EMISA 2018 - Call For Contributions

Dear all,

please contribute for EMISA 2018 which takes place in Rostock on May 24 and 25. For details see here: http://www.emisa2018.informatik.uni-rostock.de/ 

Objectives

The strategic importance of enterprise modelling has been recognized by an increasing number of companies and public agencies. Enterprise modelling delivers the ‘blueprints’ for co-designing and aligning business and enterprise information systems such that they complement each other in an optimal way. As example consider the support of business processes by process-aware information systems. Achieving such interplay requires a multi-perspective approach taking organizational, economic, and technical aspects into account. In a world of cloud, social and big data, additional challenges for enterprise modelling and the design of information systems architectures are introduced, e.g., in respect to the design of data-driven processes or processes enabling cross-enterprise collaboration. To deal with these challenges, a close cooperation of researchers from different disciplines such as information systems, business informatics, and computer science will be required.

Subject and Topics

EMISA 2018 is the eighth international workshop in a series that provides a key forum for researchers and practitioners in the fields of enterprise modelling and the design of information system (IS) architectures. The workshop series emphasizes a holistic view on these fields, fostering integrated approaches that address and relate business processes, business people and information technology. The workshop is open for a broad range of subjects. Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

• Enterprise modelling: languages, methods, tools
• Patterns for enterprise modelling
• Patterns for information systems architectures
• Model life cycle management
• Model evolution
• Model configuration and model variants
• Model quality: metrics, case studies, experiments
• Process modelling and process-aware information systems
• Collaborative enterprise modelling
• Model-driven architectures
• Model-driven IS development
• Component- and service-oriented software architectures
• Service engineering and evolution
• Service composition, orchestration and choreography
• Complex event processing and event-driven architectures
• Human aspects in enterprise modelling

Organization

The workshop is organized by the GI Special Interest Group on Design Methods for Information Systems (GI-SIG EMISA www.emisa.org), which provides a forum for researchers from various disciplines who develop and apply methods to support the analysis and design of information systems.
