================== *CALL FOR PAPERS* ==================* BMSD'20 - /10th International Symposium on Business Modeling and Software Design/*/ 6-8 July 2020/ | /Berlin, Germany/_ __http://www.is-bmsd.org_ http://www.is-bmsd.org/

Organized by: _Institute IICREST_ http://www.iicrest.org/ Co-Organized by: _University of Potsdam_ https://www.uni-potsdam.de/en/university-of-potsdam.html =====================================================

* BMSD* - the *International Symposium on Business Modeling and Software Design*, is a leading international discussion and knowledge dissemination forum that brings together researchers and practitioners interested in: (i) MODELING in general and in particular - conceptual modeling, goal modeling, value modeling, business/enterprise modeling, process modeling, situation modeling, data-analytics-driven modeling, predictions-based modeling, model-driven engineering; (ii) ENTERPRISE ENGINEERING and its relation to SOFTWARE SPECIFICATION; (iii) INFORMATION SYSTEMS architectures and design. Each year, a special theme is chosen, for making presentations and discussions more focused. The theme of BMSD 2020 is: TOWARDS KNOWLEDGE-DRIVEN ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEMS.

Adequate enterprise models are of huge importance  not only for understanding and (re-)engineering an organization but also for adequately automating (part of) its processes by means of software. Not grasping correctly and exhaustively an enterprise system would inevitably lead to consequent software failures. It is therefore claimed that SOFTWARE GENERATION should essentially have its roots in corresponding enterprise engineering models.

In 2020, BMSD will be held in *Berlin*, *Germany*, following previous events in *Portugal* (_Lisbon 2019_ http://www.is-bmsd.org/BMSD2019/), *Austria* (_Vienna 2018_ http://www.is-bmsd.org/BMSD2018/), *Spain* (_Barcelona 2017_ http://www.is-bmsd.org/BMSD2017/), *Greece* (_Rhodes 2016_ http://www.is-bmsd.org/BMSD2016/), *Italy* (_Milan 2015_ http://www.is-bmsd.org/BMSD2015/), *The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg* (_Luxembourg 2014_ http://www.is-bmsd.org/BMSD2014/), *The Netherlands* (_Noordwijkerhout 2013_ http://www.is-bmsd.org/BMSD2013/), *Switzerland* (_Geneva 2012_ http://www.is-bmsd.org/BMSD2012/), and *Bulgaria* (_Sofia 2011_ http://www.is-bmsd.org/BMSD2011/).
