-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CfP The 13th Workshop on Service-oriented Enterprise Architecture for Enterprise Engineering Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2021 17:25:17 +0000 From: Rainer Schmidt <Rainer.Schmidt(a)live.com> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> In conjunction with EDOC 2021 The 13th Workshop on Service-oriented Enterprise Architecture for Enterprise Engineering For engineering service-oriented enterprises in the era of cloud computing could EA notations be a lingua franca? SoEA4EE'2021 October 25, 2021, Gold Coast, Australia http://www.soea4ee.org/ Enterprise Engineering (EE) is the application of engineering principles to the design of Enterprise Architectures. It enables deriving the Enterprise Architecture from the enterprise goals and strategy and aligning it with the enterprise resources that also may be in the cloud or on the edge. Enterprise architecture is used to map the enterprise goal and strategy to the enterprise's resources (actors, assets, IT supports) and to support the evolution of this mapping. It also provides documentation on the assignment of enterprise resources to the enterprise goals and strategy, e.g. for establishing new business models such as platforms. There are different paradigms for creating enterprise architecture. The most important is to encapsulate the functionalities of IT resources as services. By this means, it is possible to clearly describe the contributions of IT both in terms of functionality and quality and to define a service-oriented enterprise architecture (SoEA). The goal of the workshop is to develop concepts and methods to assist the engineering and the management of service oriented enterprise architectures (SoEA) and the software systems supporting them. Topics for Discussion During the workshop we will discuss the following topics: 1. Digital enterprises, Industry 4.0 and Platforms - New trends in digitization for enterprise architecture and enterprise engineering e.g. Industry 4.0, platforms - Impacts of digitized products on enterprise architecture - Enterprise architecture - contributions and challenges for digital transformation, Industry 4.0 and platforms 2. SoEA and influence of Artificial Intelligence, social information systems and big data in Enterprise Engineering - Trends in SoEA to use the capabilities of Artificial Intelligence, social information systems and big data (volume, variety, velocity, veracity) - Impacts of Artificial Intelligence, social information systems and big data on the SoEA 3. SoEA with cloud- and edge-computing - Fitting SoEA with cloud and edge computing - Concepts and methods for mapping enterprise services to cloud- and edge-based resources - Concepts and methods for mapping non-functional requirements to cloud- and edge-based resources 4. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategy with the SoEA - Interdependencies between services and business goals - Concepts and methods to align services with the business strategy - New potentials and trends created by services to reengineer business processes - Quality issues and non-functional requirements for SoEA - Coherence of services with compliance requirements (among others, GDPR, ISO/IEC 27001 and 27002, ISO 15408) 5. Design of SoEA - Specifications of business, software, platform and infrastructure services - Matching business services with business processes - Lifecycle of business, software, platform and infrastructure services - Data-driven monitoring of the fulfilment of non-functional requirements (big data, IoT, ...) - Benchmarks and key performance indicators for services - Approaches the continual improvement of services 6. Governance of SoEA - Impacts of SoEA on the compliance and governance requirements - Meta-services for business, software, platform and infrastructure services - Building service (value) nets -consisting of business, software, platform and infrastructure services - Meta-services for cloud-environments - Impacts of VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity) on the governance of EA Submission Full papers (8-10 pages in the IEEE-CS format) describing mature results are sought. In addition, short/position papers (4-6 pages in the IEEE-CS format) may be submitted to facilitate discussion of recent research results and ongoing projects. Industry experience reports provide new insights gained in case studies or when applying service-oriented EA for enterprise engineering are also welcome. The paper selection will be based upon the relevance of a paper to the main topics, as well as upon its quality and potential to generate relevant discussion. All contributions will be peer reviewed based on the complete version, being full or short. Please note that all submissions should be made in PDF format and comply with the [IEEE Computer Society Conference Proceedings Format Guidelines] (http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html). The proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press and be made accessible through IEEE Xplore and the IEEE Computer Society Digital Library. Please submit your paper to Easychair at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=soea4ee2021 At least one author of each accepted workshop paper will have to register for the whole EDOC 2021 conference and attend the workshop to present the paper. Covid19 pandemic and the related Australian border restrictions place a number of constraints on the physical attendance of international delegates at the EDOC 2021. Thus, the participation to SoEA4EE 2021 will be remote for non-Australian delegates. The registration fee will be adapted to the situation. Analogously to previous years, there will be no workshop-only registration at EDOC 2021. If a paper is not presented in the workshop, it will be removed from the workshop proceedings published in the IEEE Xplore digital library. The SoEA4EE workshop has been a full day workshop in conjunction with EDOC'09 in New Zealand, with EDOC'10 in Brasil, EDOC'11 in Finland, EDOC 2012 in China, EDOC'2013 in Canada, EDOC'2014 in Germany, EDOC'2015 in Australia, EDOC'2016 in Austria, EDOC'2017 in Canada, EDOC'2018 in Stockholm, EDOC'2019 in Paris, and EDOC'2020 virtually in Eindhoven.

