Preface
This volume contains the proceedings of two workshops that were held in
conjunction with PoEM 2020: the BES workshop (1st Workshop on Blockchain
and Enterprise Systems) and ManComp 2020 (5th Workshop on Managed
Complexity).
The BES workshop has the ambition to change the way one thinks, designs and
implements enterprise systems. In an interconnected society, there is a
growing need for coordination among different organizations, asking for
trustable solutions to develop enterprise systems. From the technical
perspective, the workshop can contribute to breaking the technological
barriers for wider use of the blockchain in the enterprise systems, proposing
novel approaches for the definition of such systems.
Enterprise architectures integrate well-defined principles and practices for the
analysis, design, planning, and implementation of enterprise systems. To
achieve an effective digital transformation, organizations need to close the
gap between business, information, processes and technology, which is
necessary to achieve their final strategy. In this respect, blockchain technology
can bring huge advantages in many sectors, as it can guarantee the integrity
and immutability of data without relying on a central authority or any
particular entity. Thus, blockchain can be considered as the enabling
technology that guarantees a tamper-proof execution of contractual
obligations among organizations. However, for a large adoption of this
technology, recent challenges should be addressed, such as the support of
multiple blockchain platforms and the generation of the related smart
contracts, breaking the technological barriers for non-expert users, etc.
The BES workshop received 10 submissions and published 8 papers from
researchers affiliated in Belgium, Germany, Italy, Latvia, Switzerland, and the
United States of America. The authors cover different aspects of blockchain
and enterprise systems with a particular focus on algorithms, software
engineering methodologies, simulation, execution, configurators and case
studies. The papers were reviewed and selected by the program committee
after a rigorous reviewing process. Each paper was assigned to at least three
members of the program committee. More information about the selection
process can be found via http://pros.unicam.it/bes2020/index.html.
The ManComp workshop is focused on approaches and methods for managing
complexity in the domain of applied informatics that may concern interplay of
systems and ecosystems of various sizes and substances. Its purpose is to
share and transfer knowledge on complexity identification, representation,
controlling and reduction as well as to exploit possible synergies in
development of innovative complexity handling strategies, approaches, and
methods.
The ultimate goal of the workshop is bringing together researchers and
practitioners to discuss theoretical approaches or real-life case studies
featuring success and/or failure stories in managing complexity. Purpose of
these discussions is to deepen the understanding of strategies, approaches,
and methods in managing complexity in enterprise, software and hardware
engineering. A cross-pollination of experiences in both domains is assumed.
This year we had 7 contributions that were reviewed by at least two reviewers.
Finally, we were able to accept 5 papers from researchers that will be
presented on November 10th. The foundation of the papers is management
of complexity, and they span topics such as architecture, mergers &
acquisitions, risk, predictions and digital work. The authors are from Germany,
Latvia and Denmark. More information about the selection process can be
found via https://wwwswt.informatik.uni-rostock.de/ManComp2020/call.
Finally, we would like to express our gratitude to the Program Committee
members and all participants for their efforts in discussing the submitted
papers.
