Call for Industrial Contributions
The Business Process Management (BPM) conference is the primary forum for researchers and practitioners to exchange the latest advances in the state of the art and practice of business process management. BPM 2011 is the ninth edition of the BPM conference, and will once again focus on attracting high quality, innovative research papers and practice reports from all aspects of business process management.
The Industrial Track at BPM 2011 aims at bridging the viewpoints of leading research outcomes with the practical demands and industrial experience. We solicit original, high quality contributions from industrial practitioners and researchers in the domain of business processes.
In particular, the BPM’2011 Industrial track will accepts two types of contributions:
- Practitioner reports. Practitioners are encouraged to submit short papers (maximum of 4 pages) reporting on innovative industrial implementations, use case studies and applications of BPM methods and techniques, or the development of new features, experiments, products or solutions that demonstrate innovation in the application and implementation of business processes. All authors of the practitioner report papers should be from practitioners in public or private organizations. It should be noted that papers on existing product descriptions or product marketing information are not within the scope of the BPM'2011 Industrial Track.
- Industrial research papers. Industrial researchers are invited to submit papers (maximum of 12 pages) to report on novel practical research in an industrial environment, experience report about a process-based application or experimentation that has some novel element or had not been tried before, or innovative approaches on specification, design, or implementation of business process tools and techniques. All authors of industrial research papers should be either from an organization directly involved in industrial research or applications.
