Subject: [Dbworld] Process Model Collections (02)
First International Workshop on "Process Model Collections"
(www.processcollections.org) (03)
In conjunction with the 9th International Conference on Business Process
Management
(http://bpm2011.isima.fr/) (04)
Clermont Ferrand, France, August 29, 2011 (05)
Important dates: (06)
Submission of Papers: May 29, 2011
Notification: June 30, 2011
Final Version Due: July 15, 2011
Workshop: August 29, 2011 (07)
Workshop Background and Goals: (08)
Nowadays, as organizations reach higher levels of Business Process Management
maturity, they tend to collect large collections of business process models. It
is quite common that such collections of industry-strength business process
models include thousands of activities and related business objects such as
data, applications, risks, etc. These models are increasingly published over an
Intranet to a large number of stakeholders with varying skills and
responsibilities. In that sense, it may not come as a surprise that many
organizations struggle to manage such high volumes of complex process models.
The problem is exacerbated by overlapping content across models, poor version
management, process models that are used simultaneously for different purposes,
the use of different modeling notations such as EPCs, BPMN, etc. (09)
In the light of the above, the aim of this workshop is to attract novel
research in the area of business process model collections. Conceptual,
technical and application-oriented contributions are sought within the scope of
this theme. Conceptual work relates to the design of approaches for the
management of process model collections, e.g. frameworks and structures to
govern the use of such collections. Technical work concerns solutions to
operationalize the management, and facilitate the maintenance, of content in
process model collections, e.g. via refactoring or abstraction techniques. It
also concerns software aspects related to process model collections such as
version management, efficient storage, querying and retrieval of process
models, and security. Finally, interest is also devoted to application papers
describing case studies with, or empirical evaluations of, industrial process
model collections and reference process models (e.g. ITIL, SCOR, eTOM). (010)
Topics: (011)
Topics of the workshop include but are not limited to:
- management of process model collections (e.g. frameworks, modeling
conventions and guidelines, governance, standardization)
- refactoring techniques and maintenance aspects (e.g. clone detection,
structuring, abstraction)
- features of process model repositories (e.g. version management,
storage, querying and retrieval, indexing, security)
- process similarity search
- process merging and consolidation
- variability management, process configuration and process families
- case studies and empirical evaluations of industrial process model
repositories and reference process model collections (e.g. ITIL, SCOR, eTOM). (012)
Format of the Workshop: (013)
The workshop will consist of presentations of the accepted papers and an
additional key-note speaker. Papers should be submitted in advance and will be
reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. All accepted
papers will be published as pre-proceedings and, potentially in revised form,
in the workshop proceedings published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes
on Business Information Processing. At least one author for each accepted paper
should register for the workshop and plan to present the paper. (014)
Paper Submission: (015)
Prospective authors are invited to submit papers for presentation in any of the
areas listed above. Only papers in English will be accepted, and the length of
a paper should not exceed 12 pages. Papers should be formatted in LNBIP format.
The title page must contain a short abstract, a classification of the topics
covered, preferably using the list of topics above, and an indication of the
submission category (work in progress/regular paper). Papers should be
submitted electronically via the PMC'11 submission system. Please upload a
self-contained PostScript file or PDF file. All submissions must be received by
no later than May 29, 2011. (016)
