This workshop will be held in the Universite Saint-Louis in Brussels, Belgium. The importance of modeling the essence of enterprises on a level that abstracts from operational details is increasingly recognized. Two established enterprise modeling approaches are value modeling and business ontology. Business ontology provides abstract descriptions of enterprises in their business context, focusing on what is needed to create and transfer value. Value modeling is a business modeling approach that focuses on the value objects exchanged in business networks. Business ontology and value modeling research is conducted using instruments like REA (Resources, Events, Agents), the Business Model Canvas, the e3value tool set, VDML and the Enterprise Engineering framework. The goals of the VMBO workshop series are to bring together researchers with an interest in value modeling and business ontology in order to present and discuss the current state of enterprise or business modeling and to identify key areas for further research, including, specifically but not exclusively, innovative business model design, service design, systemic trust for value exchanges, ontologies for modelling economic concepts and institutions, and value-aware systems design. Important dates: * Paper submission: November 24, 2019 * Notification of acceptance: December 8, 2019 * VMBO 2020: January 16-17, 2020 Instructions for submissions: If you are interested in joining, please submit a paper in the following categories: * Full paper (maximum of eight pages): describes original research contributions, presents problems or challenges encountered in practice or reports on industrial cases and practices. * Short paper (maximum of four pages): describes your main ideas. We encourage you to focus on ideas in progress for which you would like to get feedback from other workshop participants. If wanted, the accepted papers can be published with CEUR online proceedings. We support the submission of VMBO papers afterwards to a special issue of a journal, e.g. Journal of Applied Ontology (JAO) or Journal of Emerging Technologies in Accounting (JETA), if possible. Note that submitted papers will be reviewed only marginally. The program committee will use the papers to put together a final program; the aim is to accommodate all relevant papers with sufficient quality. Submit your short paper preferably in PDF format and following the (Proceedings) style of Springer LNCS to https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=vmbo2020. Program Committee: * Wim Laurier (chair) * Geert Poels (chair) * Ben Roelens (chair) * Hans Weigand (chair) * Birger Andersson * Jaap Gordijn * Nicola Guarino * Giancarlo Guizzardi * Pavel Hruby * Christian Huemer * Joris Hulstijn * Paul Johannesson * Bill McCarthy * Erik Proper * Ivan Razo-Zapata * Walter Schwaiger * Yao-Hua Tan _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Special Issue: Industry experiences of Artificial Intelligence (AI): benefits and challenges in operations and supply chain management of the Production Planning & Control Date: Thu, 31 Oct 2019 16:05:22 +0000 From: FOSSO-WAMBA Samuel <s.fosso-wamba(a)tbs-education.fr> To: 'aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org' <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Call for papers Special Issue: Industry experiences of Artificial Intelligence (AI): benefits and challenges in operations and supply chain management Submission Deadline: November 30, 2019 Guest Editors Professor Samuel Fosso Wamba, Toulouse Business School, France Dr Maciel M. Queiroz, University of São Paulo, Brazil Professor Ashley Braganza, Brunel Business School, UK Dr Cameron Guthrie, Toulouse Business School, France Recent cutting-edge technologies such as big data analytics, internet of things (IoT), smart factories and artificial intelligence (AI) are transforming the way people acquire and consume goods, firms manufacture and deliver produce, and logistics networks and society interact (Bibby & Dehe, 2018; Gölzer & Fritzsche, 2017). Together, these new concepts and technologies are said to usher in a Fourth Industrial Revolution (Schwab, 2017), or Industry 4.0 (Fatorachian & Kazemi, 2018). Business models and logistics production systems need to adapt to the new dynamics of production and consumption. The ubiquity of smartphones and apps is drastically changing the customer experience and expectations, allowing individuals to participate in various stages of the production process. For example, the combination of digital manufacturing, mobile and augmented reality technologies allow customers to provide feedback in a co-creation process (Mourtzis, Gargallis, & Zogopoulos, 2019), while IoT, sensors and data analytics enable the continuous collection of usage data throughout the entire product lifecycle. These new modes of relationship are already impacting the work of operations and supply chain managers. One of the most promising technologies for contemporary operations and supply chain management (OSCM) is artificial intelligence. AI emerged in the 1960s as "the science of making machines do things that would require intelligence if done by men" (Minsky, 1968). Today, a new generation of AI is being used to work on a vast array of issues including product recommendations and customisation, dynamic pricing, real-time production tracking, prevention of order shipment delays and inventory shortages, customer feedback collection for product development and supplier monitoring to minimise procurement costs (Syam & Sharma, 2018). In addition, a subset of AI known as machine learning is developing methods, (e.g. regression analysis, specific algorithms) and associated technologies (e.g. sensors, APIs) that allow computer systems to "learn" using historical data and act without human intervention. AI can also potentially be combined with Industry 4.0 cutting-edge technologies, such as big data analytics, blockchain, internet of things and cyber-physical systems. The use of AI "in supply chain ecosystems [...] in combination with human behaviour will create a new degree of intelligence, innovation, and collaboration" in organizations (Bienhaus & Haddud, 2018). Today's operations and supply chain managers need