CALL FOR PAPERS
Workshop on Business Process Management and Routine Dynamics at
the 19th
International Conference on Business Process Management
==============================
TESTIMONIALS
“Many processes in organizations are routinized but nevertheless,
change.
This workshop has the potential to make a big step ahead in
understanding
how. An exciting opportunity not to be missed!”
(Markus Becker, University of Southern Denmark)
“I would challenge you to a battle of wits- so come prepared to
challenge
the process how processes change. If you want to be part of the
process to
understand process change you need to attend the workshop!”
(Kalle Lyytinen, Case Western University, United States)
“Routine dynamics and BPM look at many of the same phenomena from
different
points of view, so there are enormous opportunities for
collaboration and
learning. Don’t miss this workshop!”
(Brian Pentland, Michigan State University, United States)

WORKSOP DESCRIPTION
Unique contributions of this workshop:
· This workshop reaches out to scholars from the organization
sciences
and information systems research to stronger engage with the
Business
Process Management Conference.
· Co-organizer Waldemar Kremser is a key researcher from the
organization sciences and a founder of the
<https://www.researchgate.net/project/RoutinesResearchCommunity>
Routines
Research Community.
· There is a vibrant discourse on flexible routines in information
systems research, as exemplified by seminal works such as Leonardi
(MISQ
2011) being cited more than 1,000 times.
· This workshop plays a key role in building bridges between these
research communities, introducing new research communities to the
Business
Process Management Conference.
Business Process Management and Routine Dynamics are both
interested in how
work in organizations is carried out. However, both fields depart
from
different assumptions, utilize different methods, and have
different
research foci. Consequently, both disciplines have so far
co-existed with
only limited mutual exchange, thereby missing the opportunities
arising from
synergies and cross-fertilization.
The aim of this workshop is to bring both communities closer
together and
provide a stage for mutual exchange. To facilitate this, we invite
conceptual, empirical, and algorithm engineering papers addressing
the
dynamics of business processes and organizational routines.
Different terms
have been used to discuss these dynamics in both fields, including
process
evolution, process change, routine dynamics, exogenous and
endogenous
change, process drift, etc. We encourage the full spectrum of
research
methods that the social sciences and computer science offer.
The workshop is planned as a half-day event comprised of the
presentations
of accepted papers followed by a discussion session to outline
directions
for future research as well as to promote interdisciplinary
collaboration.
Submissions can address, but are not limited to, the following
topics:
· Papers that investigate how business processes or aspects
thereof
change over time
· Methodological aspects to study change in business processes
· Conceptual contributions of how change in business processes can
be
understood
· Papers that study process change initiatives and their effect in
organizations
· Unintentional change in business processes
· Process mining algorithms to investigate process dynamics
Prospective authors can submit full papers (12 pages) or short
papers (6
pages) complying with the LNBIP format (

Papers
have to present original research contributions not concurrently
submitted
elsewhere. The title page must contain a short abstract, keywords,
and an
indication of the submission category (regular research
paper/position
paper/tool report or demo paper). Accepted papers will be
published by
Springer as a post-proceeding volume in Springer’s Lecture Notes
in Business
Information Processing (LNBIP) series.
The workshop will be held in conjunction with the 19th
International
Conference on Business Process Management hosted by the
<http://www.dis.uniroma1.it/en> Dipartimento di Ingegneria
Informatica,
Automatica e Gestionale Antonio Ruberti at
<http://en.uniroma1.it/>
Sapienza Università di Roma, Rome, Italy, September 6-10, 2021.
The conference chairs are monitoring how the situation around
Covid-19 will
develop and will decide accordingly whether the conference will
take place
physically, virtually, or as a combination of both.
