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 (EA). It
allows deriving the EA from the enterprise goals and strategy
and aligning it with the enterprise resources as shown in
Figure 1, EA 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 five themes of research shall be pursued:
1. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategies with the
SoEA
2. Design of the SoEA
3. Mapping of SoEA to cloud-based enterprise resources
4. Management of SoEA
5. SoEA and influence of social and big data in Enterprise
Engineering
---------------------
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?
2. Design of SoEA
- How are business, software, platform and infrastructure
services defined?
- How are business services assigned to business processes?
- 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 cloud-based enterprise resources
- Which resources are relevant for SoEA?
- How are services mapped to cloud-based 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 cloud-based resources?
4. Management of SoEA
- Are the compliance and governance requirements enforced
using SoEA?
- How do meta-services differentiate for business,
software, platform and infrastructure services?
- How are appropriate meta-services designed?
- How are service (value) nets -consisting of business,
software, platform and infrastructure services- created?
- Which meta-services are necessary for cloud-environments?
5. SoEA and influence of social and big data in Enterprise
Engineering
- How does SoEA have to change in order to comply with the
new possibilities of Big Data (volume, variety, velocity,
veracity)?
- What are the information flows of Big Data integrated
into Enterprise Architecture?
- 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?
- 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?

SUBMISSION
-----------
Full papers (8-10 pages in the IEEE-CS format) describing
mature results are sought. In addition, short papers (4 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.
All papers published in the EDOC 2014 workshop proceedings
must be in the IEEE Computer Society format (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.
Please submit your paper to Easychair at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=soea4ee2014
At least one author of each accepted workshop paper will have
to register for the whole EDOC 2014 conference and attend the
workshop to present the paper. Analogously to previous years,
there will be no workshop-only registration at EDOC 2014. 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, and EDOC’2013
in Canada. The programs of the previous editions can be found
