• Enhancing creativity in business processes
• How to foster quality, flexibility, compliance, and security
Development
• New paradigms and architectures for Business Process executions
• Location and context dependence of business processes.
• Cross-organizational processes
• Data-intensive business processes
Models and Notations
• Standard and non-standard perspectives on business processes
• Meta-model and notation extensions
• New modeling languages and notations
• Domain-specific modeling languages
• Reference models
Business Process Support
• Foundations for simulating or executing business processes
• Context-aware work allocation in business processes
• Actor support vs. control support in business processes
• New platforms such as blockchains and smart contracts
Transformative BPMDS
This year‘s topic theme “Transformative BPMDS” is investigating
the transformative effects of emerging influential approaches and
technologies in conjunction with Business Process Modeling, Design
and Support:
• Artificial Intelligence fosters the automation of business
processes.
• Decentralized architectures and trust mechanisms such as
blockchains enable the extension of business processes to quickly
integrate new process partners.
• Voice assistants (e. g. Alexa, Siri) and augmented reality
significantly increase the quality and the types of interactions
with users in business processes.
• Internet of Things integrates increasingly intelligent devices
into business processes.
• Social Information Systems support paradigms such as weak ties,
social production, and egalitarian decisions.
• Cloud-services and mobile technologies enable the
pervasivenessof business processes and independence from a
geographic location.
The topic theme is mandatory for Idea Paper submissions, all other
submissions are free to address any topic related to the fields of
Business Process Modeling, Development and Support.
Submissions
You are invited to submit a paper that concerns the topics
mentioned above and all other topics related to business process
modeling, development and support. Three categories of submissions
are welcome:
1) Completed research papers (technical papers or empirical
evaluation papers) should report results in an advanced stage,
including at least partial evaluation.
2) Experience reports present work completed or being completed in
the context of a real-life organization. The work should have some
practical goal, pure research purpose does not fall in the
category "Experience report".
3) Idea papers related to the focus theme “Transformative BPMDS”
should address completely new research positions or approaches,
demonstrating the shortcomings of current methods, tools,
meta-models, etc.
Full papers with up to 15 pages or short papers with up to 8 pages
can be submitted to these categories. Submissions should follow
the guidelines in
http://www.bpmds.org/guidelines and adhere to
the formatting instructions at
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html. Please submit your
paper in PDF format through the conference management system at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bpmds19. The work must be
unpublished and must not be under review elsewhere. Accepted
submissions will be presented during the working conference, and
full papers will be published in a Springer LNBIP proceedings
volume. Accepted short papers will be published in a CEUR online
proceedings volume. After the BPMDS’19 conference, selected papers
can be published as extended versions in a special issue of the
International Journal on Software and Systems Modeling (SoSyM,
www.sosym.org). Note that the topic theme “Transformative BPMDS”
is suggested to make this year’s edition of BPMDS a special forum
for this theme, however, it is mandatory for “idea paper”
submissions only.

About BPMDS
The continued interest in this topic on behalf of the IS community
is reflected by the success of the past BPMDS events, and their
promotion from a workshop to a working conference. The BPMDS
series has produced nineteen events from 1998 to 2018. From 2011,
BPMDS has become a two-day working conference attached to CAiSE
(Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering). The
basic principles of the BPMDS series are: 1) BPMDS serves as a
meeting place for researchers and practitioners in the areas of
business development and business applications (software)
development. 2) The aim of the event is mainly discussions, rather
than presentations. 3) Each event has a theme that is mandatory
for idea papers. 4) Each event's results are, usually, published
in a special issue of an international journal. The goals, format,
and history of BPMDS can be found on:
