BPD2013 - 9th International Workshop on Business Process Design http://www.bpd-workshops.com/
In conjunction with: 11th International Conference on Business Process Management (http://bpm2013.tsinghua.edu.cn) 26-30 August, 2013 Beijing, China
Paper submission deadline: 31st May 2013
Business Process Design is at the core of Business Process Management. As the most value-adding stage of the process lifecycle, it is dedicated to the development of improved and compliant business processes. Designing a process that improves corporate performance is a challenging task that requires multi-disciplinary expertise and a plethora of inputs (for example, organizational strategies, goals, constraints, human and technical capabilities, to name a few). However, unlike other well-defined and theory-grounded stages of the process lifecycle (e.g., process modeling), Business Process Design is scarcely understood, with little guidance detailing how or when to use a variety of improvement approaches. The lack of comprehensive research on Process Design limits the effectiveness of BPM professionals, who rely heavily on tacit knowledge and personal experiences in the absence of proven practices.
BPD2013 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners who have an interest in advancing the state of the art in Process Design. We seek contributions by authors who wish to share their innovative ideas and insightful observations. Two main categories of submissions will be considered: regular papers and industry papers.
The workshop focuses exclusively on aspects related to Process Design within the process lifecycle. This specialization excludes the well-researched process modeling and process execution. Within this specialized scope, topics of interest include but are not limited to:
* Process improvement methods, tools and techniques * Process improvement objectives * Process improvement patterns * Process improvement measures and evaluation * Process design in the cloud * Process reference models * Process innovation * Open innovation and crowdsourcing based approaches to process improvement * Process improvement approaches based on process mining * Visualizing process designs * Constraints in process design (e.g. legislative requirements, compliance) * Process design governance * Process design for emerging challenges (e.g. greening of processes) * Human aspects (involvement, participation, acceptance) in process design * Linking process design to organizational strategy and goals * Success factors in process design
Paper Submission: Only papers in English will be accepted, and the length of the paper must not exceed 12 pages. Papers should be submitted electronically via the EasyChair submission system at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bpd2013.
