Conference Theme - Information Services

The special theme of the 24th edition of CAiSE is Information Services.
The notion of service plays a more and more extensive role in the
enterprise development. Indeed, most of the enterprise management and
manufacture is based on the exchange of services: services to the
customers and/or citizens, services to support the inter-organisational
collaboration as well as services to accomplish intra-organisational
activities. Many organizations and companies are sharing services with
others, interfacing services from others, or outsourcing their ICT
resources to various locations worldwide aided by the internet. For all
of them, the concept of service becomes a cornerstone of their processes
of collaboration, innovation and value creation.
In this context, the information systems (IS) engineering is moving
towards the adoption of service-driven architectures where intra- and
inter-organisational business activities are carried out with the help
of information services. Information services are considered as a new
means to deal with the complexity, modularity and interoperability of
the constantly growing IS. Design and development of information
services and information service-driven architectures become key to the
success of organisations and their business.
Therefore, the service-driven IS domain becomes a new complex domain,
which requires new interdisciplinary approaches and new
transdisciplinary ways of thinking.
CAiSE’12 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners in the
field of information systems engineering and invites papers that address
all these challenges. The topics of interests include, but are not
restricted to:

Methodologies and Approaches for IS Engineering:
- Enterprise architecture and enterprise modelling
- Service science
- Requirements engineering
- Business process modelling and management
- Model, component, and software reuse
- IS reengineering
- Adaptive IS engineering approaches
- Knowledge patterns and ontologies for IS engineering
- IS engineering approaches for adaptive and flexible information systems
- IS in networked & virtual organizations
- Method engineering
- Knowledge, information, and data quality
- Quality of models and of modelling languages

Innovative platforms, architectures and technologies for IS engineering:
- Service-oriented architecture
- Model-driven architecture
- Component based development
- Agent architecture
- Distributed, mobile, and open architecture
- Innovative database technology
- Semantic web
- IS and ubiquitous technologies
- Adaptive and context-aware IS

Engineering of specific kinds of IS:
- eGovernment
- Enterprise applications (ERP, CRM)
- Data warehousing and business intelligence
- Workflow systems
- Knowledge management systems
- Content management systems
- Sustainability-aware IS


Author Guidelines

We invite four types of original and scientific papers:

- Formal and/or technical papers describe original solutions
(theoretical, methodological or conceptual) in the field of IS
engineering. A technical paper should clearly describe the situation or
problem tackled, the relevant state of the art, the position or solution
suggested and the potential - or, even better, the evaluated - benefits
of the contribution.
- Empirical evaluation papers evaluate existing problem situations or
validate proposed solutions with scientific means, i.e. by empirical
studies, experiments, case studies, simulations, formal analyses,
mathematical proofs, etc. Scientific reflection on problems and
practices in industry also falls into this category. The topic of the
evaluation presented in the paper as well as its causal or logical
properties must be clearly stated. The research method must be sound and
appropriate.
- Experience papers present problems or challenges encountered in
practice, relate success and failure stories, or report on industrial
practice. The focus is on 'what' and on lessons learned, not on an
in-depth analysis of 'why'. The practice must be clearly described and
its context must be given. Readers should be able to draw conclusions
for their own practice.
- Exploratory Papers can describe completely new research positions or
approaches, in order to face to a generic situation arising because of
new ICT tools or new kinds of activities or new IS challenges. They must
describe precisely the situation and demonstrate how current methods,
tools, ways of reasoning, or meta-models are inadequate. They must
rigorously present their approach and demonstrate its pertinence and
correctness to addressing the identified situation.


Submission and Publication

Papers should be submitted in PDF format. The results described must be
unpublished and must not be under review elsewhere. Submissions must
conform to Springer's LNCS format and should not exceed 15 pages,
including all text, figures, references and appendices. Submissions not
conforming to the LNCS format, exceeding 15 pages, or being obviously
out of the scope of the conference, will be rejected without review.
Information about the Springer LNCS format can be found at
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html.Thre... to five keywords
characterising the paper should be indicated at the end of the abstract.
The type of paper (technical/empirical evaluation/experience/exploratory
paper) should be indicated in the submission.
Accepted papers will be presented at CAiSE'12 and published in the
conference proceedings, which are published in the Springer Lecture
Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).
