<p class="MsoNormal">Modeling techniques are applied in diverse fields of enterprise<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">computing and information systems engineering. Having modeling tools<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">available for creating, editing and analyzing models is a central assumption<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">made in these research areas, because without appropriate tooling<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">support, model-based methods cannot be reasonably applied. Research<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">prototypes of model editors are required for developing and evaluating<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">new modeling methods and languages. To be able to efficiently apply and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">develop modeling techniques, it is thus desirable to methodically guide<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">the development of modeling tools with regard to their specific characteristics,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">e. g., by aligning their design with the conceptualizations of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">modeling languages via meta-models, or by deriving required model editor<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">functionality from high-level process specifications.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The workshop “Methodical Development of Modeling Tools” focuses on<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">procedures and architectural principles related to the creation of software<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">for editing, presenting, transforming, or analyzing models.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Process analytics involves the use of rich data store to generate insights into the design, execution,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Scientific Enterprise Engineering (EE) is the application of engineering<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">principles to the design of Enterprise Architectures (EA). It allows<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">deriving the Enterprise Architecture from the enterprise goals and strategy.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Enterprise architecture aims (i) to understand the interactions and all<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">kind of articulations between business and information technology,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">(ii) to define how to align business components and IT components,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">as well as business strategy and IT strategy, and more particularly<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">(iii) to develop and support a common understanding and sharing of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">those purposes of interest. Enterprise architecture is used to map the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">enterprise goal and strategy to the enterprise’s resources (actors,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">assets, IT supports) and to take into account the evolution of this mapping.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It also provides documentation on the assignment of enterprise resources<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">to the enterprise goals and strategy. There are different paradigms for<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">creating enterprise architecture. The most important is to encapsulate<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">the functionalities of IT resources as services. By this means, it is<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">possible to clearly describe the contributions of IT both in terms of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">functionality and quality and to define a service-oriented enterprise<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">architecture (SoEA). The goal of the workshop is to develop concepts<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">and methods to assist the engineering and the management of service-oriented<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">enterprise architectures and the software systems supporting them.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The EVL-BP workshop series is devoted to evolution in business processes.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Enterprises face the challenge of rapidly adapting to dynamic<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">business environments. Evolving markets, policies, regulations,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">technologies, and business models are some of the many vectors of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">change along which enterprise systems must constantly align.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The capability of rapidly adapting systems and processes to an<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">ever-changing environment to leverage existing resources has become<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">a crucial factor of an organization’s agility. In a recent EDOC<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">publication, Dam et al. pointed out the “need of techniques and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">tools that provide more effective automated support for change<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">propagation within an Enterprise Architecture model”. This workshop<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">focuses on the business process part of an enterprise evolution,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">called evolutionary business processes. It fosters new approaches<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">that address specific issues related to flexibility and adaptation<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">of business processes such as design of easily adaptable processes,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">dynamic handling of unexpected situations, optimality of adaptations,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">or change management.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">enterprise Big Data. The contemporary enterprise features the production, integration,

<p class="MsoNormal">analysis, and utilization of Big Data, which have the 4-V characteristics:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">revolutionizing our understanding and decision-making methods towards enter-<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">prises and society, uncovering the value behind Big Data requires developing<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">aspects, such as process configurations, resource allocations, scheduling

<p class="MsoNormal">multiple disciplines, such as data integration, data mining, statistics, business<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Big Data to business decision and corresponding analytic approaches remain an<o:p></o:p></p>
