2nd IFIP WG 8.1 Working Conference on The Practice of Enterprise Modeling (PoEM) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18-19 November, 2009, Stockholm, Sweden
The PoEM conferences contribute to establishing a dedicated forum where the use of EM in practice is addressed by bringing together researchers, users and practitioners. The main focus of PoEM is EM methods, approaches, and tools as well as how they are used in practice.
More specifically the goals of the conference are to contribute to a better understanding of the practice of EM, to contribute to improved EM practice as well as to share knowledge among researchers and PoEM 2009 will be the 2nd IFIP WG 8.1 working conference on the Practice of Enterprise Modeling. It follows the success of PoEM 2008. The conference attracted over 50 participants from all over the world, representing both industry and academia. This indicates that Enterprise Modeling (EM) has gained substantial of popularity both in the academic community and among practitioners. The interactive format of the conference sparked constructive interaction between research and practice.
The target for PoEM 2009 is to further strengthen this interaction by organizing collaborative working sessions within the conference program. Topics relevant for submissions include, but are not limited to, the following:
evaluation of EM methods from a practice perspective the process of modeling and guidelines for modeling management of EM projects use of EM in different contexts facilitation and group dynamics the competency of modelers and modeling teams model and process quality aspects reuse of enterprise models, modeling languages tools and workbenches enterprise model management success factors in EM teaching the practice EM and agile development enterprise knowledge architectures standardization issues and reference models method engineering in EM concordance between EM and information systems development
Event Format ------------ PoEM is a highly interactive event. The conference will be organized at a venue that stimulates discussion and open exchange of ideas and experiences. In addition to highly interactive paper sessions the event will include hands on experiences with EM, idea storming and industrial think tanks.
Paper types ----------- Experience papers present problems or challenges encountered in practice, relate success and failure stories, or report on industrial practices. The focus is on 'what' and on lessons learned, not on an indepth analysis of 'why'. The practice must be clearly described and its context must be given. Readers should be able to draw conclusions for their own practice.
Research papers describe original research contributions (theoretical, methodological or conceptual) to the area of EM. A research paper should clearly describe the situation or problem that is tackled, the relevant state of the art, the position or solution suggested and the potential or the evaluated benefits of the contribution.
Evaluation papers evaluate existing problem situations or validate proposed solutions with scientific means. Scientific reflection on problems and practices in industry also falls into this category. The topic of the evaluation presented in the paper as well as its causal or logical properties must be clearly stated. The research method must be sound and appropriate.
Idea papers can describe completely new research positions or approaches, in order to face to a generic situation that arises because of, for instance, new methods and tools or new types of emerging EM challenges They should describe precisely the situation and demonstrate the shortcomings of the current methods, tools, ways of reasoning, meta-models, etc.
Submission guidelines --------------------- The conference proceedings will be published in Springer Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP). Papers should be submitted in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). The results described must be unpublished and must not be under review elsewhere. Submissions must conform to Springer's LNBIP format and should not exceed 15 pages. Submissions not conforming to the LNBIP format or exceeding 15 pages will be rejected without review. Information about the Springer LNBIP format can be found at http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-7-487211-0.
Important dates --------------- 30 June 2009, paper submission deadline 20 August 2009 notification of acceptance 18-19 November 2009, Conference
Looking forward to seeing you in Stockholm!
