Call for BPM 2022 Workshop Proposals



BPM 2022 is the 20th conference in a series that provides the most
prestigious forum for researchers and practitioners in the field of
Business Process Management (BPM). The conference has a record of
attracting innovative
research of highest quality related to all aspects of BPM, including
theories, frameworks, methods, techniques, architectures, and empirical
findings. BPM 2022 will take place in Münster, Germany.



BPM 2022 is soliciting proposals for one-day or half-day workshops to be
held before the main conference. Workshops facilitate the exchange of ideas
and experiences among active researchers and trigger in-depth discussion of
technical, application and novel perspectives in line with the conference
topics. For the BPM 2022 workshops, highlighting themes regarding business
processes and services analysis and design would be of great interest and
provide refreshing views on the discipline.



If you aim to prepare a workshop proposal for BPM 2022, please consider
that a typical BPM workshop is expected to attract around 20 participants
and around 10 submissions. The workshop proposers should have a strong
affinity with the proposed workshop topic and be well connected with experts
on that topic. The workshop itself should provide a forum for important,
innovative and timely BPM subtopics. In this regard, workshop proposals
covering broad topics that expand the scope of topics and paradigms
traditionally represented at the BPM conference series are encouraged.
Furthermore, priority will be given to proposals that also promise a creative
format likely to generate lively interactions and foster new ideas.
Examples include panels connecting practitioners and researchers or
research-in-progress papers for young researchers. Therefore, we encourage the
workshop proposers to integrate mechanisms in their workshop to stimulate
discussion and interaction beyond what is possible in a plenary conference
session.



Proposals that meet the aforementioned criteria will be evaluated by the
general workshop chairs, with the target to accept between 6 to 8 workshops
covering a broad spectrum of the BPM research discipline. In case of
very similar
workshop proposals, we might enter a negotiation phase where we might ask
the organizers to merge into a single workshop.



Workshop proposals should include the following elements:



●       The title of the workshop and an acronym.

●       An outline of the workshop theme, goals, planned activities, and the
intended audience.

●       An indication of whether the workshop is planned as a full day or a
half day event.

●       The targeted (or past) number of submissions and acceptance rate(s).

●       The rationale that supports the claim to attract more than 10
submissions.

●       A brief biography of each workshop organizer.

●       The activities envisioned to stimulate submissions to the workshop.

●       The tentative PC and call for papers.



Proposals must be submitted as a PDF file to
bpm-workshops at ercis.uni-muenster.de. <bpm-workshops at ercis.uni-muenster.de>
Any inquiries and requests for further information about the organization of
workshops should be sent to this email address, too.
