ORGANISERS: Selmin Nurcan – University Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne, France Rainer Schmidt – University of Applied Sciences, Aalen, Germany

GOALS:

The goal of the workshop is to develop concepts and methods to assist the engineering and the management of service-oriented enterprise architectures and the software systems supporting them. Especially three themes of research shall be pursued: 1. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategies with the service-oriented enterprise architecture 2. Design of the service-oriented enterprise architecture 3. Mapping of service-oriented enterprise architecture to enterprise resources

TOPICS OF DISCUSSION:

During the workshop we will discuss the following topics:

1. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategy with the service-oriented enterprise architecture

• 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 non-functional requirements derived from enterprise goals and strategy?
• How are services aligned with non-functional requirements?
• How are services aligned with compliance requirements?
• Are the compliance and governance requirements enforced using service-oriented enterprise architectures?

1. Design of service-oriented enterprise architecture

• How are business, software, platform and infrastructure services defined?
• How are business services assigned to business processes?
• How are business services assigned to non-functional requirements?
• How are service (value) nets -consisting of business, software, platform and infrastructure services- created?
• How does service-oriented enterprise architecture, interrelate with cloud computing?
• How do meta-services differentiate for business, software, platform and infrastructure services?
• How are appropriate meta-services designed?
• Which phases do the lifecycle of business, software, platform and infrastructure services contain?
• How can the fulfilment of non-functional requirements be monitored?
• Which benchmarks and key performance indicators should be applied to services?
• Which approaches exist for the continual improvement of services?

1. Mapping of service-oriented enterprise architecture to enterprise resources

• Which resources are relevant for Service-oriented Enterprise Architecture?
• How are services mapped to enterprise resources?
• Which approaches exist to map services to resources?
• Which information system architectures are adequate for services?
• How can non-functional requirements be mapped to capacity planning of resources?

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 contributions will be peer reviewed based on the complete version, being full or short.

All papers published in the EDOC 2010 workshop proceedings must be in the IEEE Computer Society format (http://www2.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting). 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.

Please submit your paper to Selmin.Nurcan@univ-paris1.fr

Proceedings of EDOC 2010 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 2010 conference and attend the workshop to present the paper. Analogously to previous years, there will be no workshop-only registration at EDOC 2010. 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 (www.soea4ee.org) 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: April 17, 2010 Author notification: June 4, 2010 Camera-ready due: June 16, 2010
