<p class="MsoNormal">Recent developments in metamodelling and model transformation<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">techniques have led to increasing adoption of model-driven engineering<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">practices. The increase in interest and significance of the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">model-driven approach has also accelerated its application in the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">development of large (distributed) IT systems to support<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">(collaborative) enterprises. Shifting attention from source code to<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">models allows enterprises to focus on their core concerns, such as<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">business processes, services and collaborations, without being forced<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">to simultaneously consider the underlying technologies. Different<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">models typically address different concerns, with transformations<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">between these models and ultimately to the source code. Although the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">model-driven approach offers theoretical benefits for the development,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">maintenance and evolution of enterprise computing systems and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">corresponding service-oriented solutions, a number of issues for the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">practical application of the approach still exist. In order to solve<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">these issues further advances in models (business goals, pragmatic<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">interoperability, semantic interoperability) and model-driven methods<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">(design concepts, languages, metamodels, profiles, specification<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">frameworks) are necessary.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This workshop aims at helping the convergence of research on<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">model-driven development and practical application of the model-driven<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">approach in the area of enterprise computing and service engineering.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The workshop addresses questions with respect to the requirements on,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">concepts for, properties of and experience with models and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">model-driven methods for service engineering in the area of enterprise<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">computing. A special focus is on the combined application of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">model-driven and semantic approaches in the different phases of the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">service lifecycle. Submissions related to model-driven approaches in<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Globalization and competitive pressure created the need for<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">collaborations among business partners who join their forces and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">combine their services in order to provide added-value products.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Despite the benefits of such cross-organizational collaborations, new<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">challenges arise; e.g., mainly the ability to cope with security,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">adaptation, compliance and privacy. The CeSCoP workshop focuses on the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">research problems faced in cross-organizational processes and aims to<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">support investigation and novel solutions with regard to the specific<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">requirements arising in this context.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Cloud computing has been rapidly adopted by enterprises worldwide in<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">the recent years. Best practices and lessons learned accumulated over<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The EVL-BP workshop series is devoted to evolution in business<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">processes. Enterprises face the challenge of rapidly adapting to<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">dynamic business environments. The traditional approach to process<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">management is only partially appropriate to this new context, and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">calls for the advent of new, evolutionary business processes. This new<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">approach attempts to address specific issues related to flexibility<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">and adaptation such as design of easily adaptable processes, dynamic<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">handling of unexpected situations, optimality of adaptations, and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">change management. Central to the field of evolutionary business<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">processes is the notion of requirement, which drive the change of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">business processes through their life-cycles. The evolution of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">processes and their underlying software systems becomes more and more<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">an important and interesting topic in business process management.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Since the life time of software systems frequently spans many years,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">business processes modeled on top of systems cannot be assumed to<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">remain fixed, and migration between different versions is essential.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As a consequence, modeling and management techniques developed in the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">context of ad-hoc, short-term composition of services and their<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">processes lack the necessary constructs to concisely express the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">gradual evolution of processes and software systems and new dynamic,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">declarative, and/or configurable approaches in this context are<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">required.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The evolutionary approach to business processes raises a number of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">challenges: extracting declarative specifications from domain experts,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">expressing these declarative specifications in an appropriate language<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">or formalism, as well as designing, monitoring, checking compliance,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">configuring, or dynamically adapting business processes according to a<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">set of requirements, identification and systematic handling of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">changes, management of process versions, or quality attributes and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">measurement of business processes as predictors of evolutionary<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">business processes. Evolution in business processes takes place in a<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">wide number of domains, and is expected to impact existing and future<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">technology choices, business practices and standardization efforts.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This workshop will be an opportunity for participants to exchange<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">opinions, advance ideas, and discuss preliminary results on current<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">topics related to dynamic and declarative business processes. A<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">particular interest will be taken in bridging theoretical research and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">practical issues. To this end, contributions stating open problems,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Enterprise Engineering is the application of engineering principles to<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">the design of Enterprise Architectures. It allows deriving the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Enterprise Architecture from the enterprise goals and strategy.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Enterprise architecture aims (i) to understand the interactions and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">all kind of articulations between business and information technology,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">(ii) to define how to align business components and IT components, as<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">well as business strategy and IT strategy, and more particularly (iii)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">to develop and support a common understanding and sharing of those<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">purposes of interest. Enterprise architecture is used to map the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">enterprise goal and strategy to the enterprise’s resources (actors,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">assets, IT supports) and to take into account the evolution of this<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">mapping. It also provides documentation on the assignment of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">enterprise resources to the enterprise goals and strategy.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There are different paradigms for creating enterprise architecture.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The most important is to encapsulate the functionalities of IT<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">resources as services. By this means, it is possible to clearly<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">describe the contributions of IT both in terms of functionality and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">quality and to define a service-oriented enterprise architecture<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">(SoEA). The goal of the workshop is to develop concepts and methods to<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">assist the engineering and the management of service-oriented<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">enterprise architectures and the software systems supporting them.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The field of Enterprise Architecture (EA) has gained considerable<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">attention over the last of years. EA is important because<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">organisations need to adapt increasingly fast to changing customer<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">requirements and business goals. This need influences the entire chain<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">of activities of an enterprise, from business processes to IT support.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Moreover, a change in a particular part of the overall architecture<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">may influence many other parts of the architecture. For example, when<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">a new product is introduced, business processes for production, sales<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">and after-sales need to be adapted. It might be necessary to change<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">applications, or even adapt the IT infrastructure. Each of these<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">fields will have its own (partial) architectures. To keep the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">enterprise architecture coherent and aligned with the business goals,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">the relations between these different architectures must be explicit,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">and a change should be carried through methodically in all<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">architectures. In contrast to traditional architecture management<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">approaches such as IT architecture, software architecture or IS<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">architecture, EA explicitly incorporates "pure" business-related<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">artifacts in addition to traditional IS/IT artifacts. For Enterprise<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Architecture the focus is on the overall enterprise and concerns its<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">organization, its components, the relationship between components and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">principles governing its design and evolution.<o:p></o:p></p>
