WorldCIST 2019
Workshop “Emerging Trends and Challenges in Business Process
Management (ETCBPM)”
The WorldCist'19 - 7th World Conference on Information Systems and
Technologies, to
be held at La Toja Island, Galicia, Spain, 16 - 19 April 2019, is
a global forum for
researchers and practitioners to present and discuss the most
recent innovations,
trends, results, experiences and concerns in the several
perspectives of Information
Systems and Technologies.
Workshop Scope
Business Process Management (BPM), as a field of both research and
practice, has
been maturing and increasing its span. However, more than
improvement, we need to
foster true innovation in business processes that should be
increasingly adaptive,
flexible and generative rather than structured, formalized and
stable. That will
require BPM to take advantage of recent breakthroughs in business
intelligence,
knowledge management, big data, cloud computing, social computing,
internet of
things or complex event processing to name a few. Information
Systems research can
significantly contribute to the future of BPM addressing both
technical and
organizational issues.
Topics
This workshop explicitly encourages papers that report on novel
applications of
concepts, theories and technologies that are of interest to IS
scholars reflecting
emerging trends and challenges in business process management
research and practice.
We seek contributions in topics including but not limited to:
· Adaptive Case Management
· BPM and BI
· BPM and Cloud Computing
· BPM and Crowdsourcing
· Collective Adaptive Processes
· Complex Event Processing
· Human-centric Processes and Knowledge-intensive Processes
· Mobile Processes
· Process Data Warehousing
· Process Mining
· Process Simulation
· Processes in the Internet of Things and Wearable Devices
· Social BPM
· User-centric Aspects of BPM
Submissions
Prospective authors are encouraged to submit papers for evaluation
by the Program
Committee. All papers must follow the formatting rules for
Proceedings in Advances
in Intelligent Systems and Computing Series (see Instructions for
Authors at
Springer Website or download a Word Template or Latex Package) and
be written in
English.
Two types of papers can be submitted:
· Full paper: Finished or consolidated R&D works (10-page
limit).
· Short paper: Ongoing works with relevant preliminary results,
open to
discussion (7-page limit).
All papers should be submitted using the link:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=worldcist-workshops2019
Review Process
All papers will be subjected to a “double-blind review” by at
least two/three
members of the Program Committee. Based on Program Committee
evaluation, a paper can
be rejected or accepted by the Workshop Chairs. The version of
papers for evaluation
by the Program Committee, saved in PDF format, must not include
identification,
e-mail and affiliation of the authors. This information must only
be available in
the camera-ready version of accepted papers, saved in Word or
Latex format and also
in PDF format. These files must be accompanied by the Consent to
Publish form filled
out, in a ZIP file, and uploaded at the conference management
system.
Publication
Full and short papers accepted and registered will be published in
Proceedings by
Springer, will be submitted for indexation by ISI, EI-Compendex,
SCOPUS and DBLP,
among others, and will be available in the SpringerLink Digital
Library. The authors
of the best selected papers will be invited to extend them for
publication in
renowned international journals indexed by ISI, SCOPUS and DBLP
(see WorldCIST
conference website for more details).
