Abstract

Introduction
------------
The ER International Conference on Conceptual Modeling is a leading international forum for presenting and discussing current research and applications in which the major emphasis is on conceptual modeling. Topics of interest span the entire spectrum of conceptual modeling including research and practice in areas such as: theories of concepts and ontologies underlying conceptual modeling; methods and tools for developing and communicating conceptual models; and techniques for transforming conceptual models into effective implementations. Also of interest are topics related to the interaction of conceptual modeling techniques with business strategy models and the effects (economical, organizational, and so forth) of good conceptual modeling techniques on the development of information systems. We encourage submissions relating to all aspects of conceptual modeling and specifically encourage research on topics of emerging interest.

Target audiences and the scope
------------------------------
We solicit submission of original research, as well as experience and vision papers, from both researchers and practitioners, welcoming any topic where conceptual modeling is a major theme. We specifically encourage submissions on the application and role of conceptual modeling techniques in new and emerging areas such as large data repositories for business intelligence, cloud computing and NoSQL databases.

Specific examples of topics of interest include, but are not limited to, conceptual modeling as applied to:
    Foundations and Concept Formalization
    Big Data
    NoSQL Databases and Enterprise Business Models
    Semantic Web, Cloud Computing, and Web Information Systems
    Enterprise Architectures and Service-Oriented Architectures
    Quality and Metrics of Conceptual Models
    Empirical Studies of Conceptual Modeling
    Ontology Modeling and Deployment
    Business Process Modeling
    Semi-structured Data and XML
    Development and Management of Conceptual Models for Big Data
    Integration of Conceptual Models and Database Schemas
    Information Retrieval, Filtering, Classification, Summarization, and Visualization
    Methodologies and Tools for Conceptual Design
    Requirements Engineering
    Reuse, Patterns, and Object-Oriented Design
    Reverse Engineering and Roundtrip Engineering
    Schema Evolution and Management of Database Constraints
    Spatial, Temporal, and Multimedia Aspects in Conceptual Models
    Metadata and Applications
    Data warehousing, Data Mining, and Business Intelligence
    Applications to bioinformatics, cyber security, and privacy
    Data Semantics and Integrity Constraints
    Advanced and Cross-Disciplinary Applications of Conceptual Models

Important Dates
----------------
    Paper abstract submission: April 8th, 2013
    Full paper submission: April 16th, 2013
    Paper notification: June 17th, 2013
    Camera-ready paper submission: July 15th, 2013
    Author registration: July 21st, 2013

ER 2013 Awards and Special Issue
--------------------------------
Springer Verlag will sponsor two awards:

    Best Student Paper Award: to be given to the best paper whose first author is a student.
    Best Paper Award: to be given to the best paper.

Selected papers may be invited to submit their extended version of their papers to a DKE special issue

Submission Guidelines
----------------------
Since the proceedings will be published by Springer in the LNCS series, authors must submit manuscripts using the LNCS style. See http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html for style files and details. The page limit for submitted papers (as well as for final, camera-ready papers) is 14. Manuscripts not submitted in the LNCS style or exceeding the page limit will not be reviewed and automatically rejected.

A paper submitted to ER 2013 may not be under review for any other conference or journal during the time it is being considered for ER 2013. Submitted papers must demonstrate to be aware of the state-of-the art literature in conceptual modeling by properly citing relevant papers in the field.

Submission Instructions
------------------------
Submission to ER 2013 will be electronically managed via EasyChair. Authors are asked to submit an abstract first, and then to upload the full paper. The submission page of ER-2013 is http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=er2013. Submitted papers must demonstrate awareness of the state-of-the-art of the literature in conceptual modeling by properly citing relevant papers in the field.
