SCOPE
------
Several developments, such as the success of cloud-computing
show that not the ownership of IT resources but their management
is the foundation for sustainable competitive advantage .
According to Ross et al. , smart companies define how they
(will) do business (using an operating model) and design the
processes and infrastructure critical to their current and
future operations (using an enterprise architecture).
Enterprise Engineering (EE) is the application of engineering
principles to the design of Enterprise Architectures. It allows
deriving the Enterprise Architecture from the enterprise goals
and strategy and aligning it with the enterprise resources.
Enterprise architecture aims (i) to understand the interactions
and all kind of articulations between business and information
technology, (ii) to define how to align business components and
IT components, as well as business strategy and IT strategy, and
more particularly (iii) to develop and support a common
understanding and sharing of those purposes of interest.
Enterprise architecture is used to map the enterprise goal and
strategy to the enterprise’s resources (actors, assets, IT
supports) and to take into account the evolution of this
mapping. It also provides documentation on the assignment of
enterprise resources to the enterprise goals and strategy.
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). SoEA easily
integrates wide-spread technological approaches such as SOA or
emerging ones as cloud computing because they also use service
as structuring and governing paradigm. The enterprise goals and
strategies are mapped to a SoEA.
SoEA differentiates four layers of services. Thus, its scope is
much broader than the scope of SOA and also includes services
not accessible through software such as business and
infrastructure services. Services of different layers may be
interconnected in service (value) nets to provide higher level
services.
1. Business services are services, which directly support
business processes. Business processes can also be developed
dynamically (on-the-fly) using business services which are
available in a repository for a given business domain. An
example is call-centre services provided by an external service
provider.
2. Software services exist as two types: (i) human-oriented
applications, which are provided as Software as a Service, (ii)
application services which are part of so-called SOA that are a
popular paradigm for creating enterprise software.
3. Platform Services provide support of the development of
applications. They provide services for the execution of
applications, middleware stacks, web servers etc.
4. Infrastructure services are more hardware-flavoured services,
which are provided using computers. They may have a human
addressee but contain many infrastructure services such as
providing computing power, storage etc. They are an important
topic in management and practice collections such as ITILV3 or
standards such as ISO/IEC 20000 have gained a high popularity.

GOALS
------
The goal of the workshop is to develop concepts and methods to
assist the engineering and the management of service-oriented
enterprise architectures and the software systems supporting
them. Especially four themes of research shall be pursued:
1. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategies with the
service-oriented enterprise architecture
2. Design of the service-oriented enterprise architecture
3. Mapping of service-oriented enterprise architecture to
enterprise resources
4. SoEA and Cloud-Computing; influence of cloud, social and big
data
---------------------
TOPICS OF DISCUSSION
---------------------
During the workshop we will discuss the following topics:
1. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategy with the SoEA
- Which interdependencies exist between services and business
strategy?
- Which concepts and methods are necessary to align services
with the business strategy?
- Which new potentials to reengineer business processes are
created by services?
- How are non-functional requirements derived from enterprise
goals and strategy?
- How are services aligned with non-functional requirements?
- How are services aligned with compliance requirements?
- Are the compliance and governance requirements enforced using
SoEA?
2. Design of SoEA
- How are business, software, platform and infrastructure
services defined?
- How are business services assigned to business processes?
- How do meta-services differentiate for business, software,
platform and infrastructure services?
- How are appropriate meta-services designed?
- Which phases do the lifecycle of business, software, platform
and infrastructure services contain?
- How can the fulfilment of non-functional requirements be
monitored?
- Which benchmarks and key performance indicators should be
applied to services?
- Which approaches exist for the continual improvement of
services?
3. Mapping of SoEA to enterprise resources
- Which resources are relevant for SoEA?
- How are services mapped to enterprise resources?
- Which approaches exist to map services to resources?
- Which information system architectures are adequate for
services?
- How can non-functional requirements be mapped to capacity
planning of resources?
4. SoEA and Cloud-Computing; influence of cloud, social and big
data
- How does SoEA interrelate with cloud computing?
- How are Enterprise Architectures designed using
cloud-services?
- How differ cloud-services from other kinds of services?
- How are Enterprise Architectures designed using
cloud-environments?
- Which meta-services are necessary for cloud-environments?
- How are service (value) nets -consisting of business,
software, platform and infrastructure services- created?
- How does social production influence SoEA?
- How can the creation of weak ties be supported in SoEA?
- How to support collective decision processes in SoEA?
- What are the information flows of Big Data integrated into
Enterprise Architecture?
- How does SoEA have to change in order to comply with the new
possibilities of Big Data (=volume, variety, velocity)?
-----------
SUBMISSION
-----------
Full papers describing mature results are sought. In addition,
short papers may be submitted to initiate discussion around
ideas or preliminary research results and ongoing projects. The
page limit for full papers is 10 pages (minimum 8);
short/position papers can be as long as 5 pages. 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. The
review process for the two types of papers will be different
because of their distinct purposes.
All papers published in the EDOC 2013 workshop proceedings
should be made in PDF format and comply with the [IEEE Computer
Society Conference Proceedings Format Guidelines] (http://www.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting).
It is strongly recommended that all papers are already in this
format when they are first submitted to workshops. This gives
precise picture of the paper length and avoids rework if the
paper is accepted. 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://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=soea4ee2013.
At least one author of each accepted workshop paper will have to
register for the whole EDOC 2013 conference and attend the
workshop to present the paper. Analogously to previous years,
there will be no workshop-only registration at EDOC 2013. 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, EDOC’10 in Brasil, EDOC’11 in
Finland and EDOC’12 in China.

The link for the proceedings of EDOC 2012 workshops is: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/mostRecentIssue.jsp?punumber=6403619
-----------------
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. A workshop report will be created
collaboratively using the workshop wiki.
