[ecoop-info] Deadline extension Workshop on Enterprise Modeling

[Sergio de Cesare]

*** Deadline extended to 1 June 2014 ***

*** CALL FOR PAPERS ***

1st International Workshop on Enterprise Modeling (ENMO 2014)

URL: http://people.brunel.ac.uk/~cbstssc2/events/enmo2014 

co-located with the 33rd International Conference on Conceptual Modeling (ER 2014)
Atlanta, GA, USA, October 27-30, 2014



*** Purpose and scope ***

The objective of the Workshop on Enterprise Modeling (ENMO) is to provide an international forum for exchanging ideas on the latest developments in the area of enterprise modeling by both academics and practitioners. Enterprise modeling can be broadly defined as the use of conceptual specifications as part of business applications. The workshop looks for papers that present state-of-the-art research or practices in the area of enterprise modeling. Example of topics that would be a good fit for the ENMO workshop include: novel applications resulting from the formalization of enterprise ontologies, behavioral studies related to enterprise modeling notations from a user perspective, the specification of reference models for specific business applications such as internal control or supply chain, a discussion of how ERP vendors employ enterprise modeling techniques in the era of the semantic web and cloud computing, a discussion of how enterprise ontologies are being used in practice. One of the workshop’s goals is to create an environment that allows cross-fertilization between research and practice and across the different enterprise modeling sub-disciplines.  

 
*** Topics ***

Enterprise modeling covers a wide range of topics with new issues continuously emerging. Therefore, the topics listed below are examples and many other topics will be considered. Also, we are open to any research methodology.