to gain a better understanding about how AI can be applied to OSCM problems. The use of AI applications within an OSCM context presents considerable managerial and organizational challenges. For example, in the adoption stage managers need to identify the requisite capabilities and potential obstacles to successful AI implementation. The potential impact of AI on operations management, production planning and control, productivity and performance also need to be investigated. Managers need to understand how AI initiatives affect the interplay of business, logistics and production systems at individual, organisational and supply chain levels. For example, AI can support individual worker's activities by performing repetitive tasks: AI commanded robots can audit manufacturing processes; robots can minimize the idleness of production systems when integrated with customers and suppliers; and AI can be used for predictive maintenance when combined with IoT and machine learning. Behind each opportunity lies a challenge for managers to successfully capture the benefits from AI. Little is known for instance about the contribution of AI driven robots to production systems. From an operations management perspective, a major challenge is how to use AI to gain insights for demand forecasting and production planning. More research is required into: strategies of AI use within organizations for existing OSCM problems (e.g. production planning and control, demand forecasting, operations management optimisation, distribution management); the impact of AI on production processes throughout the value chain; the drivers, enablers and obstacles to AI adoption and use; the development of new business models; and into the implications of AI for operations management practice. This special issue aims to explore the role of AI in OSCM, and especially how AI creates value in a digital age when combined with other Industry 4.0 cutting-edge technologies. Our objective is to stimulate research and debate both around how managers are using or could use AI to improve OSCM practice and performance, and create competitive advantage, as well as the enablers and inhibitors to adoption, integration and use. This special issue invites scholars, managers and practitioners to use case studies or other empirical methods to report in-depth on AI applications in operations and supply chain management. This special issue calls for contributions to: * In-depth cases reporting on AI technology implementation challenges and benchmarks in operations and SCM; * Case studies reporting AI adoption in logistics and production systems. What are the facilitators and barriers? * The impact and benefits provided by AI technologies in operations and SCM; * Case studies reporting on the organisational capabilities (management, technological) required to support successful AI project implementation; * Productivity and performance improvements in production planning and control through AI; * How can managers use AI applications to capture benefits, efficiency, productivity and value using customer product feedback? * How can robots in manufacturing and logistics activities be employed to improve productivity and performance? What is the role of robots in a production system? * Novel conceptual models and ways of theorising about AI, operations and SCM; * Are extant theories sufficient to explain the adoption and spread of AI or what new theories are required for AI in OSCM? * The link between AI and the innovation improvement capacity of an organisation's logistics and production systems; * The contribution of AI to knowledge and learning in logistics and production systems; * Barriers and benefits related to the integration of AI technologies across the supply chain; * How is AI impacting the decision-making process in logistics and production systems? What are the consequences for the management learning and knowledge? * Frameworks to explain AI implementation in operations and SCM contexts; * Frameworks and case studies to explain the adoption and use of AI combined with other cutting-edge technologies in operations and SCM contexts; · The effects of AI on business models. How are business models changing with the adoption of AI and related technologies? What changes do new business models bring to operations management? · The critical success factors in AI diffusion stages in operations and SCM. Papers concerning these and other related critical issues in operations and supply chain challenges are encouraged. The special issue aims to sharpen the focus on, and raise the awareness of these critical issues, especially those facing developing economies as well as advanced industrial economies, and to promote research, both theoretical and empirical, on specific digitalisation related problems and innovative practices to address these problems.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] 2nd Call for Papers: Blockchain and distributed ledger technologies in IS @ ECIS'2020 Date: Thu, 31 Oct 2019 12:59:28 +0000 From: Rossi Matti <matti.rossi(a)aalto.fi> To: Isworld <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> CC: Zachariadis, Markos <Markos.Zachariadis(a)wbs.ac.uk> Blockchain and distributed ledger technologies in IS track CALL FOR PAPERS ECIS’2020 European Conference on Information Systems, June 15-17, 2020, Marrakech, Morocco https://ecis2020.ma/ecis-2020-tracks/ Call for Contributions Blockchain and distributed ledger technologies challenge prevailing myths concerning supremacy of centralised computing architectures and offer new opportunities for developing radically new transactional digital services for private and public sector. Not only does blockchain have the potential to offer new transparency, but also to reduce the time for settlement and finalization, which is important in the context of title transfers, securities trading and so on. At the same time, the new technology architecture has been criticised as being ‘unnecessary’ or ‘unfit’ to deal with real issues in finance and beyond, especially due to its weak governance arrangements in ‘permissionless’ platforms and issues around transparency and irreversibility of transactions which can be challenging in the context of payments.