Social information systems 1 such as social media, Enterprise 2.0, and social platforms are spreading quickly in society, organizations, and economics. Enterprises use social information systems to improve their business processes and create new business models. The integration of business process management and social information systems becomes more and more widespread. New approaches for using social information systems in combination with business process management appear frequently. Social information systems are used both in external and internal business processes. Companies can co-create products and services, e.g., companies integrate customers into product development to capture ideas and features. Thus, communication with the customer is increasingly bi-directional. The integration of business process management and social information systems enables the creation of new business models using social platforms. Social platforms enable the creation of cross-side network effects and therefore called two- or multi-sided markets2. Prominent examples are TripAdvisor, UBER, and AirBnB. By using the value-creating mechanisms of social information systems, business models became possible, which were not realizable before. E.g., the AirBnB uses a crowdsourcing model for quality control by using users’ reviews of apartments. In this way, a quality assessment of products and services became possible that was too costly so far. Social information systems also create new possibilities to enhance internal business processes by improving the exchange of knowledge and information, to speed up decisions, etc. Social information systems enable value-creating interactions such as weak ties, social production, egalitarianism. These value-creating interactions open new possibilities and potentials for the design of processes. Weak ties enable the flexible integration of process participants, social production paves the way for the bottom-up definition of business processes, and egalitarian decisions change how decisions are made in business processes. The use of value-creating interactions is tightly intertwined with new forms of involvement of human beings into business process management. Human aspects complement the social perspective on business process management. The fact that more and more enterprises are using business process management implies that the human individual is involved in a multitude of business processes. Individuals must cope with multiple process contexts and thus must administer data appropriately. Digital assistants such as Alex integrate individuals in processes that could not interact with conventional computers. In this way, new forms of interaction between processes and humans arise. Furthermore, individuals must integrate the external business processes into their work environment or even to couple several external business processes. Human aspects of business process management relate to the individual who creates a process model, to the communication among people, during and after the process execution, and to the social process of collaborative modeling. They also relate to the interaction / collaboration / coordination / cooperation that should be implemented in the business process or to specific human-related aspects of the business process itself and their representations in models. Before this background, the goal of the workshop is to explore how social information systems integrate with business process management, and how business process management may profit from this integration. Furthermore, the workshop investigates the human aspects introduced into Business Process Management by involving human actors. Examples are the use of crowdsourced knowledge and tasks, the need for new user interfaces, e.g., augmented reality and voice bots. The workshop will discuss three topics. Social Business Process Management, Social Business and Platforms, and Human Aspects of Business Process Management. 1. Social Business Process Management (SBPM) - Social information systems in the BPM lifecycle e.g., Design, Deployment, Operation, and Evaluation - BPM methods and paradigms to cope with Social information systems - Influence of weak ties, social production, egalitarianism, and mutual service provisioning on BPM - Trust and reputation in business processes management carried through Social information systems - Influence of weak ties, social production, egalitarianism and mutual service provisioning in the design and management of business processes? - Integration of Social information systems with WFMS or other business process support systems? - Conceptual modelling for knowledge intensive and social business processes? 