CFP: 1st Intl. Workshop on Theory and Applications of
Process Visualization (TAProViz'12)
Visualizations can make the structure and dependencies
between elements in processes accessible in order to support
users who need to analyze process models and their
instances. However, effectively visualizing processes in a
user-friendly way is often a big challenge, especially for
complex process models which can consist of hundreds of
process components (e.g., process activities, data flows,
and resources) and thousands of running process instances in
different execution states.
Many challenges remain to be addressed within the broad area
of process visualization such as: scalability,
human-computer interaction, cognitive aspects, applicability
of different approaches, collaboration, process evolution,
run-time requirements of process instances and applications,
etc.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
Visual Metaphors in Processes
Visual Design and Aesthetics for Processes
Visualization of Dynamic Data in Processes
Change Visualization for Processes
Interface and Interaction Techniques for Process Visualization
Visualization Techniques for Collaboration and Distributed
Processes
Visualization of Large-scale Processes
Cognition and Perception in Process Visualization
Evaluation and User Studies of Process Visualization
Visual Modeling Languages
Analysis Techniques and Visualization for Processes
Process Visualization of Large Screens
Mobile Process Visualization
Visualization Tools and Systems for Processes
Visualization Techniques for Processes
Process Visualization and Sonification
Virtual World Process Visualization
Immersive Process Modeling Approaches
3D Process Visualization Approaches
Format of the Workshop
The 1/2 day workshop will comprise accepted papers and tool
presentations. Papers should be submitted in advance and
will be reviewed by at least three members of the program
committee. All accepted papers will appear in the workshop
proceedings published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in
Business Information Processing (LNBIP) series. There will
be a single LNBIP volume dedicated to the proceedings of all
BPM workshops. As this volume will appear after the
conference, there will be informal proceedings during the
workshop. At least one author for each accepted paper should
register for the workshop and present the paper.
Important Dates
Deadline for workshop paper submissions: 1 June 2012
Notification of acceptance: 2 July 2012
Camera-ready version: 30 July 2012
Workshop: 3 September 2012
Paper Submission
Prospective authors are invited to submit papers for
presentation in any of the areas listed above.
Three types of submissions are possible:
full papers (12 pages long) reporting mature research results
position papers reporting research that may be in
preliminary stage that has not yet been evaluated
tool reports
Position papers and tool reports should be no longer than 6
pages.
Only papers in English will be accepted and must present
original research contributions not concurrently submitted
elsewhere. Papers should be submitted in the LNBIP
(www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-791344-0)
format. The title page must contain a short abstract, a
classification of the topics covered, preferably using the
list of topics above, and an indication of the submission
category (regular paper/position paper/tool report).
All accepted workshop papers will be published by Springer
as a post-workshop proceedings volume in the series Lecture
Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP). Hard
copies of these proceedings will be shipped to all
registered participants approximately four months after the
workshops, while preliminary proceedings will be distributed
during the workshop.
Submitted papers will be evaluated, in a double blind
manner, on the basis of significance, originality, technical
quality, and exposition. Papers should clearly establish
their research contribution and the relation to the theory
and application of process visualization.
Registration
Accepted papers imply that at least one of the authors will
register for the BPM2012 (http://bpm2012.ut.ee/cfp/) and
present the paper at the TAProViz workshop.

From: Patas, Janusch <j.patas(a)fs.de>
To: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org>, <wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de>
*FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS*
18th Americas Conference on Information Systems
Seattle, Washington, August 9-12, 2012
*TRACK*: Strategic Use of Information Technology
*MINI-TRACK*: IT Governance, Alignment, and Architectures
*Description*
An integral part of IT management is the planning, steering,
controlling, and monitoring of the enterprise IT systems and
infrastructure in an efficient and effective way. On the one
hand, IT managers have to satisfy business requirements and
demonstrate the value-generating abilities of IT to the
business. On the other hand, information technology and
concepts of its application are evolving rapidly and thus
managers have to decide which innovation out of many should
be adopted within their respective IT organization.
