22nd Business Process Modeling, Development, and Support (BPMDS) Working Conference, in conjunction with CAiSE’2021 Sponsored by IFIP WG8.1 (International Federation for Information Processing Working Group 8.1)
The Business Process Modeling, Development and Support (BPMDS) working conference has been held for more than two decades, dealing with and promoting research on BPMDS, and has been a platform for a multitude of influential research papers. In keeping with its tradition, the working conference covers a broad range of theoretical and application-based research on BPMDS.
The topics addressed by the BPMDS series are focused on business processes and their IT support. One of the major aims is to discuss and to learn about concepts and techniques to enhance the ability to engineer software systems closer the business requirements.
This year’s topic theme “Business Process Improvement” originates from the opportunities unleashed by the advancements in the fields of machine-learning and artificial intelligence, which enable the transition from the traditional process improvement led by human-experts to new process improvement methods based on intelligent software and systems, with the goal of reducing the effort and time required to achieve process improvements.
The topic theme is mandatory for Idea Paper submissions. All other submissions are free to address any topic related to the fields of Business Process Modeling, Development and Support, which include but are not limited to:
Business Process Improvement - Methods / Conceptual frameworks for process improvement - Process improvement through AI and machine-learning - Case-studies focused on process improvement - Robotic process automation for process improvement - Enhancing creativity in business processes - Process improvement in the context of digital transformation
Methods - Theoretical foundations for analysis and modeling of business processes - Variability and adaptability of business process models - Methods for the process of process modeling and its optimizations - Social information systems and their applications - Process mining - Business Process Development - Business process change management and governance issues
Models and Notations - Standard and non-standard perspectives on business processes especially concerning data incorporation and analysis - Meta-model and notation extensions - New modeling languages and notations - Domain-specific modeling languages - Reference models - Business process modeling in cyber physical environments
Business Process Development - New paradigms and architectures for business process executions, such as object-aware, data-intensive - Location and context-dependence of business processes - Cross-organizational processes - Data-intensive business processes
Business Process Support - Theoretical foundations for simulating or executing business processes - Context-aware work allocation in business processes - Actor support vs. control support in business processes - Privacy preserving, social responsibility, ethical aspects - New platforms such as blockchains and smart contracts
Important Dates: Paper Abstract Submission - March 15th 2021 (anywhere on Earth) Submission deadline - March 19th 2021 (anywhere on Earth) Notification of acceptance - April 19th 2021 (anywhere on Earth) Camera-ready papers due - April 28th 2021 (anywhere on Earth) Conference dates - 28-29 June, 2021, Melbourne
Accepted submissions will be presented during the working conference, and all accepted papers will be published in a Springer LNBIP proceedings volume.
After the BPMDS’21 conference, selected papers can be published as extended versions in a special issue of the International Journal on Software and Systems Modeling (SoSyM, www.sosym.org).
