------
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. It allows deriving the 
Enterprise Architecture from the enterprise goals and strategy and 
aligning it with the enterprise resources. Enterprise architecture 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 four 
themes of research shall be pursued:
1. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategies with the 
service-oriented enterprise architecture
2. Design of the service-oriented enterprise architecture
3. Mapping of service-oriented enterprise architecture to enterprise 
resources
4. SoEA and Cloud-Computing; influence of cloud, social and big data


---------------------
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?
- Are the compliance and governance requirements enforced using SoEA?

2. Design of SoEA
- How are business, software, platform and infrastructure services defined?
- How are business services assigned to business processes?
- How do meta-services differentiate for business, software, platform 
and infrastructure services?
- How are appropriate meta-services designed?
- 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 enterprise resources
- Which resources are relevant for SoEA?
- How are services mapped to 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 
resources?

4.  SoEA and Cloud-Computing; influence of cloud, social and big data
- 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?
- Which meta-services are necessary for cloud-environments?
- How are service (value) nets -consisting of business, software, 
platform and infrastructure services- created?
- 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?
- What are the information flows of Big Data integrated into Enterprise 
Architecture?

possibilities of Big Data (=volume, variety, velocity)?


-----------
SUBMISSION
-----------
Full papers describing mature results are sought. In addition, short 
papers may be submitted to initiate discussion around ideas or 
preliminary research results and ongoing projects. The page limit for 
full papers is 10 pages (minimum 8); short/position papers can be as 
long as 5 pages. 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. The review process 
for the two types of papers will be different because of their distinct 
purposes.

All papers published in the EDOC 2013 workshop proceedings should be 
made in PDF format and comply with the [IEEE Computer Society Conference 
Proceedings Format Guidelines] 
(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. The proceedings will 
be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press and be made accessible 
through IEEE Xplore and the IEEE Computer Society Digital Library.

Please submit your paper to Easychair at 
*https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=soea4ee2013*.

At least one author of each accepted workshop paper will have to 
register for the whole EDOC 2013 conference and attend the workshop to 
present the paper. Analogously to previous years, there will be no 
workshop-only registration at EDOC 2013. 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, EDOC'10 in Brasil, EDOC'11 in Finland and 
EDOC'12 in China.

-----------------
EXPECTED RESULTS
-----------------
All papers will be published in the workshop wiki (www.soea4ee.org) 
before the workshop, so that everybody can learn about the problems that 
are important for other participants. The workshop will consist of long 
and short paper presentations, brainstorming sessions and discussions. A 
workshop report will be created collaboratively using the workshop wiki.
