=== Call for Papers ====================================================

3rd International Workshop on Data- and Artifact-Centric BPM (DAB'14) September 8, Haifa, Israel // https://sites.google.com/site/dab32014/

submission deadline: June 8, 2014 (EXTENDED)

--- co-located with ---------------------------------------------------- 12th International Conference on Business Process Management (BPM'14) September 7-11, Haifa, Israel // http://bpm2014.haifa.ac.il/

=== about the workshop =================================================

Traditionally the management of business operations caters around two key issues: control flow and data. Each of the two has attracted over the past years people both in academia and industry contributing a plethora of methods, and tools that have been designed to assist with the management of these two issues. Yet, the natural and yet independent evolution in both areas has led to a reality in which in many cases the handling of one issue is treated as an afterthought with respect to the other.

Recently however, we see the emergence of paradigms that are aimed to blend control-flow and data, seeking for new approaches that may naturally and seamlessly unify the two in order to better streamline the overall complexity in BPM. Contemporary examples include Artifact-Centric BPM, Petri nets, and Case-Management. Therefore, the proposed workshop is aimed at bringing together researchers and practitioners whose common interest and experience is in the study and development of new foundations, models, methods, and technologies that are intended to uniformly and holistically align data and control flow.

We invite researchers from the BPM field as well as from related fields to submit papers that investigate the tight interplay between data and control flow. We aim at discussing the current state of ongoing research, as well as industry needs and sharing practical experiences.

=== topics =============================================================

We solicit papers that investigate the tight interplay between data and control flow in business processes, for example on the following topics:

- Integrated data and process modeling - Declarative and constraint-based process modeling - Artifact-centric (a.k.a. Business-Entity or BEL) modeling - Data-centric flexible process management/Case management - Complex event processing - Data-centric collaborative business processes - Multi-perspective process mining and mining data-enriched process models - Data-aware conformance - Data-aware compliance - Integrated data and processes management on the Cloud - Composition and discovery techniques of data-centric processes - Process mining/data mining for Data- & Artifact-centric processes - Analysis of data-centric/artifact-centric processes - Data-centric process monitoring, QoS, SLA - Integration and interoperability of data-/artifact- centric BPM - Foundations to the integration of data and process in systems analysis - Data- and Artifact- centric BPM methods and methodologies - Empirical studies of Data- & Artifact- centric BPM

=== submission and proceedings =========================================

Prospective authors are invited to submit papers in any of the areas of interest to the DAB workshop series. Only papers in English will be accepted. The length of the paper must not exceed 12 pages. All papers must be formatted in LNBIP format.

Papers should be submitted electronically via the EasyChair submission system. Link for submission: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dab2014

All submissions must be received no later than 8 June 2014, and must be in PDF format.

All workshop papers will be published by Springer as a post-workshop proceedings volume in the series Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP). The proceedings will be made available to all registered participants approximately four months after the workshops, while preliminary proceedings will be distributed during the workshop.
