In conjunction with EDOC 2021
The 13th Workshop on Service-oriented Enterprise Architecture for
Enterprise Engineering
For engineering service-oriented enterprises in the era of cloud
computing could EA notations be a lingua franca?
SoEA4EE'2021
October 25, 2021, Gold Coast, Australia
http://www.soea4ee.org/
Enterprise Engineering (EE) is the application of engineering
principles to the design of Enterprise Architectures. It enables
deriving the Enterprise Architecture from the enterprise goals and
strategy and aligning it with the enterprise resources that also
may be in the cloud or on the edge. Enterprise architecture is
used to map the enterprise goal and strategy to the enterprise's
resources (actors, assets, IT supports) and to support the
evolution of this mapping. It also provides documentation on the
assignment of enterprise resources to the enterprise goals and
strategy, e.g. for establishing new business models such as
platforms. There are different paradigms for creating enterprise
architecture. The most important is to encapsulate the
functionalities of IT resources as services. By this means, it is
possible to clearly describe the contributions of IT both in terms
of functionality and quality and to define a service-oriented
enterprise architecture (SoEA). The goal of the workshop is to
develop concepts and methods to assist the engineering and the
management of service oriented enterprise architectures (SoEA) and
the software systems supporting them.
Topics for Discussion
During the workshop we will discuss the following topics:
1. Digital enterprises, Industry 4.0 and Platforms
- New trends in digitization for enterprise architecture and
enterprise engineering e.g. Industry 4.0, platforms - Impacts of
digitized products on enterprise architecture
- Enterprise architecture - contributions and challenges for
digital transformation, Industry 4.0 and platforms
2. SoEA and influence of Artificial Intelligence, social
information systems and big data in Enterprise Engineering -
Trends in SoEA to use the capabilities of Artificial Intelligence,
social information systems and big data (volume, variety,
velocity, veracity)
- Impacts of Artificial Intelligence, social information systems
and big data on the SoEA
3. SoEA with cloud- and edge-computing
- Fitting SoEA with cloud and edge computing
- Concepts and methods for mapping enterprise services to cloud-
and edge-based resources
- Concepts and methods for mapping non-functional requirements to
cloud- and edge-based resources
4. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategy with the SoEA
- Interdependencies between services and business goals
- Concepts and methods to align services with the business
strategy
- New potentials and trends created by services to reengineer
business processes
- Quality issues and non-functional requirements for SoEA
- Coherence of services with compliance requirements (among
others, GDPR, ISO/IEC 27001 and 27002, ISO 15408)
5. Design of SoEA
- Specifications of business, software, platform and
infrastructure services
- Matching business services with business processes
- Lifecycle of business, software, platform and infrastructure
services
- Data-driven monitoring of the fulfilment of non-functional
requirements (big data, IoT, ...)
- Benchmarks and key performance indicators for services
- Approaches the continual improvement of services
6. Governance of SoEA
- Impacts of SoEA on the compliance and governance requirements
- Meta-services for business, software, platform and
infrastructure services
- Building service (value) nets -consisting of business, software,
platform and infrastructure services
- Meta-services for cloud-environments
- Impacts of VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity)
on the governance of EA
Submission
Full papers (8-10 pages in the IEEE-CS format) describing mature
results are sought. In addition, short/position papers (4-6 pages
in the IEEE-CS format) may be submitted to facilitate discussion
of recent research results and ongoing projects. Industry
experience reports provide new insights gained in case studies or
when applying service-oriented EA for enterprise engineering are
also welcome. The paper selection will be based upon the relevance
of a paper to the main topics, as well as upon its quality and
potential to generate relevant discussion. All contributions will
be peer reviewed based on the complete version, being full or
short.
Please note that all submissions should be made in PDF format and
comply with the [IEEE Computer Society Conference Proceedings
Format Guidelines]
(
http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html).
The proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society
Press and be made accessible through IEEE Xplore and the IEEE
Computer Society Digital Library.
Please submit your paper to Easychair at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=soea4ee2021
At least one author of each accepted workshop paper will have to
register for the whole EDOC 2021 conference and attend the
workshop to present the paper. Covid19 pandemic and the related
Australian border restrictions place a number of constraints on
the physical attendance of international delegates at the EDOC
2021. Thus, the participation to SoEA4EE 2021 will be remote for
non-Australian delegates. The registration fee will be adapted to
the situation.
Analogously to previous years, there will be no workshop-only
registration at EDOC 2021. If a paper is not presented in the
workshop, it will be removed from the workshop proceedings
published in the IEEE Xplore digital library. The SoEA4EE workshop
has been a full day workshop in conjunction with EDOC'09 in New
Zealand, with EDOC'10 in Brasil, EDOC'11 in Finland, EDOC 2012 in
China, EDOC'2013 in Canada, EDOC'2014 in Germany, EDOC'2015 in
Australia, EDOC'2016 in Austria, EDOC'2017 in Canada, EDOC'2018 in
Stockholm, EDOC'2019 in Paris, and EDOC'2020 virtually in
Eindhoven. The programs of the previous editions can be reached
from the portal of the SoEA4EE series:

Expected results
All papers will be published in the workshop wiki
(
www.soea4ee.org<http://www.soea4ee.org>) before the
workshop, so that everybody can learn about the problems that are
important for other participants. The workshop will consist of
long and short paper presentations, brainstorming sessions and
discussions. Workshop papers will be published in a second volume
of the EDOC 2021 conference proceedings.
Important dates
Workshop paper submission: June 18th, 2021
Workshop paper notification: July 16th, 2021
Workshop camera-ready paper due: July 30th, 2021
