=================================================================

BPM 2011 is the ninth conference in a series that provides the most 
distinguished research forum for researchers and practitioners in all 
aspects of BPM including theory, frameworks, methods, techniques, 
architectures, systems, and empirical findings. With an acceptance rate 
in previous editions at around 13% the conference has a record of 
attracting innovative research of highest quality, from a mix of 
disciplines including Computer Science, Management Information Science, 
Services Computing, Services Science, and Technology Management.

This year’s conference will continue with the broad-based themes of 
previous editions, and strives to strengthen and expand in several key 
directions . The conference encourages emerging research on new 
conceptual models for BPM that attempt to unify core aspects of BPM, 
including process management, data management, business rules and 
requirements, and analytics. The conference also encourages the 
increasing interest in applying established and new techniques, such as 
model-driven architectures, Web services and Web architectures, SOA, and 
Cloud Computing, to the specific challenges of BPM. In this context, the 
conference is also looking for contributions on implementation 
techniques and details for process or Web service execution engines with 
focus on new application areas. Finally, the conference seeks to attract 
papers that highlight the pervasive need for BPM capabilities across 
application areas outside of business management, including healthcare 
delivery, digital government, disaster management, and management of 
scientific and other academic endeavors, and that highlight how new 
techniques can solve the distinctive challenges arising in those diverse 
areas. Awards will be given to the best papers in different categories.

BPM 2011 will be held in Clermont-Ferrand, France, and will be organized 
by the LIMOS Laboratory (http://www.isima.fr/limos/), CNRS, Université 
Blaise Pascal. The conference will take place at the campus des cezeaux 
which is located about minutes from the city center. Clermont-Ferrand is 
a medium-sized city located in the heart of Auvergne, one of the most 
beautiful regions of France: ancient volcanoes, lakes and gorges, 
historic sites and Romanesque architecture make its wealth. Information 
about the venue and local area are provided on the conference website:
