</div>
<div>IEEE EDOC 2016 is the twentieth conference in a series that
provides the key forum for researchers and practitioners in the
field of enterprise computing. EDOC conferences address the full
range of models, methodologies, and engineering technologies
contributing to intra- and inter-enterprise application systems.
Since 1997, EDOC has brought together leading computer
scientists, IT decision makers, enterprise architects, solution
designers, and practitioners to discuss enterprise computing
challenges, models and solutions from the perspectives of
academia, industry, and government. The EDOC conference series
emphasizes a holistic view on enterprise applications
engineering and management, fostering integrated approaches that
address and relate business models, business processes, people
and technology.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>EDOC 2016 welcomes high quality scientific submissions as
well as experience papers on enterprise computing from industry.
The main theme of EDOC 2016 is ”Enabling innovative business
models in the enterprise of the future” and seeks to explore
innovative approaches synthesizing concepts of (1) data science,
(2) enterprise computing and (3) social computing.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Expert panel discussions and keynotes will address current
topics and issues in this domain.</div>
<div><br>

<div>Submission Guidelines</div>
<div>=====================</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Two types of paper submissions are solicited:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> a. scientific research papers, and</div>
<div> b. industry experience reports or case studies.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Scientific research papers should describe original results
not been accepted or submitted for publication elsewhere. These
papers will be evaluated based on their scientific and technical
contribution, originality, and relevance. In turn, industry
experience reports should provide new insights gained in case
studies or when applying enterprise computing technology in
practice; industry experience reports shall further provide
important feedback about the state of practice and pose
challenges for researchers. These papers will be evaluated based
on their appropriateness, significance, and clarity.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Submissions should be full papers with 8-10 pages. All
submissions must be made in PDF format and comply with the IEEE
Computer Society Conference Proceedings Format Guidelines. They
should be made via the electronic submission system of the EDOC
Conference Management system hosted on EasyChair.</div>
<div><br>
