**The paper submission deadline has been extended to the 3rd of
February.**

You are cordially invited to submit your research work to the 3rd
Enterprise Engineering Working Conference (EEWC 2013). Please read and
forward to whoever may be interested the Call for Papers below which
is also attached in TXT format.

**3rd Enterprise Engineering Working Conference (EEWC 2013)**

May, 13-14, 2013, Luxembourg, Luxembourg

**Motivation**

Modern enterprises face a strong pressure to increase agility and
competitiveness, to operate on the global market, and to engage in
manifold alliances. However, the vast majority of strategic
initiatives in enterprises fail, meaning that enterprises are unable
to gain success from their strategy. The key reason for these failures
is the lack of coherence and consistency among the various components
of an enterprise. At the same time, the need to operate as a unified
and integrated whole is becoming increasingly important. Currently,
these challenges are dominantly addressed from a functional or
managerial perspective, as advocated by the management and
organization sciences, and as implemented in MBA programs. Such
knowledge is indeed necessary for managing an enterprise, but it is
inadequate for bringing about changes in a fully systematic and
integrated way. To do that, one needs to take a constructional or
engineering perspective.

In addition, both organizations and software applications are complex
systems, prone to entropy. This means that in the course of time, the
costs of bringing about similar changes increase in a way that is
known as combinatorial explosion. Entropy can be reduced and managed
effectively through modular design based on atomic elements.

Lastly, the individual persons in an enterprise, in cooperation, are
ultimately responsible for the effective and efficient operation of
the enterprise. They are also collectively responsible for the
evolution of the enterprise, in order to meet new challenges. These
responsibilities can only be borne if members have an appropriate
knowledge and an effective awareness of the construction of the
enterprise.

**Focus and Goal**

The Enterprise Engineering Working Conference 2013 is the third
working conference in the emerging field of Enterprise Engineering.
The goal of the conference is to gather academics and practitioners in
order to share innovative research issues and practical experiences,
and to facilitate profound discussions about the challenges mentioned
above. It is the mission of the discipline of Enterprise Engineering
to develop new, appropriate theories, models, methods and other
artifacts for the analysis, design, implementation, and governance of
enterprises by combining (relevant parts of) management and
organization science, information systems science, and computer
science. The ambition is to address traditional topics in said
disciplines from the Enterprise Engineering Paradigm
<http://www.ciaonetwork.org/publications/EEManifesto.pdf>
. The result of the efforts should be theoretically rigorous and
practically relevant.

Topics of interest to this working conference include, but are not
limited to:

* Business Process Management

* Business Process Modeling and Simulation

* Business Rules

* Business Rules Management

* Collaborative, Participative, and Interactive Modeling

* Component-Based System Development

* Domain Ontologies

* Domain Reference Ontologies

* Enterprise Architecture

* Enterprise Governance

* Enterprise Modeling and Simulation

* Enterprise Ontology

* Information System Architectures

* Information System Ontologies

* Information Systems Design

* Information Systems Development

* Interoperability Testing and Verification

* Modeling (cross-enterprise) Business Processes

* Ontology-based Web Services

* Participatory Systems

* Reference Models for (cross-enterprise) Business Processes

* Service Oriented Architecture

* Service Oriented Design

**Organization**

The Enterprise Engineering Working Conference 2013 follows the
successful 1st EEWC in 2011, 2nd EEC in 2012 and the preceding series
of workshops (CIAO!'10, CIAO!'09, CIAO!'08, MIOS-CIAO'06,
MIOS-INTEROP'05, MIOS'04) held at the DESRIST, CAiSE and OTM Federated
conferences.

We are looking for articles on current or recently finished research
projects as well as articles from practitioners. Based on our
motivating experience of the previous workshops and working
conference, the Enterprise Engineering Working Conference 2013 is
planned to be a real working conference, providing ample time for
profound discussions following short presentations.

**Publication**

The EEWC proceedings will be published in the Springer LNBIP series:
"Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing
<http://www.springer.com/series/7911>
".

**Submission**

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 LNBIP format and should not exceed 15
pages, including all text, figures, references and appendices.
Submissions not conforming to the LNBIP format or exceeding 15 pages
will be rejected without review. Information about the Springer LNBIP
format can be found at Springer LNBIP web page mentioned above. Three
to five keywords characterizing the paper should be indicated at the
end of the abstract.

<https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eewc2013>
 and:

1) sign-up or sign-in

2) submit your abstract

3) upload your paper.
