[AISWorld] CFP Workshop on Security and Privacy-enhanced Business Process Management (SPBP 2017)

[Nicolas Mayer]

Workshop on Security and Privacy-enhanced Business Process Management (SPBP
2017)
In conjunction with the 15th International Conference on Business Process
Management (BPM 2017)

http://spbp17.cs.ut.ee/
Barcelona, Spain, September 11, 2017

---------------------------
CALL FOR PAPERS
---------------------------
Despite the growing demand for business processes that comply with security
and privacy policies, security and privacy incidents caused by erroneous
workflow specifications are regrettably common. This is, in part, because
business process management, security and privacy are seldom addressed
together, thereby hindering the development of trustworthy, privacy and
security-compliant business processes.


The central theme of the workshop is the interplay between business process
management (BPM), security, and privacy management. The goal is to
establish a venue to discuss business process privacy and integrity
management, for instance by using the new and emerging technologies
including blockchain and smart contracts, distributed ledgers, distributed
process mining, privacy-aware and privacy enhancing technologies, and more.
Other goals include to: get a snapshot of the current approaches and
existing tool-support; encourage approaches and techniques that combine
formal foundations with industrial applicability; and identify new research
directions and challenges. The workshop will also welcome traditional
submissions on security and security risk management, including compliance
checking, privacy and security policies, monitoring and measuring security
activities within business processes.

SPBP 2017 will be held on Sep. 11, 2017 in Barcelona, Spain.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- Accountability
- Authorization
- Availability
- Blockchain technology
- Choreography and Orchestration
