Knowledge Management in Software Engineering (KMISE) at SEKE 2014

Knowledge management (KM) has been recognized as an essential component of knowledge-intensive processes, such as software engineering. Current software development processes suffer all too often from inappropriate project costs and duration estimations, cancelation and failures. The developed software product is frequently found fragile and unreliable; not fully complying with the requirements; difficult to upgrade and more. KM can facilitate software engineering by different ways, e.g., increasing the reuse of development experience, processes and products and creating a communication layer between developers and end-users. Current KM systems enable to organize the accumulated experience for better storage and retrieval and open internal communication channels within the development teams and external communication channels between the organization and the end-users, throughout the development and integration processes.

The Knowledge Management in Software Engineering track will focus on research that examines real settings where KM is embedded in SE (or produced with the SE), evaluating its role and influence on the software development process and its outcomes.

Papers should clearly establish the research contribution and the relation to previous research.

**

*Suggested topics: *

·Tools and technologies for managing knowledge in SE

·Methodologies for embedding KM practices in SE

·Empirical evidence for implementing KM in SE: risks, costs and benefits, and lessons learned

·Incentive programs for enhancing KM adoption

·KM in worldwide-distributed development teams

·KM as derived product of system usage analysis (e.g. usage patterns, tacit organizational culture and processes)

·KM and SE decision making

·KM contribution to efficiency (e.g. reuse, cost reduction)

2nd CfP: 4th Enterprise Engineering Working Conference - Madeira Island - Portugal (EEWC 2014)

**Call for papers**

**4th Enterprise Engineering Working Conference**

May, 6-8, 2014, Funchal, Madeira Island http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?id=YU0CABoBAR1SDQ , Portugal

Proceedings published in Springer Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?id=YU0CBBoBAR1SDQ (LNBIP)

Experience the benefits of a Working Conference in the Portuguese paradise known as the Pearl of the Atlantic and Europe?s Leading Island Destination of 2013 http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?id=YU0CARoBAR1SDQ by World Travel Awards http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?id=YU0CDhoBAR1SDQ . Come and visit us on a venue with breath taking views http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?id=YU0CDxoBAR1SDQ , providing inspiration and conditions for significant scientific advancement. We reserve 60 minutes for each paper?s presentation and productive discussion, relating to the increasingly relevant discipline of enterprise engineering that has emerged from the disciplines of information systems engineering and management and organization sciences. If you come a couple of days earlier, you will be able to attend the Madeira Flower Festival http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?id=YU0BBhoBAR1SDQ parade ? one of the major tourist attractions of Madeira every year.

**Motivation**

Modern enterprises face a strong pressure to increase agility and competitiveness, to operate on the global market, and to engage in manifold alliances. However, the vast majority of strategic initiatives in enterprises fail, meaning that enterprises are unable to gain success from their strategy. The key reason for these failures is the lack of coherence and consistency among the various components of an enterprise. At the same time, the need to operate as a unified and integrated whole is becoming increasingly important. Currently, these challenges are dominantly addressed from a functional or managerial perspective, as advocated by the management and organization sciences, and as implemented in MBA programs. Such knowledge is indeed necessary for managing an enterprise, but it is inadequate for bringing about changes in a fully systematic and integrated way. To do that, one needs to take a constructional or engineering perspective.

In addition, both organizations and software applications are complex systems, prone to entropy. This means that in the course of time, the costs of bringing about similar changes increase in a way that is known as combinatorial explosion. Entropy can be reduced and managed effectively through modular design based on atomic elements.

Lastly, the individual persons in an enterprise, in cooperation, are ultimately responsible for the effective and efficient operation of the enterprise. They are also collectively responsible for the evolution of the enterprise, in order to meet new challenges. These responsibilities can only be borne if members have an appropriate knowledge and an effective awareness of the construction of the enterprise given by a sound engineering aproach.

**Focus and Goal**

The Enterprise Engineering Working Conference 2014 is the fourth working conference in the emerging field of Enterprise Engineering. The goal of the conference is to gather academics and practitioners in order to share innovative research issues and practical experiences, and to facilitate profound discussions about the challenges mentioned above. It is the mission of the discipline of Enterprise Engineering to develop new, appropriate theories, models, methods and other artifacts for the

analysis, design, implementation, and governance of enterprises by combining (relevant parts of) management and organization science, information systems science, and computer science. The ambition is to address traditional topics in said disciplines from the Enterprise Engineering Paradigm http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?id=YU0CBRoBAR1SDQ . The result of the efforts should be theoretically rigorous and practically relevant.

Topics of interest to this working conference include, but are not limited to:

Business Process ManagementBusiness Process Modeling and SimulationBusiness RulesBusiness Rules ManagementCollaborative, Participative, and Interactive ModelingComponent-Based System DevelopmentDomain OntologiesDomain Reference OntologiesEnterprise ArchitectureEnterprise GovernanceEnterprise Modeling and SimulationEnterprise OntologyInformation System ArchitecturesInformation System OntologiesInformation Systems DesignInformation Systems DevelopmentInteroperability Testing and VerificationModeling (cross-enterprise) Business ProcessesOntology-based Web ServicesParticipatory SystemsReference Models for (cross-enterprise) Business ProcessesService Oriented ArchitectureService Oriented Design

**Organization**

The 4th Enterprise Engineering Working Conference in 2014 follows the successful preceding conferences in 2013, 2012 and 2011 and the preceding series of workshops (CIAO!?10, CIAO!?09, CIAO!?08, MIOS-CIAO?06, MIOS-INTEROP?05, MIOS?04) held at the DESRIST, CAiSE and

OTM Federated conferences.

We are looking for articles on current or recently finished research projects as well as articles from practitioners. Based on our motivating experience of the previous workshops and working conferences, the Enterprise Engineering Working Conference 2014 is planned to be a real

working conference, providing ample time for profound discussions following short presentations.

**Publication**

The EEWC proceedings will be published in the Springer LNBIP series: ?Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?id=YU0CBBoBAR1SDQ ?.
