Dear Colleague,

I will be grateful to you for advertising the First Workshop on Service 
oriented Enterprise Architecture for Enterprise Engineering (SoEA at EE'09), 
for submitting your work and inviting your colleagues and/or research 
students to submit their work.

SoEA at EE'09 is organised in conjunction with the 13th International 
Enterprise Computing Conference (EDOC) on September 1st, 2009, Auckland, 
New Zealand.


Proceedings of EDOC 2009 workshops will be published after the conference 
as ePub by the IEEE Computer Society Conference Publishing Services (CPS) 
and included in the IEEE Computer Society Digital Library (CSDL) and the 
IEEE Xplore.


The goal of the SoEA at EE'09 workshop is to clarify the relationship between 
business process management and service provisioning. The objective is twofold:
(i) To characterise the strong relationship existing between Business 
Process Management (BPM) and Service oriented Enterprise Architecture (SoEA)
(ii) To develop concepts and methods to assist the engineering and the 
management of Service-Oriented Enterprise Architectures (SoEA) and their 
support systems.

SCOPE:

Services have become an impressive factor for growth and the creation of 
jobs. 93% of the new jobs created in the U.S. between 1970 and 2000 are 
jobs in services . Leading enterprises in the U.S. derive more than 50% of 
their revenues from services. This applies not only to pure services such 
as transportation but also for material products that are augmented by 
services such as maintenance, consulting and training. Through services, 
enterprises stabilize their revenues. There is no accepted general 
definition of service, but many definitions contain the idea, that a 
service is “the application of specialized competences (knowledge and 
skills) for the benefit of another entity, rather than the production of 
units of output” . Services are more and more considered as part of a 
so-called service system. A service system is defined “as a value 
co-production configuration of people, technology, other internal and 
external service systems, and shared information (such as language, 
processes, metrics, prices, policies, and laws)”.

Therefore it is no surprise that the term service has also become very 
popular in enterprise computing. However, the term service may have 
different meanings in enterprise computing. Three flavours of services can 
be differentiated: technology services, software-services, and business 
services.
1. Technology services are more hardware flavoured services which are 
provided using computers. They may have a human addressee but contain many 
infrastructure services such as providing computing power, storage etc. 
They are an important topic in management and practice collections such as 
ITILV3 or standards such as ISO/IEC 20000 have gained a high popularity.
2. Software services are managed in so-called 
Service-Oriented-Architectures that are a popular paradigm for creating 
enterprise software. A service in the context of SOA is a special kind of 
interface for an encapsulated unit of software.
3. Business services are services which directly support business 
processes. They may be further differentiated into those visible to the 
customer and those that are not. Business processes can also be developed 
dynamically (on-the-fly) using business services which are available in a 
repository for a given business domain.

In the field of Information Systems and -in a broader sense- Enterprise 
Computing, the notion of “Enterprise modelling” refers to a collection of 
conceptual modelling techniques for describing different facets of the 
organisation including operational (IS), organisational (business 
processes, actors, flow of information etc), and teleological (purposes) 
considerations. Existing enterprise modelling frameworks stress the 
necessity of representing and structuring enterprise knowledge taking into 
account all these facets in order to develop IS and IT architectures that 
enterprises need. The contribution of the software systems to the 
realization of the business processes and consequently to the objectives of 
the company is of primary importance. A change in one of these facets of 
the organization implies multiple impacts on the two other facets. In other 
words, it seems unrealistic to consider an organizational change without 
any impact on the information system or an evolution of the IS which does 
not call into question the processes or even the objectives of the 
organization.

An enterprise architecture,,defines the interactions and articulations 
between business and information technology and their alignment or 
congruence. A service-oriented enterprise architecture uses services to 
describe the articulations of business and information technology. It has 
to identify the business services needed to support the business processes 
of the enterprise, and to map the business services to technology and 
software services . Technology and software services are both called IT 
services in the following.

