You are invited to submit a paper to the First Enterprise Systems
Conference (ES 2013). The conference will be hosted in Cape Town, South
Africa from 7-8 November 2013. IEEE is a technical sponsor of the
conference and accepted papers will be published in IEEE Explore.
Furthermore, best papers will be invited to rework and resubmit for
review for inclusion in the Enterprise Information Systems journal, on
the ISI list with an impact factor of 3.68.

ES 2013: The First International Conference on Enterprise Systems 7-8
November 2013

Venue: The Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC[1]) Cape
Town, South Africa

Enterprise systems (ES) is a significant field of research, which has
become increasingly popular over the past few years. ES integrates and
extends organizations from strategy through processes, information and
operations across the boundaries of business functions and corporate
walls.

ES incorporates Enterprise Architecture and Engineering, Enterprise
Information Systems and Enterprise Management Systems and includes
mechanisms to cope with organizations’ ever-increasing complexity by,
for instance, ensuring alignment between all business aspects and
resources using integrated and holistic models of an organization’s
fundamental structure, embodied in all its elements (people, processes,
applications, etc.), their relationships to each other and to the
environment, and the principles guiding its design and evolution.

The increasing interest by academia and industry motivated the
establishment of the First International Conference on Enterprise
Systems by two technical committees of the IEEE SMC, namely the TC on
Enterprise Information Systems (EIS)[2] and the TC on Enterprise
Architecture and Engineering (EAE)[3]. The purpose of the conference is
to create a platform and forum to present and publish high quality
research and foster international collaboration on all aspects of
Enterprise Systems.

Important Dates

Abstract Submission: 29 April 2013
Notification of Abstract Acceptance: 13 May 2013
Final Paper Submission: 27 May 2013
Notification of Final Paper Acceptance: 4 August 2013
Conference Dates: 7-8 November 2013

Researchers in Enterprise Systems are invited to submit their research
papers to one of the three conference streams, namely:
• Enterprise Architecture and Engineering
• Enterprise Information Systems
• Enterprise Management Systems

Papers will be at least double peer reviewed before acceptance by the
program committee. The IEEE is our technical sponsor and accepted full
papers adhering to all specified requirements and copyright restrictions
will be included in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library pending approval by
IEEE. IEEE reserves the right to withhold publishing of papers and
proceedings that do not meet the IEEE quality standards.

EIS Journal
