<b>THE 11th ENTERPRISE ENGINEERING TRACK</b><br>
<br>
The ACM Symposium on Applied Computing has been a primary gathering
forum for computer scientists, computer and software engineers from
around the world. The ACM SAC conference is sponsored by the ACM
Special Interest Group on Applied Computing (SIGAPP). The 29th
Annual SAC will be held in Gyeongju, Korea between March 24-28 2014.<br>
<br>
Enterprise Engineering aims at researching concepts, methods and
tools to facilitate the modelling, governance and analysis of the
multiple aspects pertaining to an organization. Its primary focus is
on understanding the relationships and dependencies between
cross-cutting concerns such as business processes, goals, strategy,
people and the supporting systems and technology. Enterprise
Engineering therefore encompasses multi-disciplinary topics, such as
business process modelling, business process management, enterprise
architecture, enterprise ontology and business-IS-IT alignment.<br>
<br>
The ACM SAC Enterprise Engineering track provides an opportunity for
researchers, academics and practitioners interested in enterprise
engineering to present their results, exchange their ideas and
discuss open issues.<br>
<br>

<b>PAPERS AND SUBMISSION GUIDELINES</b><b><br>
</b><br>
Accepted papers will be published in the ACM SAC proceedings and
indexed in the ACM and IEEE digital libraries. The authors of the
best papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their
work to a specialized journal.<br>
<br>
The ACM SAC is a refereed conference and each paper will undergo a
double-blind review by three specialized referees. Papers will be
evaluated according to their significance, technical content,
originality, style and clarity. Note that ACM SAC has grown to be a
competitive conference and the acceptance rate is below 25%.<br>
<br>
All submitted papers can only be submitted to a single ACM SAC
track. Similar papers submitted to more than one track will be
automatically removed from the conference. <br>
<br>
Paper submissions are made electronically in PDF format via the ACM
SAC online track management system at <a
class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://www.softconf.com/d/sac2014/">https://www.softconf.com/d/sac2014/</a><br>
<br>
Submitted papers must be formatted using the ACM SIG format.
Document templates (LaTeX, MS Word) are available at <a
class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://www.acm.org/conferences/sac/sac2014/">http://www.acm.org/conferences/sac/sac2014/</a>.
Please omit the author names and contacts from the submitted paper
for review. The paper length is 6 pages using the ACM SIG format.
Authors may opt to add 2 additional pages at extra charge, up to a
maximum of 8 pages. Authors of quality papers that are not accepted
as full papers will be invited to publish their work as a short
paper presented as a poster during the conference. The short paper
length is 2 pages, plus one extra page at extra charge.<br>
<br>
At least one author is required to attend the conference and present
the paper. Papers that are not presented at the conference will be
removed from the ACM and IEEE digital libraries. <br>
<br>
Please do not hesitate contacting us any time for content guidance
or any questions. More information on ACM SAC 2014 at the official
