**Eleventh Enterprise Engineering Working Conference**
/November 11th - 12th and December 16th - 17th 2021 (online)/
Important new Dates (1st submission window):
October 4th: Abstract submission deadline
October 18th: Submission deadline for initial versions of papers

The 2021 Enterprise Engineering Working Conference (EEWC 2021)
will be the
11th working conference addressing the field of Enterprise
Engineering. It
will be a special conference, as the CIAO! network
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=X3neXoUZomikU9kEn4hnTN/7inlGKu3Iu9xRRGURSErXPwrq3kDcKZvJz/1VoEtJ>
, the EE-Network.eu
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=eP4idwVl5/2Vl6vNk1uGKN/7inlGKl3Iu9xRRGURSErXPwrq3kCMKZvJz/1VoEtJ>
, and the EE Institute
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=33kPQESiBmGja1Hxv4Hvnt/7inlGKl3Iu9xRRGURSErXPwrq3kD8KZvJz/1VoEtJ>
will join forces to become an integrated network, concerned with
the
development of theory-based and practice-proven methods,
techniques, and
tools for enterprise engineering.
The new network will provide a platform to further strengthen our
activities, such as:
academic events, and the EEWC
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=lq1zgWZXDSaJpw1xE0og9t/7inlGKl3Iu9xRRGURSErXPwrq3kD8KZvJz/1VoEtJ>
working conference in particular,
the development of an EE body of knowledge,
joint research projects,
outreach events such as EE Insights,
a doctoral consortium and joint PhD training and supervision,
courses and certification for practitioners.
The formal kick-off of the new network will take place during this
year's
EEWC.
Due to Covid-19 and related travel restrictions, it has been
decided that
EEWC 2021 will take place, as in 2020, in an on-line format.
Nevertheless, the goal remains to gather academics and
practitioners in
order to share innovative research issues and practical
experiences,
balancing rigour and relevance, as well as to facilitate profound
discussions on the discipline of enterprise engineering
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=vrIRDx9kHEiKoyDLE2cTYN/7inlGKh3Iu9xRRGURSErXPwrq3kC8KZvJz/1VoEtJ>
. Furthermore, as in earlier years, the proceedings of EEWC 2021
will be
published as post-conference proceedings in Springer's Lecture
Notes in
Business Information Processing
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=RnJcWvoPZ72qAFwSj445/N/7inlGKo3Iu9xRRGURSErXPwrq3kDcKZvJz/1VoEtJ>
(LNBIP). The use of post-conference proceedings enables the
authors to
update their submissions based on the feedback from reviewers, as
well as
the discussions during the conference, which truly underlines the/
working
conference/ character of EEWC.
In maintaining the online format, we will take this opportunity to
keep our
EEWC conference in a community-driven working event.
More specifically, the plan is to have each paper go through the
following
process:
Each submitted paper (via EasyChair) will be reviewed by three
reviewers.
The reviewers will be asked (1) if the current version of the
paper is good
enough to be presented at the discussion sessions.
The discussions on the online platform will happen during the
conference
days.
With sufficient time before conference paper
presentation/discussion
rounds, PC-chairs will, based on reviews, make a selection of
papers that
are to be presented. Some of these papers will already obtain
confirmation
of publication in Springer proceedings, some will be conditionally
accepted
and, after the conference, might be accepted.
The authors will then have the option to provide an updated
version of
their papers to be presented at the online conference. In
addition, they
will be requested to provide a 15 minute pre-recorded video with a
presentation as a fallback solution in case the online
presentation fails
due to bandwidth problems. These should be provided before the
actual
conference presentations will take place, according to the dates
below.
Close to the conference days, the community will be able to read
the
updated version of the paper watch the pre-recorded video and
initiate
discussions on an online forum.
During the actual conference days, video-meetings will be
organised in
which the papers (and presentations) will be discussed in more
detail.
After the conference, authors are required to submit an updated
version of
their paper taking into account the discussions and chairs'
feedback. The
latter will be re-assessed by the reviewers. Based on this, the
final
selection of papers to be included in the post-proceedings will be
made.
The above structure also allows us to be rather flexible in terms
of
submission deadlines as per the dates specified below.
**Proceedings**
The proceedings of the working conference will, as always, be
published in
Springer's Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=RnJcWvoPZ72qAFwSj445/N/7inlGKo3Iu9xRRGURSErXPwrq3kDcKZvJz/1VoEtJ>
(LNBIP).
As in the previous years, the EEWC working conference will use
post-conference proceedings. This enables the authors to update
their
submissions based on the feedback from reviewers, as well as the
discussions during the working conference. Additionally, it
provides us
with more flexibility regarding the submission and reviewing
process.

to:
Specific aspects of enterprises:
Business processes
