 Call for Papers

Topics:

XML technologies and applications have attracted increasing attention in the business process management (BPM) community in recent years. Integration aspects are becoming more and more important in this context. On the one hand, there are several interchange formats available to facilitate the exchange of business process models between tools and applications of different focus. These formats are well suited to serve as input to model-driven approaches for engineering of process-aware applications. XML transformations of process models are required to support these approaches in practice. On the other hand, web service technology and semantic web applications have a huge potential for run-time integration of process-aware applications and entreprise applications. These two trends require a good understanding of BPM- and related XML-standards as well as their interrelations. The workshop is dedicated to these two trends of business process management and business process modelling. Papers on ongoing and completed research, state of the art surveys, and reports on practical application of XML technologies in business process management and modelling are welcome. The workshop aims to identify current research directions as well as industry trends.
Topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Transformation of BPM-models and -schemas,
  • Model-driven development of BPM applications,
  • Integration of BPM applications,
  • Application of Web Services and Semantic Web technologies for BPM,
  • Metamodels, XML schemas, and ontologies for BPM,
  • Definition and application of XML-based reference models for BPM,
  • Evaluation and comparison of BPM standards,
  • BPEL, WS-CDL, BPSS, PNML, EPML, XPDL, XMI, etc. and their application in BPM,
  • Inter-organizational document exchange (e.g. XML-EDI, xCBL, etc.).
