CALL FOR PAPERS - EIS 2010

5th SIKS Conference on Enterprise Information Systems (EIS 2010)
Eindhoven, November 16, 2010
http://www.win.tue.nl/eis2010/

For the fifth time, the Dutch Research School SIKS organizes a Dutch/Belgian Conference on Enterprise Information Systems (EIS). The purpose of EIS is to bring together Dutch/Belgian researchers interested in the advances in and the business applications of information systems. This broad field includes topics such as:

* Management Information Systems,
* E-Business, IS Analysis and Design,
* Requirements Engineering,
* Business Innovation,
* Knowledge Management,
* Business Process Management,
* Product Software Development,
* Coordination and Communication,
* Collaborative Information Systems,
* Business/IT Alignment,
* Enterprise Engineering,
* Architectures for IKS,
* Business Process Intelligence,
* Business Process Compliance,
* Process Mining, and
* other topics related to Enterprise Information Systems.

EIS 2010 is organized by SIKS (School for Information and Knowledge Systems) in cooperation with LOIS (strategic initiative for Logistics, Operations and Information Systems), BENAIS (Benelux Chapter of the Association for Information Systems) and NIRICT (Netherlands Institute for Research on ICT). The conference offers a unique opportunity for research groups from both the Computer Science-side and the Management-side to report on research, meet and interact. We also welcome practitioners with an interest in research and innovation, as well as doctoral students in the early stages of their careers.
The event will take place in Eindhoven, at the campus of Eindhoven University of Technology. Participation in this event is free of charge and includes lunch, coffee, tea and a social drink. Therefore, registration is compulsory. To register, please visit the website http://www.win.tue.nl/eis2010/.

TYPES OF CONTRIBUTIONS

For EIS 2010, two types of contributions are welcomed, as well as demo presentations.

Type Alpha: New work
Papers presenting new, original work are warmly invited. Submitted papers should not exceed a length of 10 pages. These papers will be reviewed on overall quality and relevance to the conference topics. All accepted papers will be published in full in the proceedings. Submitting a paper of type Alpha is a good opportunity to gather feedback on research in an early stage or on doctoral work.

Type Beta: EIS Highlights
High-quality papers on EIS topics that have been accepted after September 2009 for refereed conferences or journals are explicitly called for. The original contribution can be resubmitted and will be accepted as a compressed contribution for EIS 2010. Authors are invited to submit the officially accepted/published version (without page restriction) together with a one or two-page abstract.
Accepted papers of type Beta will be granted a full slot at the EIS conference, but only the extended abstract of the paper will be published in the proceedings.

Tool Demos
During the EIS conference, there will be time and space for presenting demos of tools to small groups of colleagues. In order to obtain an overview of the available demos, we ask you to submit a two page overview of the tool/demo that you would like to present.  Besides an unrestricted description, the short paper should include at least the following:
1) the popularity of the tool (number of downloads per year, number of research groups using the tool, ...),
2) the license,
3) the implementation  size of the demonstrated part of the tool (in lines of code), organized per programming/configuration language, with an optional estimation of the size of reused components.
Finally, the short paper should contain references to the following artifacts:
1) [mandatory] a ten minute screen-cast (including voice) of the planned demonstration (you may create two five-minute screen-casts on http://screenr.com/, similar to http://screenr.com/HWm and http://screenr.com/WWm),
2) [recommended] a SHARE demo in the EIS 2010 group (see http://bit.ly/bvLbeI for example SHARE demos and sign up at http://bit.ly/cvVhoC  using your academic e-mail address).
3) [optional] a download location.
Please post any questions you may have on ScreenR and SHARE at http://bit.ly/dDkFZn.

SUBMISSION DETAILS

Paper submissions must be formatted in the Proceedings style of the Springer Publications format for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). For complete details, see Springer's Author Instructions (http://bit.ly/dARuoR). Authors keep the copyright of their submissions. The EIS Proceedings will be digital, and will carry an ISSN series number, just like journals, magazines and series of technical reports.
All submissions should take place through the Easychair system that is set up for the EIS 2010 conference at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eis2010. Type Alpha papers and Tool Demos should be prepared in PDF; for Beta type of papers, please send in a single zip file that contains both the abstract and the original contribution in PDF.
