*PoEM’15 Doctoral Consortium Call for Papers*

The PoEM’15 Doctoral Consortium will be the 1st Doctoral Consortium of a
series to come in the future in conjunction with the PoEM conference. It is
intended to bring together PhD students working on foundations and
techniques of Enterprise Modeling and its sub-disciplines, and provide them
with an opportunity to present and discuss their research to an audience of
peers and senior faculty in a supportive environment, as well as to
participate in a number of plenary sessions with Information Systems
academics.

*The goals of the Doctoral Consortium are:*

   -

   To provide fruitful feedback and advice to the selected PhD students on
   their research project and methodology
   -

   To provide the opportunity to meet experts from different backgrounds
   working on topics related to the Enterprise Modeling discipline and its
   sub-disciplines such as Business Process Modeling, Requirements
   Engineering, etc.
   -

   To interact with other PhD students and stimulate an exchange of ideas
   and suggestions among participants
   -

   To provide the opportunity to discuss concerns about research,
   supervision, the job market, and other career-related issues

To be eligible for the Doctoral Consortium, the candidate must be a current
doctoral student within a recognized university. Submissions are sought on
any topic of enterprise modelling, including, but not limited to:

   -

   Enterprise modelling and information systems

Consortium.



*Submission guidelines*

The paper needs to:

   -

   Identify a significant problem in the field of research and establish a
   gap based on the current status of the problem domain and existing
   solutions
   -

   Indicate a research goal related to the identified gap and clearly
   formulate the research question
   -

   Present preliminary ideas, the proposed approach and the results
   achieved so far
   -

   Describe the research methodology that is applied or planned
   -

   Outline the contributions of the applicant’s work to the problem domain
   and highlight their uniqueness



The paper should conform to Springer LNCS format (
