BMSD 2019 - Ninth International Symposium on Business Modeling and Software Design

1-3 July 2019 Lisbon, Portugal

http://www.is-bmsd.org

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

CHAIR: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Boris Shishkov, IICREST / ULSIT / IMI-BAS, Bulgaria

KEYNOTE SPEAKER: Prof. Dr. Jose Tribolet, IST - University of Lisbon, Portugal (Title: FRAMING ENTERPRISE ENGINEERING WITHIN GENERAL SYSTEM'S THEORY - PERSPECTIVES OF A HUMAN CENTERED FUTURE)

THEME: Reflecting Human Authority and Responsibility in Enterprise Models and Software Specifications

======================================================

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, Model-Driven Engineering; (ii) Enterprise Engineering and its relation to Software Generation; (iii) Information Systems Architectures and Design; (iv) Data Analytics and its relevance to Enterprise (Information) Systems; (v) "Hot" topics relevant to Business Modeling and Software Design, such as Blockchain Technology and Internet-of-Things.

Adequate business models are of huge importance not only for understanding and (re-)engineering an organization but also for automating (part of) its processes by means of software systems. 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 2019, BMSD will be held in LISBON, PORTUGAL, following previous events in Austria (Vienna, 2018), Spain (Barcelona, 2017), Greece (Rhodes, 2016), Italy (Milan, 2015), the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (Luxembourg, 2014), The Netherlands (Noordwijkerhout, 2013), Switzerland (Geneva, 2012), and Bulgaria (Sofia, 2011).