The enterprise computing systems which shall manage Service-oriented 
Enterprise Architectures have to support the creation, administration and 
execution of services. Thus, they must be able to store the service 
definitions and make them available for a consumer in a service catalogue. 
The same applies to the so-called service-level agreements that define the 
quality of service agreed upon with consumers. Upon a service request from 
a consumer entity, the service support system has to monitor the fulfilment 
of the service-level agreements and also to provide remediation procedures 
which contain so-called escalation mechanisms. Furthermore, based on the 
monitoring, improvement procedures shall be established.


GOALS:

The goal of the workshop is to clarify the relationship between business 
process management and service provisioning. The objective of this workshop 
is twofold:
(i) To characterise the strong relationship existing between Business 
Process Management (BPM) and Service oriented Enterprise Architecture (SoEA)
(ii) To develop concepts and methods to assist the engineering and the 
management of Service-Oriented Enterprise Architectures (SoEA) and their 
support systems.



TOPICS OF INTEREST:

During the workshop we will discuss the following topics:

1. Service engineering
- Do we need new paradigms to cope with service engineering?
- How are business services discovered, defined, composed, adapted?
- How are business services assigned to business processes?
- How are technology-services discovered, defined, composed, adapted?
- How are technology-services assigned to business services?
- Are there design patterns for developing service-oriented systems?
- How can the MDA/MDD techniques and methods be applied for engineering SoEA?
- Which test methods exist for technology-services?
- How are business services and technology-services rolled out?
- Which change management procedures have to be applied during the 
deployment of SoEA?

2. Service management
- Which benchmarks and key performance indicators should be applied to 
services?
- Which information system architectures are adequate for services?
- Which approaches exist for mastering the migration of legacy systems to 
SoEA?
- Which triggers exist and what mechanisms should be applied for escalation?
- Which approaches exist for the continual improvement of services?
- Which evaluation and validation techniques can be applied for SoEA?

3. Alignment with business strategy
- Which interdependencies exist between services and business strategy?
- Which concepts and methods are necessary to align services with the 
business strategy?
- Which new potentials to reengineer business processes are created by 
services?
- How are services aligned with compliance requirements?
- How are compliance and governance requirements enforced?


SUBMISSION:

Full papers (8-10 pages in the IEEE-CS format) describing mature results 
are sought. In addition, short papers (4 pages in the IEEE-CS format) may 
be submitted to facilitate discussion of recent research results and 
ongoing projects. 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 papers published in the EDOC 2009 workshop proceedings must be in the 
IEEE Computer Society format (http://www.computer.org/portal/site/cscps/ 
information for authors). It is strongly recommended that all papers are 
already in this format when they are first submitted to workshops. This 
gives precise picture of the paper length and avoids rework if the paper is 
accepted.

All papers will be peer reviewed based on the paper. Please submit your 
paper to Selmin.Nurcan. at univ-paris1.fr

Proceedings of EDOC 2009 workshops will be published after the conference 
as ePub by the IEEE Computer Society Conference Publishing Services (CPS) 
and included in the IEEE Computer Society Digital Library (CSDL) and the 
IEEE Xplore. There will be one electronic volume containing proceedings 
from all workshops.

At least one author of each accepted workshop paper will have to register 
for the whole EDOC 2009 conference and attend the workshop to present the 
paper. Analogously to previous years, there will be no workshop-only 
registration at EDOC 2009. If a paper is not presented in the workshop, it 
will be removed from the workshop proceedings published in the IEEE Xplore 
digital library.



EXPECTED RESULTS:

All papers will be published in the workshop wiki before the workshop, so 
that everybody can learn about the problems that are important for other 
participants. The workshop will consist of long and short paper 
presentations, brainstorming sessions and discussions. A workshop report 
will be created collaboratively using the workshop wiki.



IMPORTANT DATES:

Paper submission: May 31, 2009
Author notification: July 12, 2009
Camera-ready: July 24, 2009
