Call for Papers

14th International Conference on Intelligent Environments (IE'18) 25-28 of June 2018, Rome - Italy http://www.intenv.org/ Special Session on Process-aware Intelligent Environments

In information systems, business process management has demonstrated to provide a number of advantages for enterprise management. Business processes provide a unified, integrated view of diverse units' activities, focusing on the overall goal.

The introduction of process models and related methodologies in different aspects of an IE can bring a number of advantages, related to an integrated view of the activities and goals for which the IE itself has been set: novel process-aware methodologies for the integration of information coming from sensors, more flexible management of environmental intelligence, process-based modular and flexible design, process-oriented context awareness.

This special session aims at providing a forum to discuss innovative ideas related to the introduction of process management principles in IE.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - business process management methodologies and models for IE - process-oriented design of IE - process mining techniques for IE - process-driven IE architectures - process-oriented context awareness - process-driven sensor data integration - business process performance methodologies and models for IE - QoS and Service Level Agreement in IE - models and methodologies for the integration of edge computing and cloud computing in process-aware IE - orchestration and composition of sensors, actuators and other external services (e.g. weather information) and alignment with process performance in IE - privacy and security issues in IE - inter-environment processes - applications and case studies in relevant domains (e.g., ambient assisted living, industry 4.0, building automation, smart cities,…)

Papers should be submitted electronically in pdf format via the IE'18 submission system:https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ie18

Papers submitted to the special session go through the same review process of the main conference. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings.
