CALL FOR PAPERS
7th International Workshop on Business Process Management and Social
Software (BPMS2)
in conjunction with BPM 2014
September 8th, 2014, Haifa, Israel
Papers submission deadline: June 1st, 2014

Organizers:

SCOPE
------
Social software is a new paradigm that is spreading quickly in society,
organizations and economics. More and more enterprises use social
software to improve their business processes and create new business
models. Social software provides new interaction patterns that allow to
integrate more stakeholders in a broader way and to design business
processes in a completely new way. These four patterns are:
• Weak ties
Weak-ties are spontaneously established contacts between individuals
that create new views and allow combining competencies. Social software
supports the creation of weak ties by supporting to create contacts in
impulse between non-predetermined individuals.
• Social Production
Social Production is the creation of artefacts, by combining the input
from independent contributors without predetermining the way to do this.
By this means it is possible to integrate new and innovative
contributions not identified or planned in advance.
• Egalitarianism
Egalitarianism is the equal handling of all contributors of a business
process. This is done with the intention to encourage a maximum of
contributors and to get the best solution fusioning a high number of
contributions, thus enabling the wisdom of the crowds.
• Value co-creation
Social software is based on the idea, that value-creation is a mutual
process. Thus both service producer and consumer (or better prosumer)
cooperate in order co-create value.
Applying these four patterns to business processes creates huge chances
for the design, implementation and operation of business processes.
Social software is used to communicate with the customer increasingly in
a bi-directional manner. Companies integrate customers into product
development using social software to capture ideas for new products and
features. Mass production is more and more replaced by the
individualized provisioning of services and products. Thus social
software establishes learning relationships with customers and
stakeholders. Inside companies, hierarchical structures are more and
more dissolved and replaced by a culture of trust. The exchange of
knowledge and information is improved. Innovations and decisions are
created socially and not by single experts and managers.
Combining social software and business process management benefits a lot
from the recent advances of data processing, subsumed as Big Data. Today
large amounts of semi-structured and unstructured data as created by
social software can be processed. Based on the analysis of this data,
social software is able to influence business process (management)
significantly.
-----------------
WORKSHOP GOALS
-----------------
The workshop has the goal to investigate the relationship of social
software and business process management in three areas.
1. Interaction of social software with business process management
2. Use of social software in business processes.
3. Leverage social software in business process management and business
processes using Big Data.
-------------------
WORKSHOP THEMES
-------------------
The workshop are organized according to the three areas.
1. Interaction of social software with business process management
- How interact weak ties, social production, egalitarianism and value
co-creation with business process management?
- Which phases of the BPM lifecycle (Design, Deployment, Operation, and
Evaluation) can profit the most from social software?
- Do we need new BPM methods and/or paradigms to cope with social software?
- How are trust and reputation established in business processes using
social software?
- How does social software interact with WFMS or other business process
support systems?
2. Use of social software in business processes
- Are there business processes which require sociality, especially when
they are not predictable (as production workflows) but collaborative or
ad hoc?
- How can we use Wikis, Blogs etc. to support business processes?
- Which types of social software can be used in which phases of the BPM
lifecycle?
- What new kinds of business knowledge representation are offered by
social production?
3. Leverage social software in business process management using Big Data.
- Which data created with social software can be used to support
business processes?
- Which categories of business processes can profit from big data ?
- Are there any similarities or relationships with process mining
techniques and also with workflow control and role patterns?
-----------
SUBMISSION
-----------
Prospective authors are invited to submit papers for presentation in any
of the areas listed above. Only papers in English will be accepted.
Length of full papers must not exceed 12 pages (There is no possibility
to buy additional pages). Position papers and tool reports should be no
longer than 6 pages. Papers should be submitted in the new LNBIP format
(http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-791344-0). Papers
have to present original research contributions not concurrently
submitted elsewhere. The title page must contain a short abstract, a
classification of the topics covered, preferably using the list of
topics above, and an indication of the submission category (regular
paper/position paper/tool report).
Please use Easychair for submitting your paper:
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bpms214
The paper selection will be based upon the relevance of a paper to the
main topics, as well as upon its quality and potential to generate
relevant discussion. All the workshop papers will be published by
Springer as a post-proceeding volume (to be sent around 4 months after
the workshop) in their Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing
(LNBIP) series.
-----------------
EXPECTED RESULTS
-----------------
All papers will be published on workshop wiki (www.bpms2.org) before the
workshop, so that everybody can learn about the problems that are
important for other participants. A blog will be used to encourage and
support discussions. The workshop will consist of long and short paper
presentations, brainstorming sessions and discussions. The workshop
report will be created collaboratively using a wiki. A special issue
over all workshops will be published in a journal (decision in progress).
The two papers collaboratively written by the BPMS2’08 and BPMS2’09
workshop authors (see below) have been accepted for publication in the
Journal of Software Maintenance and Evolution: Research and Practice