In the last years, research and practice have developed and
highlighted the benefits of new concepts to cope with these
challenges. These are for instance concepts from: IT
governance, IT alignment as well as enterprise architecture
management. Furthermore, a lot of (best practice) reference
models and frameworks (e. g. COBIT, ITIL, CMMI), standards
(ISO 38500, 20000, etc.), and tools were developed and
refined. They all provide methodological support to IT
management.
The mini track "IT Governance, Alignment, and Architectures"
aims to review and discuss the state of the art of
methodological support from a holistic perspective and will
debate new approaches to support IT governance, business/IT
alignment and IT architectures. In addition, new challenges
and empirical findings should be analyzed within this
domain. Both conceptual and empirical papers are welcome and
will be considered for this Mini-Track.
*Research papers of interest include, but are not limited to:*
- Relationship between and linking of IT governance and
enterprise architectures
- Interdependencies between IT governance and enterprise
architecture
- IT governance frameworks and their application
- Benefits of frameworks and standards in IT governance
- Comparison, mapping and integration of IT governance/ best
practice frameworks
- Methodological support for IT governance and business/ IT
alignment
- IT governance architectures
- Maturity models for IT governance, alignment and
enterprise architectures
- IT processes and controls
- Impact of IT governance on the business value of IT
- Education in IT governance
- Case studies in IT governance / enterprise architecture

Adoption and Business Models

CALL FOR PAPERS
18th Americas Conference on Information Systems
Seattle, Washington, August 9-12, 2012
Track: Enterprise Systems (SIGENTSYS)
Minitrack: Enterprise System Adoption and Business Models
DESCRIPTION
Enterprise systems (ES) are extremely complex software
packages designed for integrating data flow across an entire
company, emerged from earlier MRP, MRP II and ERP systems.
Over time, ES have expanded to include more and more areas
of an organizationâ??s operations, and have extended
organizational boundaries and support interorganizational
activities. Todayâ??s enterprise systems are expected to
support modern organizations that operate in dynamic and
turbulent business environments, compete in global markets,
face mergers and takeovers, and participate in business
alliances and joint ventures.
Frequently, the adoption of an ES is an enormous challenge
for an organization, due to system complexity,
organizational context and the people involved in the
implementation project. Usually, ES adoption is a long and
multi-stage process during which various problems and
complications may occur. Moreover, ES adoption projects
typically involve a large number of stakeholders
representing different departments, various organizational
hierarchies, and often external companies operating in
various industries. These stakeholders may have conflicting
interests, and their own definitions of project success.
Overall, ES implementation projects tend to be very unique
and challenging endeavors.
Providers of enterprise systems have traditionally relied on
strong revenues from maintenance fees, in addition to
license revenue. Nowadays, shorter product lifecycles,
rising consulting revenues, Open Source Software and SaaS
are impacting their business models. ES providers have the
challenge of delivering systems which are highly
customizable software products, able to fit the needs of a
variety of adopters. This might be important since, as prior
research suggests, the issue of alignment between ES and
adopting organizations is one of the determinants of
successful enterprise system implementation.
This mini-track invites papers that examine various aspects
related to the determinants of ES success and business
models. Both empirical and theoretical papers are invited.
The general research questions addressed in this mini-track
can be formulated as follows: What are the mechanisms
determining successful ES adoption? What are the underlying
business models of companies delivering successfully
adaptable ES? What kind of business models exist?
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
motivation and justification for ES adoption,
* alignment between ES and adopting organization,
* barriers and impediments to ES adoption success,
* risk factors in ES adoption,
* critical failure factors for ES adoption,
* critical success factors for ES adoption,
* understanding of ES adoption success,
* evaluation and benchmarking of ES projects,
* multi-cultural and multi-national issues,
* multiple stakeholder perspective in ES adoption and use,
* business model frameworks,
* impact of new trends within the software industry on
business models,
* business model innovation for standard software companies,
* implications of shorter product lifecycles on business
models,
* SaaS related business models,
* open source software related business models.

