Call for Papers
7th Mediterranean Conference on Information Systems
Track: Enterprise engineering
http://www.kmowl.org/mcis/
September 8-10, 2012, Guimarães, Portugal
Deadline for paper submissions: March 9th, 2012
Track description
Enterprise engineering (http://www.ee-team.eu/enterprise-engineering)
is the general term for an engineering based approach to architect,
transform or develop gradually enterprises. Enterprise engineering
is based on rationales of how an enterprise wants to use its
organizational socio-technical systems, such as business processes
and information systems.
This track is looking for contributions that describe appropriate
approaches and methodologies to align business and IT, support the
design and architecture of an enterprise, help in governance and
evolution of an enterprise, contribute in implementation of methods
and other instruments for enterprises. Moreover, contributions
providing guidance in assessing maturity and quality of an
enterprise will be appreciated.
Submitted research papers (full or research in progress) and posters
should present practical and theoretical insight of how an adequate
coordination through enterprise engineering may be conducted.
Research context may give an understanding of how enterprises need
to negotiate many challenges, such as changes in the economic
climate, mergers, acquisitions, innovation, novel technologies, et
cetera. Within this context, research contributions may involve the
development of new, appropriate theories, models, methods, and other
instruments for the analysis, design, implementation, evolution and
governance of enterprises by combining (relevant aspects of)
management and organization science and information systems science.
Therefore, the Enterprise engineering track may involve the
presentation of a wide range of issues that involve organization
science and information systems science. We encourage both,
researchers and practitioners to share their insight in following
topics:
Topics to be included
• Theories about enterprise engineering
• Models of enterprise engineering
• Frameworks, methods and other instruments of enterprise
engineering analysis
• Design and architecture of enterprise engineering
• Emergent techniques in enterprise engineering
• Evaluation of enterprise engineering aspects (e.g. Business /
IT alignment)
• Outsourcing of business and/or IT processes
• Implementation of methods and other instruments during
enterprise engineering
• Social and organisational aspects of enterprise engineering
• Technical aspects of enterprise engineering
• Evolution of enterprises through engineering
• Change management in enterprises
• Governance aspects of enterprise engineering
• Maturity, measurement and quality of enterprise engineering
• Open standards and technologies in enterprise engineering
Types of contributions
