BPM 2014 - 12th International Conference on Business Process Management

12th International Conference on Business Process Management Haifa, Israel Sep 7-11, 2014
The international conference on business process management (BPM) is the leading forum for researchers, practitioners, developers and users in the field of BPM, to explore and exchange knowledge on BPM.
Given the increasing span of BPM, this year the conference is opening up to a number of new topics that add to existing areas of interest and relevance to BPM research and industry. Recognizing the interdisciplinary nature of BPM, the conference also encourages submissions that embrace other disciplines such as Information Systems and IT Management, Data and Knowledge Management, Web/Software Engineering, Service-Oriented Computing, Social Computing, Cloud Computing, and many more.
Besides regular research papers, authors may submit industry papers, clearly marked as such. An industry paper reports work from within a context of BPM practice, typically studying requirements imposed by current practice, identifying new problems, or reporting experience on the deployment of methods, solutions, tools or systems in practice. Industry submissions undergo the same review process as regular research papers and are requested to meet the same high quality standards for originality, clarity of the contribution, and relevance to the community. However the review of an industry paper puts more emphasis to the value of new insights into current practice and less emphasis to the technical depth and scientific methodology compared to regular research papers.
BPM 2014 will take place in Haifa, Israel’s beautiful seaport on the Mediterranean. Haifa is situated on the Carmel Mountain, overlooking the Haifa bay and the mountains of Galilee, and has panoramic views as well as beautiful sandy beaches. Haifa is also an industrial center, housing the R&D labs of international corporations. Israel’s rich history and cultural heritage attracts millions of tourists each year, with sacred places to three religions. Some of these sites, such as Nazareth and the Sea of Galilee, are in the vicinity of Haifa.
As in previous editions, BPM 2014 will feature a varied set of BPM-related workshops and co-located events.