September 3, 2012
Tallinn, Estonia
In conjunction with the *10th International Conference on
Business Process Management (BPM 2012)*
http://bpm2012.ut.ee/
------- CALL FOR PAPERS -------
*
*
*Aims and Scope: Academia and Industry*
=============================
Current complexity of corporative world demands dynamic and
flexible IT infrastructure to provide technical solutions
for conducting business. Business Process Management (BPM)
has been providing important technological support to
improve organization competitiveness. In order to increase
dynamism and competitiveness, BPM can benefit from reuse
techniques and tools at several stages of business process
life cycle.
The 3rd International Workshop on Reuse in Business Process
Management will be dedicated to explore any type of reuse in
the BPM domain, taking into account both the results of
research in academia and the results of applications in
industry.
It will be a forum to discuss systematic reuse applied to
BPM at its various levels and different life cycle stages,
including:
(1) basic service-oriented foundation level: including
service development, description, publication, discovery,
selection, negotiation, and aggregation;
(2) management and monitoring upper level: including
business process modeling, execution, monitoring,
administration, and optimization.
Moreover, the impact of reuse on business- and
service-oriented engineering as well as analyzing how it can
help in the design of higher quality process models are very
important topics to be discussed.
Different existing reuse approaches and techniques can be
extended to be applied to this fairly new domain, including:
software product line or software product families;
variability descriptors; design patterns such as feature
modeling; aspect-orientation; and component-based
development. In addition, completely novel approaches and
techniques can be proposed. Their application must also be
discussed, preferably under experimentation as well as
results analysis.
*Suggested Topics*
=============
Possible topics for the workshop papers are (but are not
restricted to) - related to both research in academia or
applications in industry:
- Product Lines (Product Families) for BPM
- Patterns for business process and workflows
- Variability descriptors applied in BPM elements
- Feature modeling applied in BPM elements
- Aspect-oriented extensions for BPM
- Component-based Development and Service and
Business-oriented Engineering
- Reuse in Service-oriented Architecture (SOA)
- Reuse in service development, negotiation, composition
- Quality of Service (QoS) and Reuse
- Reuse in SaaS (Software as a Service) approaches
- Reusable asset libraries for BPM
- Reuse in semantic Web services
- Ontologies in business process modeling
- Empirical findings related to reuse in the BPM domain
- Surveys related to reuse in the BPM domain
- Reuse in business process modeling, execution, monitoring
- Reuse in electronic contract establishment
- Case studies and experiments results related to reuse in BPM
- Analysis of reuse related to Web services, WSDL, WS-BPEL
- Reuse in e-Business, e-Commerce, B2B, B2C, virtual
organizations
- Web services, WSDL, WS-BPEL and extensions to improve reuse
- Model-driven approaches for reuse

BPMDS 2012
International Conference on Business Process Modeling, Development, and
Support (BPMDS'2012)
the 13th edition of the BPMDS series
held in Conjunction with CAiSE’12
25-26 June 2012, Gdansk, Poland
Papers submission deadline: March 4th, 2012
http://bpmds.org/
SPONSORS:
--------
- Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAiSE). BPMDS
is officially linked on an ongoing basis to the CAiSE conference series
(http://www.caise2012.univ.gda.pl/).
- International Federation for Information Processing Working Group 8.1
(IFIP WG 8.1) (https://research.idi.ntnu.no/ifip-wg81/). Sponsor since 2009.
ABOUT THE BPMDS CONFERENCE:
--------------------------
The topics addressed by the BPMDS series are focused on IT support for
business processes. This is one of the keystones of Information Systems
theory. We strongly believe that any major conference in the area of
Information Systems needs to address such topics independently of the
current fashion. The continued interest in these topics on behalf of the
IS community is reflected by the success of the last BPMDS workshops and
the recent emergence of new conferences devoted to the theme.
The BPMDS series has produced twelve workshops from 1998 to 2011. From
2011, BPMDS became a two-day working conference attached to CAiSE
(Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering).
While changing the status of BPMDS, we preserved the basic principles of
the BPMDS series:
1. BPMDS serves as a meeting place for researchers and practitioners in
the areas of business development, and business applications (software)
development
2. The aim of the event is mainly discussions, rather than presentations.
3. Each event has a theme that is, from now, mandatory for visionary papers.
4. Each event's results are, usually, published in a special issue of an
international journal.