Fwd: [AISWorld] BPM 2020 Call for Workshop Proposals
by Gustaf Neumann 31 Oct '19

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] BPM 2020 Call for Workshop Proposals Date: Thu, 31 Oct 2019 10:34:55 +0100 From: Cristina Cabanillas Macías <ccabanillasmacias(a)gmail.com> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org 18th International Business Process Management Conference (BPM 2020) Sevilla (Spain), September 13-18, 2020 https://congreso.us.es/bpm2020/ == CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS == BPM 2020 is the 18th conference in a series that provides the most prestigious forum for researchers and practitioners in the field of Business Process Management (BPM). The conference has a record of attracting innovative research of highest quality related to all aspects of business process management, including theories, frameworks, methods, techniques, architectures, and empirical findings. BPM 2020 will take place in Seville, Spain. BPM 2020 is soliciting proposals for one-day or half-day workshops to be held before the main conference. Workshops facilitate the exchange of ideas and experiences among active researchers and stimulate discussions on new and emerging perspectives in line with the conference topics. Workshops may focus on specific research topics or be devoted to applications or standardization issues. Workshop proposals covering broad topics and that expand the scope of topics and paradigms traditionally represented at the BPM conference series are encouraged. All workshop papers will be published by Springer as a post-workshop proceedings volume in the series Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP). These proceedings will be made available to all registered participants approximately four months after the workshops, while preliminary proceedings will be distributed during the workshop. Different criteria will be considered by the workshop chairs for deciding whether or not a proposal is accepted. The workshop proposers should have a strong affinity with the proposed workshop topic and be well connected with experts on that topic. The workshop itself should provide a forum for important, innovative and timely BPM subtopics. The fulfillment of these two criteria should lead to a trustworthy claim to attract more than 10 submissions by workshop proposers. Furthermore, we encourage the workshop proposers to integrate mechanisms in their workshop to stimulate discussion and interaction beyond what is possible in a plenary conference session. Beyond these aspects, the workshop chairs will ensure that the accepted workshops as a whole cover a broad spectrum of the BPM research discipline. To this end, there will be a negotiation phase in which we seek to consolidate and mark off promising workshop proposals that show overlap. The final decision on the acceptance format of a workshop will be made by the general workshop chairs considering the aforementioned criteria and the overall impression of the proposal. With the aim of increasing participation per workshop, both in terms of submissions and attendance, in this edition there will be a more restricted number of accepted workshops that will range between 6 and 7, at the discretion of the general workshop chairs. == SUBMISSIONS == Workshop proposals should include the following elements: * The title of the workshop and an acronym; * An outline of the workshop theme, goals, planned activities, and the intended audience; * An indication of whether the workshop is planned as a full day or a half day event; * The targeted (or past) number of submissions and acceptance rate(s); * The rationale that supports the claim to attract more than 10 submissions; * A brief biography of each workshop organizer; * The activities envisioned to stimulate submissions to the workshop; * The tentative PC and call for papers. Workshop proposals must be submitted as a PDF document to bpm2020-workshops(a)us.es by the deadline indicated below. Any inquiries and requests for additional information about the organization of workshops should be sent to this e-mail address as well. == KEY DATES == * Deadline for submitting workshop proposals: December 2, 2019 * Notification of proposal acceptance, rejection, or invitation to negotiation: December 19, 2019 * Workshop papers submission deadline (tentative): May 29, 2020 * Workshop papers notification deadline (tentative): June 29, 2020 * Workshop camera-ready papers deadline: July 13, 2020 * Workshops: September 14, 2020 == GENERAL WORKSHOP CHAIRS == Henrik Leopold (Kühne Logistics University, Germany) Adela del Río Ortega (University of Seville, Spain) Flavia M. Santoro (University of the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) == MORE INFORMATION == Contact bpm2020-workshops(a)us.es for more information. _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org
