------
SCOPE
------
Several developments, such as the success of cloud-computing show that  
not the ownership of IT resources but their management is the  
foundation for sustainable competitive advantage . According to Ross  
et al. , smart companies define how they (will) do business (using an  
operating model) and design the processes and infrastructure critical  
to their current and future operations (using an enterprise  
architecture).

Enterprise Engineering (EE) is the application of engineering  
principles to the design of Enterprise Architectures (EA). It allows  
deriving the EA from the enterprise goals and strategy and aligning it  
with the enterprise resources as shown in Figure 1, EA aims (i) to  
understand the interactions and all kind of articulations between  
business and information technology, (ii) to define how to align  
business components and IT components, as well as business strategy  
and IT strategy, and more particularly (iii) to develop and support a  
common understanding and sharing of those purposes of interest.  
Enterprise architecture is used to map the enterprise goal and  
strategy to the enterprise’s resources (actors, assets, IT  
supports) and to take into account the evolution of this mapping. It  
also provides documentation on the assignment of enterprise resources  
to the enterprise goals and strategy.

There are different paradigms for creating enterprise architecture.  
The most important is to encapsulate the functionalities of IT  
resources as services. By this means, it is possible to clearly  
describe the contributions of IT both in terms of functionality and  
quality and to define a service-oriented enterprise architecture  
(SoEA). SoEA easily integrates wide-spread technological approaches  
such as SOA or emerging ones as cloud computing because they also use  
service as structuring and governing paradigm. The enterprise goals  
and strategies are mapped to a SoEA.

SoEA differentiates four layers of services. Thus, its scope is much  
broader than the scope of SOA and also includes services not  
accessible through software such as business and infrastructure  
services. Services of different layers may be interconnected in  
service (value) nets to provide higher level services.

1. Business services are services, which directly support business  
processes. Business processes can also be developed dynamically  
(on-the-fly) using business services which are available in a  
repository for a given business domain. An example is call-centre  
services provided by an external service provider.
2. Software services exist as two types: (i) human-oriented  
applications, which are provided as Software as a Service, (ii)  
application services which are part of so-called SOA  that are a  
popular paradigm for creating enterprise software.
3. Platform Services provide support of the development of  
applications. They provide services for the execution of applications,  
middleware stacks, web servers etc.
4. Infrastructure services are more hardware-flavoured services, which  
are provided using computers. They may have a human addressee but  
contain many infrastructure services such as providing computing  
power, storage etc. They are an important topic in management and  
practice collections such as ITILV3  or standards such as ISO/IEC  
20000 have gained a high popularity.

GOALS
------
The goal of the workshop is to develop concepts and methods to assist  
the engineering and the management of service-oriented enterprise  
architectures and the software systems supporting them. Especially  
five themes of research shall be pursued:
1. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategies with the SoEA
2. Design of the SoEA
3. Mapping of SoEA to cloud-based enterprise resources
4. Management of SoEA
5. SoEA and influence of social and big data in Enterprise Engineering


---------------------
TOPICS OF DISCUSSION
---------------------
During the workshop we will discuss the following topics:

1. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategy with the SoEA
-    Which interdependencies exist between services and business strategy?
-    Which concepts and methods are necessary to align services with  
the business strategy?
-    Which new potentials to reengineer business processes are created  
by services?
-    How are non-functional requirements derived from enterprise goals  
and strategy?
-    How are services aligned with non-functional requirements?
-    How are services aligned with compliance requirements?

2. Design of SoEA
-    How are business, software, platform and infrastructure services defined?
-    How are business services assigned to business processes?
-    Which phases do the lifecycle of business, software, platform and  
infrastructure services contain?
-    How can the fulfilment of non-functional requirements be monitored?
-    Which benchmarks and key performance indicators should be applied  
to services?
-    Which approaches exist for the continual improvement of services?

3. Mapping of SoEA to cloud-based enterprise resources
-    Which resources are relevant for SoEA?
-    How are services mapped to cloud-based enterprise resources?
-    Which approaches exist to map services to resources?
-    Which information system architectures are adequate for services?
-    How can non-functional requirements be mapped to capacity  
planning of cloud-based resources?

4. Management of SoEA
-    Are the compliance and governance requirements enforced using SoEA?
-    How do meta-services differentiate for business, software,  
platform and infrastructure services?
-    How are appropriate meta-services designed?
-    How are service (value) nets -consisting of business, software,  
platform and infrastructure services- created?
-    Which meta-services are necessary for cloud-environments?

5.  SoEA and influence of social and big data in Enterprise Engineering
-    How does SoEA have to change in order to comply with the new  
possibilities of Big Data (volume, variety, velocity, veracity)?
-    What are the information flows of Big Data integrated into  
Enterprise Architecture?
-    How does social production influence SoEA?
-    How can the creation of weak ties be supported in SoEA?
-    How to support collective decision processes in SoEA?
-    How does SoEA interrelate with cloud computing?
-    How are Enterprise Architectures designed using cloud-services?
-    How differ cloud-services from other kinds of services?
-    How are Enterprise Architectures designed using cloud-environments?


-----------
SUBMISSION
-----------
Full papers (8-10 pages in the IEEE-CS format) describing mature  
results are sought. In addition, short papers (4 pages in the IEEE-CS  
format) may be submitted to facilitate discussion of recent research  
results and ongoing projects. Industry experience reports provide new  
insights gained in case studies or when applying service-oriented EA  
for enterprise engineering are also welcome. The paper selection will  
be based upon the relevance of a paper to the main topics, as well as  
upon its quality and potential to generate relevant discussion. All  
contributions will be peer reviewed based on the complete version,  
being full or short.

All papers published in the EDOC 2014 workshop proceedings must be in  
the IEEE Computer Society format  
(http://www.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting). It is strongly  
recommended that all papers are already in this format when they are  
first submitted to workshops. This gives precise picture of the paper  
length and avoids rework if the paper is accepted.

Please submit your paper to Easychair at  
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=soea4ee2014

At least one author of each accepted workshop paper will have to  
register for the whole EDOC 2014 conference and attend the workshop to  
present the paper. Analogously to previous years, there will be no  
workshop-only registration at EDOC 2014. If a paper is not presented  
in the workshop, it will be removed from the workshop proceedings  
published in the IEEE Xplore digital library.

The SoEA4EE workshop has been a full day workshop in conjunction with  
EDOC’09 in New Zealand, with EDOC’10 in Brasil,  
EDOC’11 in Finland, EDOC 2012 in China, and EDOC’2013 in  
Canada. The programs of the previous editions can be found from the  
portal www.soea4ee.org
