* Conference background and goals
The IADIS CELDA 2008 conference aims to address the main issues
concerned with evolving learning processes and supporting pedagogies and
applications in the digital age. There have been advances in both
cognitive psychology and computing that have affected the educational
arena. The convergence of these two disciplines is increasing at a fast
pace and affecting academia and professional practice in many ways.
Paradigms such as just-in-time learning, constructivism,
student-centered learning and collaborative approaches have emerged and
are being supported by technological advancements such as simulations,
virtual reality and multi-agents systems. These developments have
created both opportunities and areas of serious concerns. This
conference aims to cover both technological as well as pedagogical
issues related to these developments. Main tracks have been identified.
However innovative contributions that do not easily fit into these areas
will also be considered as long as they are directly related to the
overall theme of the conference – cognition and exploratory learning in
the digital age.
* Format of the Conference
The conference will comprise of invited talks and oral presentations for
discussion-oriented papers. The proceedings of the conference will be
published in the form of a book and CD-ROM.
Authors of the best published papers in the CELDA 2008 proceedings will
be invited to publish extended versions of their papers in a special
issue of the Educational Technology Research and Development Journal
(ETR&D) - ISSN: 1042-1629 (print version) ISSN: 1556-6501 (electronic
version).
* Types of submissions
Full papers, Short Papers and Reflection papers. All submissions will go

FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS
PoEM�2008
IFIP WG 8.1 Working Conference on
The Practice of Enterprise Modeling: from Business Strategies to
Enterprise Architectures Stockholm, Sweden
http://www.his.se/iki/PoEM2008
IMPORTANT DATES
30 June 2008, paper submission deadline
15 August 2008 notification of acceptance 12-13, November 2008, Conference
The proceedings will be published by Springer
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
Enterprise Modeling (EM) has gained substantial of popularity both in the
academic community and among practitioners. There is a variety of EM
methods, approaches, and tools developed and offered on the market. In
practice they are used for various purposes such as business strategy
development, process restructuring, as well as business and IT
architecture alignment and governance.
PoEM�08 aims to establish a dedicated forum where the use of EM in
practice is addressed by bringing together researchers, users and
practitioners. The conference program will feature paper presentations and
interactive discussion sessions. More specifically the goals of the
conference are:
- to develop a better understanding of the practice of EM
- to contribute to improved EM practice
- to share knowledge among researchers and practitioners
- to form a community of researcher and practitioners
- to develop a research agenda on the practice of EM
The conference theme is EM in different application contexts, e.g.
software development, including agile development, as well as business
development, governance, and change.
Topics relevant for submissions include, but are not limited to, the
following:
- Evaluation of EM methods from a practice perspective
- The process of modeling and guidelines for modeling
- Management of EM projects
- Use of EM in different contexts
- Facilitation and group dynamics
- The competency of modelers and modeling teams
- Model and process quality aspects
- Reuse of enterprise models
- Modeling languages
- The use of EM in different contexts
- Tools and workbenches
- Enterprise model management
- Success factors in EM
- Teaching the practice
- EM and agile development
- Enterprise knowledge architectures
- Standardization issues and reference models
- Method engineering in EM
- Concordance between EM and information systems development
Paper types:
Experience papers present problems or challenges encountered in practice,
relate success and failure stories, or report on industrial practices. The
focus is on 'what' and on lessons learned, not on an in-depth analysis of
'why'. The practice must be clearly described and its context must be
given. Readers should be able to draw conclusions for their own practice.
Research papers describe original research contributions (theoretical,
methodological or conceptual) to the area of EM. A research paper should
clearly describe the situation or problem that is tackled, the relevant
state of the art, the position or solution suggested and the potential or
the evaluated benefits of the contribution.
Evaluation papers evaluate existing problem situations or validate
proposed solutions with scientific means. Scientific reflection on
problems and practices in industry also falls into this category. The
topic of the evaluation presented in the paper as well as its causal or
logical properties must be clearly stated. The research method must be
sound and appropriate.
Idea papers can describe completely new research positions or approaches,
in order to face to a generic situation that arises because of, for
instance, new methods and tools or new types of emerging EM challenges.
They must describe precisely the situation and demonstrate the
shortcomings of the current methods, tools, ways of reasoning,
meta-models, etc.
