Call for Papers for the AMCIS 2012 Mini Track on Analysis
and Design for Service-Oriented Enterprises
(part of Systems Analysis and Design (SIG SAND) Track)
AMCIS - Americas Conference on Information Systems,
Seattle, Washington, USA, August 9-12, 2012
Enabled by the
recent advances in web services, business process
automation, and service-oriented architectures,
organizations around the world have embarked on the
development of the next-generation enterprise
infrastructures, referred to by some as "Service-Oriented
Enterprises". Essentially, service-oriented enterprises
are organizations that take advantage of service-oriented
computing to support agile enterprises. Gartner has
defined enterprise agility as "the
ability of an organization to sense environmental change
and respond efficiently and effectively to that change."
Currently, there are many open research issues on the
analysis and design for the service-oriented enterprises
that need attention from the MIS
community. This minitrack provides a forum for researchers
and practitioners who are interested in presenting their
work in this area. The suggested topics are found in,
although not limited to, the following list:
- Analysis and design of business services
- Best practices in analysis and design for
service-oriented enterprises
- Business modeling in service-oriented enterprises
- Centrality of information in service-oriented
enterprises
- Componentization of businesses
- Enterprise services for business process automation
- Innovative paradigms and techniques in support of
flexible business processes
- Language issues in service-oriented computing
- Modeling of process services
- Modular service composition (or enterprise service
mash-ups).
- Service modeling and catalog management
- Service-oriented system analysis and design techniques
- Service reuse in application development
- Web service composition in support of collaboration
