Dear Colleagues,

I will be grateful to you for advertising CAISE'11 FORUM, for inviting 
your colleagues and/or research students to submit their work.

Submitting your visionary works and/or short papers describing 
innovative tools is also a way of promoting the CAISE FORUM.

The Call for Papers is included underneath. It can also be downloaded at 
http://www.caise2011.com/resource/cfP_Forum_2011.pdf

Paper submissions deadline: March 21, 2011
Notification of Acceptance: April 28, 2011

I wish happy holidays and a happy, healthy and successful New Year.

IS Olympics: Information Systems in a diverse world

*****************************************************************

*CALL FOR SHORT PAPERS AND TOOL DEMONSTRATIONS (FORUM)*

The CAISE conference theme is linked this year with the coming Olympic 
and Paralympic Games, which bring together athletes from all the 
continents to celebrate sporting excellence but also human diversity. 
Diversity is an important concept for modern information systems. 
Information Systems (IS) are diverse by nature, as well as the processes 
for constructing such systems, their developers, their users… It is 
therefore the responsibility of the IS Engineering community to engineer 
information systems that operate in such diverse world. During the two 
last decades, essential challenges made their appearance in the area of 
Information Systems related to engineering, quality and 
interconnectivity of information systems.
The CAiSE’11 Forum is a place within the CAiSE conference for presenting 
and discussing new ideas and tools related to information systems 
engineering. Intended to serve as an interactive platform, the forum 
aims at the presentation of fresh ideas, emerging new topics, 
controversial positions, as well as demonstration of innovative systems, 
tools and applications. The Forum sessions at the CAiSE conference will 
facilitate the interaction, discussion, and exchange of ideas among 
presenters and participants.

*Important dates*:

Submission deadline: 21st March 2011
Notification of acceptance: 28th April 2011
Camera-ready papers due: 20th May 2011

*Topics of interest include but are not restricted to*:

- Methodologies and approaches for IS engineering

•Enterprise architecture and enterprise modelling
•Requirements engineering
•Business process modelling and management
•Simulation
•Model, component, and software reuse
•IS reengineering
•Adaptive IS engineering approaches
•Knowledge, information, and data quality
•Knowledge patterns and ontologies for IS engineering
•Methodologies and Languages for Secure IS
•IS engineering approaches for adaptive and flexible information systems
•IS in networked & virtual organizations
•Method engineering
•Quality of models and of modelling languages
•Usability, trust, flexibility, interoperability

- Innovative platforms, architectures and technologies for IS engineering

•Service-oriented architecture
•Model-driven architecture
•Component based development
•Software Agent architecture
•Distributed, mobile, and open architecture
•Innovative database technology
•Semantic web
•IS and ubiquitous technologies
•Adaptive and context-aware IS

- Engineering of specific kinds of IS

•eGovernment
•Data warehousing
•Knowledge management systems
•Enterprise systems (ERP, CRM)
•Workflow systems
•Content management systems

- Emerging Areas of IS
•IS & Digital Ecologies
•IS & Digital Devices
•IS & Smart Buildings
•IS & their Economies

*Submissions*

We invite two types of submissions:
(1) Visionary short papers: papers that present innovative research 
projects, which are still at a relatively early stage and do not 
necessarily include a full-scale validation.
(2) Demo papers: short papers describing innovative tools and prototypes 
that implement the results of research efforts. The tools and prototypes 
will be presented as demos in the Forum.
Forum papers must not exceed 8 pages in LNCS format (see 
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html for further details). The 
submitted papers must be unpublished and must not be under review elsewhere.
The accepted papers will be included in the special proceedings issue 
titled “CAiSE Forum”, which will be formally published by CEUR. In 
addition, the CAiSE Forum papers will be included in the electronic 
proceedings handed to CAiSE participants. After CAiSE’11, authors of the 
selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their 
papers for post-proceedings that will be published as a Springer LNBIP 
volume.
Submission should be made through the conference management system 
available at:
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=caise2011forum

*Presentations*

It is expected that one of the authors presents the short paper and 
participates at the forum discussions. Indeed, the CAiSE forum being 
intended for intensive discussion, the papers are to be shortly 
presented and large room is to be left for exchange of positions and 
ideas among the authors and the audience. The presentation will be 
possible as a poster (for submission type 1) or demo (for submission 
type 2).
