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:
www.soea4ee.org
Expected results
All papers will be published in the workshop wiki
(
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
