TAProViz’12
- 1st International Workshop on Theory and Applications
of Process Visualization, Tallinn, Estonia – 3 September
2012
Workshop
Goals
Visualizations
can make the structure and dependencies between elements
in processes accessible in order to support users who
need to analyze process models and their instances.
However,
effectively visualizing processes in a user-friendly way
is often a big challenge, especially for complex process
models which can consist of hundreds of process
components (e.g., process activities, data flows, and
resources) and thousands of running process instances in
different execution states.
Many
challenges remain to be addressed within the broad area
of process visualization such as: scalability,
human-computer interaction, cognitive aspects,
applicability of different approaches, collaboration,
process evolution, run-time requirements of process
instances and applications, etc.
Topics
of interest include (but are not limited to):
Visual
Metaphors in Processes
Visual
Design and Aesthetics for Processes
Visualization
of Dynamic Data in Processes
Change
Visualization for Processes
Interface
and Interaction Techniques for Process Visualization
Visualization
Techniques for Collaboration and Distributed Processes
Visualization
of Large-scale Processes
Cognition
and Perception in Process Visualization
Evaluation
and User Studies of Process Visualization
Visual

Format
of the Workshop
The
1/2 day workshop will comprise accepted papers and tool
presentations. Papers should be submitted in advance and
will be reviewed by at least three members of the
program committee. All accepted papers will appear in
the workshop proceedings published by Springer in the
Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP)
series. There will be a single LNBIP volume dedicated to
the proceedings of all BPM workshops. As this volume
will appear after the conference, there will be informal
proceedings during the workshop. At least one author for
each accepted paper should register for the workshop and
present the paper.

Paper
Submission
Prospective
authors are invited to submit papers for presentation in
any of the areas listed above.
Three
types of submissions are possible:
(1)
full papers (12 pages long) reporting mature research
results
(2)
position papers reporting research that may be in
preliminary stage that has not yet been evaluated
(3)
tool reports
Position
papers and tool reports should be no longer than 6
pages.
Only
papers in English will be accepted and must present
original research contributions not concurrently
submitted elsewhere. Papers should be submitted in the (http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-791344-0) format.
The title page must contain a short abstract, a
classification of the topics covered, preferably using the
list of topics above, and an indication of the submission
category (regular paper/position paper/tool report).
All
accepted workshop papers will be published by Springer
as a post-workshop proceedings volume in the series
Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing
(LNBIP). Hard copies of these proceedings will be
shipped to all registered participants approximately
four months after the workshops, while preliminary
proceedings will be distributed during the workshop.
Submitted
papers will be evaluated, in a double blind manner, on
the basis of significance, originality, technical
quality, and exposition. Papers should clearly establish
their research contribution and the relation to the
theory and application of process visualization.
Registration
Accepted
papers imply that at least one of the authors will
register for BPM2012 (http://bpm2012.ut.ee/cfp/) and
present the paper at the TAProViz workshop.
