Call For Papers

Fifteenth IEEE International EDOC Conference (EDOC 2011)

"The Enterprise Computing Conference"

Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society (approval pending) and IEEE

Communications Society (approval pending)

29.8.-2.9. 2011, Helsinki, Finland

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

The IEEE EDOC Conference is the key annual event in enterprise

computing. EDOC conferences address the full range of engineering

technologies and methods contributing to intra- and inter-enterprise

distributed application systems. EDOC 2011 will be the fifteenth event

in the series of conferences. Since 1997, EDOC has brought together

leading computer science researchers, IT decision makers, enterprise

architects, solution designers and practitioners to discuss enterprise

computing challenges, models and solutions from the perspectives of

academia, industry and government.

Enterprise computing is based on a wide (and ever growing) range of

methods, models, tools and technologies. The resulting applications also

cover a broad spectrum of vertical domains and industry segments, from

electronic and mobile commerce to real-time business applications for

collaborating enterprises. In recent years, technologies related to

enterprise architecture and business processes management have become

some of the top areas of interest in enterprise computing. Today, the

creation, operation and evolution of enterprise computing systems create

challenges that range from goal and policy modeling through

functional and non-functional requirements to the deployment and maintenance of

solutions in and across customer businesses.

The IEEE EDOC Conference emphasizes a holistic view of enterprise

applications engineering and management, fostering integrated approaches

that can address and relate processes, people and technology. Openness

and distributed computing, based on services, components and objects are

important themes.

IEEE EDOC 2011 welcomes high quality scientific submissions as well as

papers on enterprise computing industry experiences. Expert panel

discussions and keynotes will address hot topics and issues in the

domain.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Two types of paper submissions will be accepted a) scientific research

papers, and b) industry experience reports or case studies.

Scientific research papers should describe original results that have

not been accepted or submitted for publication elsewhere. These papers

will be evaluated for scientific or technical contribution, originality,

appropriateness and significance.

Experience reports should describe new insights gained from case studies

or the application of enterprise computing technology in practice,

contribute important feedback about the state of practice and how

current research is applied, and pose challenges for researchers. These

papers will be evaluated based on their appropriateness, significance

and clarity.

All papers should be limited to 10 pages in length.

All submissions must comply with the IEEE Computer Society conference

proceedings format guidelines

(http://www2.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting). Submissions must

be in English.

Submissions should be made electronically in PDF format via the

electronic submission system of the EDOC Conference Management system

(hosted at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=edoc2011). All

papers will be refereed by at least 3 members of the international

program committee.

The conference proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer

Society Press and will be accessible through IEEE Xplore and the IEEE

Computer Society Digital Library. The IEEE reserves the right to exclude

a paper from distribution after the conference (e.g., removal from IEEE

Xplore) if the paper is not presented at the conference.

POST CONFERENCE PUBLICATION

The authors of a set of selected papers will be invited to prepare a

substantially revised and extended version of their papers for

publication in a special journal issue (details will be announced

later). In previous years, selected papers from EDOC have been published

in Springer's Information Systems Frontiers (ISF), Enterprise

Information Systems (EIS), and International Journal of Cooperative

Information Systems (IJCIS). A special issue with selected and extended

papers of EDOC 2010 will appear at the Enterprise Information Systems

journal (published by Taylor & Francis, with an impact factor of 2.809

in JCR 2009).

WORKSHOP PROPOSALS

Please email the workshop proposal either in PDF or TXT to Georg

Grossmann, georg.grossmann@unisa.edu.au

mailto:georg.grossmann@unisa.edu.au with the subject line "EDOC 2011

Workshop Proposal", before Monday, 6 December, 2010 including the

following information.

1. Title of the workshop

2. Proposed duration of the workshop (half day, one day, two days)

3. Name, affiliation, and e-mail addresses of the workshop chairs

4. Extended abstract (about 500-1000 words; approximately 1-2 pages)

of the workshop, explaining the importance of the workshop topics,

its fit within and complementarity with the EDOC 2011 conference, intended

audience, and other relevant issues that are not adequately covered in

the preliminary Call for Papers

5. Preliminary Call for Papers (not all Program Committee members have

to be confirmed at the workshop proposal submission time, although it

is certainly beneficial to have some preliminary acceptances)

6. Information about distribution channels (e.g., list-servs) that

will be used for advertising the workshop

7. History of the workshop (if it was held before) with some

statistics of the size of the workhop (ie., how many papers were
