Larnaca, Cyprus May 21, 2014
http://bis.kie.ue.poznan.pl/16th_bis/wscfp.php?ws=vlba2014
===========================================================================
Deadline for submissions: March 21, 2014
===========================================================================
Very Large Business Applications (VLBA) act as enabler for intra- and interorganisational business processes and play a significant role in the development of new business models. With a special focus on related operations management this workshop aims at studying, grounding, and finally exploiting the potential of VLBA to solve integration and coordination problems in distributed business processes as a key enabler of flexible, boundaryless information systems. Key research questions are: - how to represent VLBA in service-based information systems by employing and adapting constructs, models, and methods of different information systems technology stacks, - how to coordinate software services by employing and adapting approaches for service discovery and composition, - how to operate large-scale, highly distributed enterprise systems aligned with the needs of an agile business environment, - how to negotiate and agree upon the delivery of software-based services (SLA), - how to control the delivery of software-based services in VLBA by measuring efficiency and effectiveness.
