Workshops Call

This joint call for workshops allows high flexibility and enables leveraging impact by taking advantage of the co-located EDOC and CBI main conferences. This is an opportunity to bring the EDOC and CBI communities together to exchange ideas, identify synergies, build new collaborations, and further promote research in the field of business informatics.

Workshop Proposals

Workshops should allow participants to present and discuss novel research ideas on areas relevant to business informatics. They should focus on an emerging topic of technical interest, a unique area of application, or a community-wide issue that deserves specialized attention. Organizers are encouraged to focus on mechanisms other than traditional paper presentations and to differentiate themselves clearly from typical conference sessions. It is expected that the workshops have an international committee and are held in English.

We invite proposals (see important dates) for one-day or half-day workshops, which in principle will be held during the first day of the event (day of 9th September), but workshops’ proposals might include diferent suggestions for that.

Topics

The workshops can focus on the established technologies in new application areas, or in any new areas of inquiries as, for example:

  • Sustainability and green ICT
  • Enterprise architecture
  • Interoperability, federation, and integration
  • Service-oriented architectures
  • Software architecture and engineering
  • Model-driven engineering
  • Digital twins
  • Enterprise security, information privacy, and consent
  • Distributed ledgers and smart contracts
  • Business process and business rules
  • Advanced analytics and AI for business and consumer applications
  • Semantics and information management
  • Digital ethics, law, and human rights
  • AI concerns – Community trust, resilience, and responsibility
  • Human machine ecology

      • Clear designation of main contact with emails and phone numbers
    • Workshop Contents
      • Title
      • Short description covering: problem statement and theoretical foundation, interactive methods (case studies, panels, hands-on activities, …)
      • Workshop relevance to EDOC and/or CBI
      • Direct participants: invited speakers (with acceptance status), panelists/expert discussants and program committee members
      • Intended audience (besides the direct participants)

      Accepted workshops might have their own call, which must be announced here in the general page for the Workshops Program, but organizers of workshops are motivated to set up their own workshop’s page for more detailed information (which can be hosted in an own server, or here in the conferences’ main site, if properly requested and possible).

      Publication

      The workshop proposal must include the intention of where to publish the workshop papers, if that is the case, which might comprise:

      • Publication in coordination with the other EDOC and CBI tracks, in a post-proceedings volume in CEUR, or in the LNBIP series by Springer, or in a Volume 2 of CBI’s IEEE proceedings;
      • or in anyother venue the workshop organizers had decided…

      Options with CEUR, LNBIP or IEEE require a maximum 50% acceptance rate for publication, and final papers complying with the specific required templates.