The goals, format, and history of BPMDS can be found on the web site:
http://www.ibissoft.se/bpmds.html
BACKGROUND AND AIMS:
-------------------
As a working conference, we would like to attract more papers describing
mature research, still giving place to industrial reports and visionary
papers. In addition, we will have a theme whose relevance will be the
main criterion for the selection of visionary papers only. We no longer
require for full research papers and experience reports to be directly
connected to this theme (they still need to be explicitly relevant to
BPMDS though). We only suggest to the authors of research papers and
experience reports, wherever possible, to make connection to the theme.
The theme chosen for BPMDS'12 visionary papers is:
"Business processes and Business Process Management in the Cloud"
We invite the visionaries (from research and industry) to exploit this
theme in relation to BPMDS. We also welcome research papers that include
ideas on how theoretical results discussed can be used in practice, as
well as experience reports on using theories in practice.
TOPICS FOR DISCUSSION:
----------------------
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Theoretical foundations for analyzing, modeling, simulating or
executing business processes
- Business process modeling languages, notations and methods
- Multi-perspectives on business process modeling: integration and coherence
- A broad view on strategy, business processes, people and IT:
alignment, fit and coherence
- Dynamic configuration; modeling by reuse
- Granularity, development of reusable and context-aware components;
modeling for reuse
- Domain specific reference models
- Business-IT alignment through business processes
- Resource management in business process modeling and support
- User-oriented aspects of the business process modeling and support
- Cross-organizational business processes
- Business process change management and governance issues
- Verification and validation of business process models
- Variability and adaptability of business process models
- Efficiency, adequacy, flexibility, agility, compliance, reliability,
security in business process modeling and execution
- Metrics, maturity and continuous improvement
- Business process support architectures and platforms
- BPMDS based on a service-oriented architecture
- BPMDS combined with social software and social networks
- Mobile technologies and context aware business process modeling
SUBMISSIONS:
-----------
Papers submission deadline: March 4th, 2012
Prospective conference participants are invited to submit a paper that
concerns business process modeling and development, and business process
support (development of software dedicated to business processes) and
that may be related to one or more of the topics for discussion listed
above. We solicit the papers (both research papers and experience
reports) that contain results worth of discussion. For full research
papers, it means that reported research should be in an advance stage
and a paper includes results and at least partial evaluation.
Thus three kinds of submissions are possible:
(1) Full research papers.
(2) Experience reports, which should follow guidelines in
http://processplatsen.ibissoft.se/node/72.
(3) Idea papers related to the focus theme, devoted to 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 challenges; the compliance to the focus theme is
mandatory for idea papers, which should describe precisely the situation
and demonstrate the shortcomings of current methods, tools, ways of
reasoning, meta-models, etc.
Papers of all submission types should be of up to 15 pages. Please
follow the LNCS format instructions at
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html for all of them.
Papers should be submitted in Adobe PDF format. The results described
must be unpublished and must not be under review elsewhere. The papers
should be submitted through the conference management system available
at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bpmds2012
E-mail also your abstract as an attachment to
mailto:selmin.nurcan@univ-paris1.fr
PUBLICATIONS:
------------
The conference proceedings will be published in a Springer LNBIP volume
(joint with EMMSAD), "Enterprise, Business-Process and Information
Systems Modeling”, as the three previous years (LNBIP 29, LNBIP 50 and
LNBIP 81).
After the BPMDS’12 conference, extended versions of the accepted papers
will be considered for publishing in a special issue of an international
journal. The previous special issues are:
- BPMDS’11 in IJISMD in progress
- BPMDS’10 selected papers in REJ in progress
- BPMDS’09 in IJISMD, vol. 2, issue 2, 2011
- BPMDS’08 in JSME under press (Journal of Software Maintenance and
Evolution: Research and Practice, incorporating SPIP since 2010)
- BPMDS'07 in IJBPIM, vol. 4, issue 2, 2009
- BPMDS'06 in IJBPIM, vol. 3, issue 1, 2008
