Enterprise modeling (EM) is a quintessential discipline for understanding, analyzing
and developing enterprises. It serves as a starting point for designing complex
information systems and onboarding new technologies in the context of Internet of
Things, Factories of the Future and Cyber-Physical Systems. Enterprise models
represent various interrelated aspects of enterprises and are used as communication
vehicles among all parties involved. The principle of openness and collaboration is
essential for these purposes as well as the need for methods and tools supporting
collaborative development of complex systems.
OMiLAB (Open Models Initiative Laboratory) is a scientific experimentation space
for the conceptualization, development, and deployment of modeling methods and the
models designed with them. Thereby, the term “open” in OMiLAB reflects that the
initiative is open for any modeling approach. Besides the physical OMiLABs in Austria
and South Korea there is a virtual OMiLAB accessible at www.omilab.org which
allows scientists from all over the world to join this initiative and benefit from open
artifacts.
In this context, the PrOse workshop focuses on how open enterprise models, enterprise
modeling methods and enterprise modeling tools are: (1) used, (2) adopted, and (3)
evaluated in education, industry, and research. In 2018, the PrOse workshop was held
in conjunction with the 11th
IFIP WG 8.1 working conference on the Practice of Enterprise Modelling (PoEM) in
Vienna, Austria.
This year, the PrOse workshop attracted 10 submissions from 9 countries. They were
rigorously reviewed by the Program Committee. As a result, 8 high-quality papers have
been selected for publication in this volume and presentation at the conference. They
cover different aspects of open enterprise modeling methods and their application and
teaching.
In the area of domain-specific modeling, the paper by Yeongbok Choe and Moonkun
Lee titled “Process Model to Predict Nondeterministic Behavior of IoT Systems”
focuses on formal modeling of IoT systems including tool support provided by ADOxx.
The paper by Frank Wolff and Kai Bieler “Evolutionary Student Research Projects in
Domain Specific Modelling for an ERP-System with ADOxx” advocates using
domain-specific modeling techniques for the configuration of ERP systems. The paper
by Santa Zvirbule and Marite Kirikova “Variability Modeling for New Technology
Choices in a Facility Management Domain” exposes variety in technologies used in
facility management and promotes using variability modeling techniques to deal with
this variety.
In the area of Enterprise modeling and tools, Anca Chiș-Rațiu and Robert Andrei
Buchmann in their paper “Design and Implementation of a Diagrammatic Tool for
Creating RDF graphs” investigate development of modeling tools in the context of agile
development approaches. Afef Awadid and Selmin Nurcan “Tool Support for the EKD
Enterprise Modeling Method: Towards Managing Inter-View Consistency” develop an
EKD tool with a focus on managing inter-view consistency what is crucial for large
modeling projects intended for further development of information systems. Renata
Petrevska Nechkoska, Geert Poels and Jelena Zdravkovic “Enterprise Adaptability
Using a Capability-oriented Methodology and Tool Support” emphasize the importance
of tool support for analyzing complexities of enterprise adaptation.
In the area of digital service and modeling, the paper by Henderik A. Proper and
Kurt Sandkuhl “The Context of Collaborative Digital Service Development” concerns
representation of context affecting the design of digital services and reports a case study
on digital service design. Marvin Schönwälder, Tom Szilagyi, Florian Bär, Birger
Lantow and Kurt Sandkuhl “IT Self-Service Blueprinting - A Visual Notation for
Designing IT Self-Services” elaborate a visual notation to facilitate perception of
enterprise models by various stakeholders.
We would like to thank everyone who contributed to the PrOse 2018 workshop. We
thank the authors for contributing and presenting their research, we appreciate
invaluable contribution of the members of the Program Committee and we thank all
members of the local organization team from the University of Vienna for handling
organizational matters. We acknowledge the EasyChair development team for
providing such a convenient tool for managing the submission and review process and
the CEUR publishing team for their collaboration. Last but not the least we thank the
PoEM conference Steering Committee, conference chairs and workshop chairs for their
support and we hope that PrOse 2018 was a valuable addition to the further
development of the PoEM conference series and enterprise modeling community.