2. Social Business and Social Platforms: Social information systems supporting business processes - New opportunities offered by Social information systems for the support of business processes - Social platforms and their support for business processes and new business models - Value (co-)creation in social business and social platforms - Sociality requirements of business processes according to their nature (predictable/non predictable; production/collaborative/ad hoc) - Use of Wikis, Blogs etc. to support business processes - Fitting between types of Social information systems and phases of the BPM lifecycle - New trends in business knowledge modelling leveraged by social production 3. Human Aspects of Business Process Management - Concepts, technologies, and services to support individuals acting in business processes - Digital Assistants such as Google, Siri etc. in business process management and business processes - Human aspects of business process management - Human-centric business processes - Human resource management in business processes (workloads, skills, preferences, affinities, context, mobility, etc. …) Goal Based on the twelve previous successful BPMS2 workshops since 2008, the goal of the BPMS2’21 workshop is to promote the integration of business process management with social information systems and social software and to enlarge the community pursuing the theme. Workshop paper format Position papers of up to 2500 words are sought. Position papers that raise relevant questions, or describe successful or unsuccessful practice, or describe experience will all be welcome. Position papers will be assigned a 20-minute presentation. Short papers of up to 1000 words can also be submitted and will be assigned a 10-minute presentation.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] MISQ Author Development Workshop - Call for Applications Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2021 15:15:36 +0000 From: Andrew Burton-Jones <abj(a)business.uq.edu.au> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> MIS Quarterly Virtual Author Development Workshop Dear Colleagues: Continuing an important tradition, MIS Quarterly will hold a virtual author development workshop on June 19th and 26th, 2021. The workshop is designed to provide authors with (1) feedback from MISQ Senior Editors and Associate Editors on potential submissions to MISQ, as well as; (2) the opportunity to discuss with editors and other authors on how to develop papers for submission and resubmission to MISQ or elsewhere. The workshop has traditionally been offered in a face-to-face format alongside major IS conferences. Due to the disruptions to face-to-face conferences caused by the pandemic, MISQ will offer the workshop in a virtual format. The workshop will be offered in two time slots to accommodate for time differences: 1. Saturday [June 19th, 2021], 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM (Central European Time) / 3:00 PM - 7:00 PM (China Standard Time) (this timeframe is likely to work for AIS Regions 2 & 3) 2. Saturday [June 26th, 2021], 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM (Eastern Standard Time) (this timeframe is likely to work for AIS Region 1) Each of the workshop time slots has a limited capacity of 30 authors. The workshop will include: 1. Roundtable discussion led by editors on authors' submissions to the workshop. 2. Editors' panel discussion on developing papers for initial submission to MISQ. 3. Editors' panel discussion on revising papers for MISQ. In our experience, the workshop not only gives helpful insights for improving authors' papers, but also gives helpful insights into the culture and policies of the journal. This can be particularly helpful for new authors. There is no registration fee for the workshop. Important Dates March 15, 2021 Submissions Open April 30, 2021 Submissions Close May 22, 2021 Authors Receive Notification June 5, 2021 Peer Reviews Due June 19/26, 2021 Workshop Dates Submission Instructions 1. Authors should submit a single Word or PDF file that includes (a) their paper, which should be no more than 30 pages total length (double-spaced 12-point font; including figures, tables, and references), and (b) an optional one-page description of specific issue(s) which they would like feedback on at the workshop (to be inserted before the manuscript). 2. Authors whose submissions have been accepted for the workshop are also expected to submit peer reviews for other papers assigned to the same table. 3. Applications to the workshop can be submitted via this link: https://anu.au1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6zNpRjLFSklDxAO Kind regards, and stay safe and well.
