Dear colleagues,
We will be grateful to you for advertising the 16th Workshop on Service
oriented Enterprise Architecture for Enterprise Engineering (SoEA4EE
2025), for submitting your work and inviting your colleagues and/or
research students to submit their work.
SoEA4EE 2025 is organised in conjunction with the 29th International
Conference on Enterprise Design, Operations, and Computing (EDOC) from 9
to 12 september 2025 in Lisbon, Portugal. EDOC 2025 will be hosted by
the Instituto Superior Técnico, INESC-ID and INOV, being co-located with
the 27th International Conference on Business Informatics (CBI 2025).
The SoEA4EE workshop (Service oriented Enterprise Architecture for
Enterprise Engineering) focuses on the paradigm of encapsulating digital
resources and capacities as services for enterprise architecture. The
workshop aims to develop concepts and methods to assist the engineering
and management of service-oriented enterprise architectures (SoEA) and
the software systems supporting them in the Computing Continuum.
SoEA4EE 2025 papers will be published in a joint post-proceedings volume
for all EDOC 2025 + CBI 2025 workshops, with *Springer* under the
Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (*LNBIP*) series.
Best regards,
Selmin Nurcan & Rainer Schmidt

SoEA4EE 2025 CALL FOR PAPERS
16th International Workshop on Service oriented Enterprise Architecture
for Enterprise Engineering (SoEA4EE 2025) (you can spell 'Sophie')
in conjunction with EDOC 2025
September 9th to 12th, 2025, Lisbon, Portugal
https://cbi-edoc-2025.inesc-id.pt/call-workshop-soea4ee/
Organisers:
Selmin Nurcan – University Paris 1 Pantheon Sorbonne, France
Rainer Schmidt – Munich University of Applied Sciences, Germany
Papers submission deadline: *July 14, 2025*
Detailed Call for Papers is below.
***********************************************************************************************
--------
GOAL
--------
Enterprise Engineering (EE) is the application of engineering principles
to the design of Enterprise Architectures (EA). It enables deriving the
Enterprise Architecture from the enterprise goals and strategy, and
aligning it with the enterprise resources in the Computing Continuum.
Enterprise architecture maps the enterprise goal and strategy to the
enterprise’s resources (actors, assets, IT supports) and supports the
evolution of this mapping. It also provides documentation on the
assignment of enterprise resources to the enterprise goals and strategy,
e.g., for establishing new business models such as platforms.
The SoEA4EE workshop focuses on the paradigm of encapsulating digital
resources and capacities as services for enterprise architecture. The
workshop aims to develop concepts and methods to assist the engineering
and management of service-oriented enterprise architectures (SoEA) and
the software systems supporting them in the Computing Continuum.
-------------------------
TOPICS FOR DISCUSSION
-------------------------
During the workshop we will discuss the following topics:
1. Digital enterprises, Industry 4.0 and Platforms in the Computing
Continuum
- New trends in digitization for EA and EE e.g. Industry
4.0, platforms
- Impacts of digitized products on EA
- EA - contributions and challenges for digital
transformation, Industry 4.0, and platforms
- Fitting SoEA with cloud, edge, fog computing
- Pervasive service ecosystems
- Context awareness and service orientation in ubiquitous
computing
2. SoEA and influence of Artificial Intelligence, social information
systems, and big data in Enterprise Engineering
- Trends in SoEA to use the capabilities of Artificial
Intelligence, social information systems and big data (volume, variety,
velocity, veracity)
- Impacts of Artificial Intelligence, social information
systems, and big data on the SoEA
- Use of ChatGPT, etc. as component of Enterprise Architecture
- Generative AI as tool in Enterprise Engineering
3. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategy with the SoEA
- Interdependencies between services and business goals
- Concepts and methods to align services with the business
strategy
- New potentials and trends created by services to
reengineer business processes
- Quality issues and non-functional requirements for SoEA
- Coherence of services with compliance requirements (among
others, GDPR, ISO/IEC 27001 and 27002, ISO 15408)
4. Design of SoEA
- Specifications of business, software, platform, and
infrastructure services
- Matching business services with business processes
- Lifecycle of business, software, platform, and
infrastructure services
- Data-driven monitoring of the fulfilment of non-functional
requirements (big data, IoT, …)
- Benchmarks and key performance indicators for services
- Approaches the continual improvement of services
5. Governance of SoEA
- Impacts of SoEA on the compliance and governance requirements
- Meta-services for business, software, platform, and
infrastructure services
- Building service (value) nets -consisting of business,
software, platform and infrastructure services
- Meta-services for cloud-environments
- Impacts of VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity,
Ambiguity) on the governance of EA
--------------
SUBMISSION
--------------
Full papers describing mature results are sought. In addition, idea
papers may be submitted to facilitate discussion of recent research
results and ongoing projects. Industry experience reports that provide
new insights gained in case studies or when applying service-oriented EA
for enterprise engineering are also welcome. The paper selection will be
based on the relevance of a paper to the main topics and its quality and
potential to generate relevant discussion. All contributions will be
peer-reviewed based on the complete version.
Please note that all submissions (10 to 15 pages) should be made in PDF
format and comply with the Springer LNCS/LNBIP conference proceedings
template (for LaTeX and Word):
https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines.
Please submit your paper to Easychair at

Choose track SoEA4EE’2025 - 16th Workshop on Service oriented
Enterprise Architecture for Enterprise Engineering
At least one author of each accepted workshop paper will have to
register for the whole EDOC 2025 conference and attend the workshop to
present the paper.
The SoEA4EE workshop has been a full-day workshop in conjunction with

In 2012, the authors of the selected papers from the four previous
editions of SoEA4EE have been invited to submit an extended version of
their paper to a special issue of the International Journal of

January-March 2015,* presents four papers selected after a two-round
peer review and covering a broad spectrum of themes in Service Oriented
Enterprise Architecture Engineering from technical to conceptual and
managerial themes.
