CAiSE 2009 - Industrial Track - Call-for-Chapters PRET 2009 - Practice-driven Research on Enterprise Transformation
Modern day enterprises, be they businesses, organisations, or government departments, are in a constant state of flux. New technologies, new markets, globalisation, mergers, acquisitions, etcetera are among the "usual suspects" which require enterprises to transform themselves to deal with these challenges and new realities. Most information systems practitioners will find themselves working in a context of enterprise transformation. One could even go as far as to claim that a business oriented perspective on information systems is really about enterprise transformation, where enterprise transformation involves the use of methods and techniques from enterprise engineering, enterprise modelling, enterprise architecture, and information systems engineering. As a field of study, enterprise transformation requires a close interaction between practice and academia. What works and does not work requires validation in real- life situations. Conversely, it is in industrial practice where challenges can be found that may fuel and inspire researchers.
The industrial track at the 2009 CAiSE conference focuses on enterprise transformation. The track will run in parallel to the main conference and will be filled with key-note speakers, paper sessions, and poster sessions, which cater to both an industrial and academic audience. To further stimulate the exchange between academia and industry, the industrial track will also be combined with an industrial exhibition.

CALL-FOR-CHAPTERS Linked to the industrial track a book will be published in Springer's LNBIP series (http://www.springer.com/series/7911) as part of the Advances in Enterprise Engineering sub-series. This book will comprise of chapters (of about 20 pages) concerned with different aspects of enterprise transformation.
We invite authors to submit chapter (proposals) which clearly bridge the gap between industry and academia. For example, by providing practical insights, evaluations of theories in terms of experiences from real-life practice or identify practice-driven challenges for further research. Most importantly, the chapters should be appealing to both an industrial and an academic audience. The authors of al l accepted chapters are expected to present a poster at the event. In addition, the authors of about four chapters will be invited to give a 45 minute presentation on their chapter.
TOPICS Relevant topics include (but are not limited to): - Architecture governance - Business-IT alignment - Business process modelling - Business rules - Collaborative and/or participative modelling - Enterprise architecture - Enterprise architecture frameworks - Enterprise architecture management - Enterprise engineering - Enterprise modelling - Enterprise modelling languages - Enterprise ontologies - Enterprise splitting and allying - ERP implementation - Design authorities - Managing/governing enterprise evolution - Outsourcing of business processes and/or system development - Requirements management - Roles and skills in enterprise transformation - Service-oriented architecture (wrt the enterprises and/or its applications). - Simulation of enterprise designs and models - Stakeholder management - Technology impact assessment "Game changing technologies" - Transformation, program and pro ject management - The impact of open source software development on enterprise development.
