Call for Papers for the AMCIS 2011 Mini Track on Analysis and
Design for Service-Oriented Enterprises
(part of Systems Analysis and Design (SIG SAND) Track)
AMCIS - Americas Conference on Information Systems, Detroit,
Michigan, USA, August 4-7, 2011
Enabled by the recent advances in web services, business
process automation, and service-oriented architectures,
organizations around the world have embarked on the development
of the next-generation enterprise infrastructures, referred to
by some as "Service-Oriented
Enterprises". Essentially, service-oriented enterprises are
organizations that take advantage of service-oriented computing
to support agile enterprises. Gartner has defined enterprise
agility as "the ability of an organization to sense
environmental change
and respond efficiently and effectively to that change."
Currently, there are many open research issues on the analysis
and design for the service-oriented enterprises that need
attention from the MIS community. This minitrack provides a
forum for researchers
and practitioners who are interested in presenting their work in
this area. The suggested topics are found in, although not
limited to, the following list:
• Analysis and design of business services
• Best practices in analysis and design for service-oriented
enterprises
• Business modeling in service-oriented enterprises
• Centrality of information in service-oriented enterprises
• Componentization of businesses
• Enterprise services for business process automation
• Innovative paradigms and techniques in support of flexible
business processes
• Language issues in service-oriented computing
• Modeling of process services
• Modular service composition (or enterprise service
mash-ups).
• Service modeling and catalog management
• Service-oriented system analysis and design techniques
• Service reuse in application development
• Web service composition in support of collaboration
