work Support, Novel Database Technologies,
Distributed, Web and Mobile Architectures, OO and Agent-Oriented
Technologies and their Applications to IS Development, XML and IS, Languages
and Protocols for IS, Component-ware and IS, IS Reengineering, Advanced
Application Domains, Validation and Evaluation of IS Models.

CALL FOR PAPERS
SPECIAL ISSUE OF JOURNAL OF GLOBAL INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (JGITM)

The scope of information technology (IT) involves issues and variables that
touch every facet of business organizations. Among other things, information
technology allows business organizations to overcome restrictions of time,
geography, and relationships. In the last decade, organizations have
continued to struggle to develop effective strategies to expand their
operations to the global economy. But developments in computing and
communications technology have eased the task of managing these global
organizations. However this highly potent global economy requires companies
to be agile, flexible and highly competitive. Technology issues pertaining
to this global economy such as technology infrastructure, global supply
chains and customers, cultural factors, national issues, political legal and
social issues, all deserve the attention of researchers. Organizations
facing challenges in the form of new competitors, coordination of global
activities across various interorganizational systems, the questions of
standards have to rely heavily on information technology. Clearly, the role
of global IT has gone beyond that of support to that of an enabling agent.
This changing role of IT in the operations of global organizations continues
to be researched and investigated. But has this research provided us with
any reliable foundation or theory for understanding the role of global IT in
the context of the current business environment? It is increasingly clear
that as the discipline of global IT evolves, researchers need to examine
underlying frameworks in an attempt to answer the following key questions:
1. Have we established a theory or theories, which have a clear set of
definitions and methods that define this area?
2. Do we have a consensus on what we are trying to measure while we
conduct research in this area?
3. What are the common threads of research in the global IT area and is
there continuity in the research being conducted?
4. What are the future implications for researchers in this area and are
there any concepts that need to be integrated with existing frameworks that
would help define this area of research?
In our attempt to address all or some of the above questions we are inviting
papers ranging from conceptual frameworks, models, theoretical reasoning and
support. We would like to encourage author(s) to extend their work beyond
examining artifacts in global IT. Please note that we are looking for
articles that present radical ways to address the area of global IT or
sub-areas within this domain of research. Manuscripts raising new research
questions and assumptions (challenging existing ones), presenting innovative
ways of investigating global IT and finally resulting in articles that can
stand the test of time. We are not interested in articles that stop at
examining current issues in global IT. Author(s) need to dedicate a major
effort in extending the current models, frameworks and assumptions in global
IT and emerge as visionaries. We are also keenly aware that given the nature
of this special issue the manuscripts will range from theoretical or
conceptual to case studies and may involve more data driven methodologies.
Author(s) are encouraged to support their efforts with anecdotal evidence
(where appropriate). Topics may include but are not limited to:
· Global IT Research Frameworks
· Studies that validate and/or extend existing global IT frameworks
· New ways of conceptualizing global IT
· Evolution of research in global IT
· Classification schemes, typologies involving issues in global IT
· Conceptualizing and developing new models in global IT
It is also important to note that all of the above articles can be applied
to any (sub)area within the global IT domain. The editors strongly recommend
that author(s) submit a 2-page proposal to receive initial feedback.
Submissions
Please submit as a Microsoft Word attachment by email. Approximate size of
the paper should be 20-25 double-spaced pages.
