Call for Papers for the AMCIS 2010 Mini Track on Analysis and Design for Service-Oriented Enterprises

(part of Systems Analysis and Design (SIG SAND) Track)

AMCIS - Americas Conference on Information Systems, Lima, Peru, August 12-15, 2010

 

Enabled by the recent advances in web services, business process automation, and service-oriented architectures, organizations around the world have embarked on the development of the next-generation enterprise infrastructures, referred to by some as "Service-Oriented Enterprises". Essentially, service-oriented enterprises are organizations that take advantage of service-oriented computing to support agile enterprises. Gartner has defined enterprise agility as "the ability of an organization to sense environmental change and respond efficiently and effectively to that change." Currently, there are many open research issues on the analysis and design for the service-oriented enterprises that need attention from the MIS community. This minitrack provides a forum for researchers and practitioners who are interested in presenting their work in this area. The suggested topics are found in, although not limited to, the following list:

•             Analysis and design of business services

•             Best practices in analysis and design for service-oriented enterprises

•             Business modeling in service-oriented enterprises

•             Centrality of information in service-oriented enterprises

•             Componentization of businesses

•             Enterprise services for business process automation

•             Innovative paradigms and techniques in support of flexible business processes

•             Language issues in service-oriented computing

•             Modeling of process services

•             Modular service composition (or enterprise service mash-ups).

•             Service modeling and catalog management

•             Service-oriented system analysis and design techniques

•             Service reuse in application development

•             Web service composition in support of collaboration
