Business Process Management (BPM) efforts resulted in a plethora of approaches, methods and tools to support the design, analysis, improvement, enactment and management of operational business processes. The BPM discipline combines knowledge from information technology and management sciences and applies this to operational business processes. The ultimate goal of BPM is to embed the “process thinking” mindset within organizations. Design science research play a key role in BPM. To cope with the complexity of processes and to exploit the rapidly expanding opportunities provided by data science techniques, there is a need for innovative BPM approaches leading to novel constructs, models, methods, processes, and systems.

Topics: 1 Adaptive and context-aware process execution and process change management 2 Process compliance and performance management 3 Process architectures and value chains 4 Business process intelligence and process mining 5 Process and decision modeling 6 Process maturity and innovation 7 BPM systems and other process-aware information systems 8 X-aware BPM (e.g. risk-aware, security-aware, cost-aware, green-aware)

The DESRIST 2017 Conference ---------------------------- 12th Design Science Research in Information Systems and Technologies (DESRIST) 2017 Conference http://desrist2017.kit.edu/

Location: Karlsruhe, Germany Date: May 31 - June 1, 2017

Theme: Designing the Digital Transformation

The rapid digital transformation of businesses and society creates new challenges and opportunities for Information Systems (IS) research with a strong focus on design. There has been a surge of interest in Design Science Research in IS in the last few years, and we conclude that this is now a mature field. The goal of the Design Science Research paradigm is to extend the boundaries of human and organizational capabilities by designing new and innovative constructs, models, methods, processes, and systems. Scholars having different backgrounds such as information systems, computer science, software engineering, energy informatics, and medical informatics are actively engaged in generating novel solutions to interesting design problems in IS.

With this year's theme, we hope to focus attention on Design Science Research on digital transformation of businesses and society. In addition to a Best Paper Award, the conference will provide an award to the best paper addressing the conference theme.

Call for Contributions ---------------------------- The 12th DESRIST conference will bring together researchers and practitioners engaged in all aspects of Design Science Research. We invite contributions that describe work in different areas of Design Science Research. DESRIST 2017 will feature seven selected themes, in order to stimulate high quality submissions in important areas of DSR:

1. DSR in Business Process Management 2. DSR in Human Computer Interaction 3. DSR in Data Science & Business Analytics 4. DSR in Service Science 5. Methodological Contributions 6. Domain-specific DSR applications 7. Emerging themes and new ideas
