Call for Papers for the I-KNOW'06 Special Track on Business Process
Oriented Knowledge
Infrastructures (BPOKI'06).
Introduction
The I-KNOW 2006 Special Track on Business Process Oriented Knowledge
Infrastructures is the third
in a series. The event aims to critically discuss new theories, concepts,
ideas, instruments and
systems that address support for knowledge intensive business processes in
organizations.
Background
Knowledge work in organisations becomes increasingly complex, interdependent
and dynamic today.
This development co-occurs with the emergence of sophisticated and advanced
information and
knowledge technologies that promise to make organizations more efficient.
However, the application
of these novel technologies for the effective support of knowledge workers in
organizations is far
from being well understood and a current research topic. The special track on
Business Process
Oriented Knowledge Infrastructures BPOKI'06 aims to address these challenges by
increasing
understanding about knowledge work, knowledge intensive business processes and
technological and
organizational instruments and systems for supporting them. Topics include but
are not limited to:
* Identification and modeling of knowledge work and knowledge intensive
business processes
* Identification and modeling of knowledge workers' context
* Design and development of knowledge intensive business processes and
knowledge infrastructures
* Fundamental technological instruments for business process oriented knowledge
infrastructures
* Categories, performance indexes and concepts for knowledge intensive business
processes
* Support for and improvement of knowledge intensive business processes
* Process- and knowledge reuse in business process oriented knowledge
infrastructures
* Quality and quality attributes (including e.g. flexibility, agility,
usability) in knowledge
intensive business processes and knowledge infrastructures
* Agent-oriented and domain-specific approaches to support for knowledge
intensive business processes
* Theory forming and development for the domain of business process oriented
knowledge infrastructures
Based on these topics, submissions may focus on, but are not limited to:
Semantic Process and
Knowledge Modeling, Workflow Management Systems, Case Based Systems,
Process-Oriented Information
Retrieval, User Context Identification, Process Simulation, -Mining and
-Optimization, Pattern
Identification and Analysis, Agile- and Agent Oriented Systems, Decision
Support Systems and
Knowledge Portals.
Type of Submissions
BPOKI'06 seeks contributions that introduce novel ideas and theories,
conceptual frameworks,
taxonomies and ontologies, technical applications and solutions, experiences as
well critical
arguments and discussions concerning the topics of this special track.
Target Group
The topics mentioned above equally address researchers and practitioners.
BPOKI'06 aims to present
and critically discuss latest work to increase understanding and gain new
insights about the
problem domain. The event will be held in English.
