Call for Papers
------------------
First Workshop on Process Modeling Support Systems (ProMoS 2014) at Modellierung 2014
http://pmss.wi.uni-muenster.de/home
18 March 2014, University of Vienna


Background
--------------
A variety of different implementation strategies for process modeling support exists such as syntax-based auto-completion features, knowledge-based recommender systems or AI-based planning approaches. These mechanisms increasingly gain attention in the Business Process Management (BPM) and Conceptual Modeling community. In particular, they are intended to ease the model construction phase typically following a mixed-initiative approach where the human and the support system work in close cooperation. Due to the great variety of techniques and use cases of modeling support systems research is scattered amongst different sub-communities of the large BPM and Conceptual Modeling community and a common ground for discussion and empirical evaluation of these approaches is not yet established. Therefore, we aim to bring together researchers working on modeling support techniques, to discuss novel modeling support techniques as well as possibilities to prove their effectiveness. The workshop is planned as a full day event. Also, a demo session is planned where contributors will have the opportunity to present their modeling support tools.
Therefore, contributors are invited to submit original research papers addressing relevant aspects of modeling support techniques. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:

    - Process modeling support methods and strategies
    - Process modeling support features and algorithms
    - Querying, filtering and ranking of results
    - Visualization techniques and user interface
    - Architectures and implementation issues
    - Empirical studies that validate the efficiency, applicability, and utility

Peer-reviewed workshop papers will be published as part of the CEUR Workshop Proceedings (http://CEUR-WS.org). Two kinds of contributions are sought: short position papers (not to exceed 6 pages) describing particular challenges or experiences relevant to the scope of the workshop, and full research papers (not to exceed 12 pages) describing novel solutions to the scope of the workshop. All papers should be submitted through the ProMoS EasyChair Account (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=promos2014).
