IEEE EDOC 2016 is the twentieth conference in a series that provides the 
key forum for researchers and practitioners in the field of enterprise 
computing. EDOC conferences address the full range of models, 
methodologies, and engineering technologies contributing to intra- and 
inter-enterprise application systems. Since 1997, EDOC has brought 
together leading computer scientists, IT decision makers, enterprise 
architects, solution designers, and practitioners to discuss enterprise 
computing challenges, models and solutions from the perspectives of 
academia, industry, and government. The EDOC conference series 
emphasizes a holistic view on enterprise applications engineering and 
management, fostering integrated approaches that address and relate 
business models, business processes, people and technology.

EDOC 2016 welcomes high quality scientific submissions as well as 
experience papers on enterprise computing from industry. The main theme 
of EDOC 2016 is ”Enabling innovative business models in the enterprise 
of the future” and seeks to explore innovative approaches synthesizing 
concepts of (1) data science, (2) enterprise computing and (3) social 
computing.

Expert panel discussions and keynotes will address current topics and 
issues in this domain.
