The 2022 Enterprise Engineering Working Conference (EEWC 2022) will be the
12th working conference addressing the field of Enterprise Engineering,
with main proceedings published in Springer's Lecture Notes in Business
Information Processing
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=RnJcWvoPN72qAFwSj445/OZc6thCOxDFqXiq/VOPG0xIxrudbIk5mZLdhE7GpWZv>
(LNBIP). The goal remains to gather academics and practitioners in order to
share innovative research issues and practical experiences, balancing
rigour and relevance, as well as to facilitate profound discussions on the
discipline of enterprise engineering
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=xu3NqfKQHq+A4+j61amX/uZc6thCO0DFqXiq/VOPG0xIxrudbImpmZLdhE7GpWZv>
. More specifically, the plan is to have each paper go through the
following process:

 Each submitted paper (via EasyChair) abiding the specifications will be
reviewed by three reviewers. The reviewers will be asked to recommend
acceptance of the paper as (full or short) paper in Springer EEWC
proceedings; or as a paper in EEWC Forum CEUR proceedings. Papers that are
selected as Short Papers for the Springer EEWC proceedings may still be
accepted as full papers, provided they are considerably improved (see point
3).
 The authors will be requested to provide an updated version of their
papers before the conference, taking into account the review comments, to
be presented at the conference, by at least one of the authors. The papers
(and presentations) will be discussed in more detail.
 Immediately after the conference, the chairs will take a decision on which
short papers will be promoted to full and communicate it to the authors.
All authors are then required to submit an updated version of their paper
taking into account the discussions at the conference and chairs' feedback.
Papers accepted as full will have to include at least 3 pages of additional
content.

This year, four types of papers can be submitted. Scientific long and short
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=S0FZgwOJ+UGr3OQ1zTj+EeZc6thCO7DFqXiq/VOPG0xIxrudbInpmZLdhE7GpWZv>
papers, case reports

<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=zbaaJDRLBJ+QwnVsO1s2yeZc6thCO+DFqXiq/VOPG0xIxrudbImpmZLdhE7GpWZv>
papers (model cases should be submitted via the models at work

initiative route) and doctoral
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=DC0HDwjiM4eG4tqFTu0ceuZc6thCO/DFqXiq/VOPG0xIxrudbInJmZLdhE7GpWZv>
papers. The subjects of the papers can be finished work or preliminary
work.

**Proceedings**

As in earlier years, the proceedings of EEWC 2022 containing the scientific
papers will be published as post-conference proceedings in Springer's
Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=RnJcWvoPN72qAFwSj445/OZc6thCOxDFqXiq/VOPG0xIxrudbIk5mZLdhE7GpWZv>
(LNBIP).

Case reports, tooling papers, doctoral papers and general submissions
accepted as poster papers will be submitted for publication online in CEUR
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=aD9hEEu5v2yukIT0yckbl+Zc6thCO0DFqXiq/VOPG0xIxrudbInZmZLdhE7GpWZv>
as part of EEWC Forum post-conference proceedings.

The use of post-conference proceedings enables the authors to update their
submissions based on the feedback from reviewers, as well as the
discussions during the conference, which truly underlines the working
conference character of EEWC.

**EEWC Forum**

The EEWC Forum is a place within the Enterprise Engineering Working
Conference (EEWC) for presentation and discussion of new and preliminary
ideas, industry case reports and case studies from practice and tools
related to enterprise engineering. Intended to serve as an interactive
platform, the Forum aims at the presentation of emerging new topics and
controversial positions, as well as demonstration of innovative systems,
tools, applications and reports of application of enterprise engineering
methods and tools. The Forum sessions at the EEWC conference aim to
facilitate the interaction, discussion, and exchange of ideas among
presenters and participants and integrate knowledge of academic and
practitioner perspectives.

**Topics and Submission**

Guidelines, page limits, submission details and relevant topics are
available for scientific long and short
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=S0FZgwOJ+UGr3OQ1zTj+EeZc6thCO7DFqXiq/VOPG0xIxrudbInpmZLdhE7GpWZv>
papers, case reports
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=gbERc9OCADOMh+MlZbYkOuZc6thCO5DFqXiq/VOPG0xIxrudbIkJmZLdhE7GpWZv>
, tooling
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=zbaaJDRLBJ+QwnVsO1s2yeZc6thCO+DFqXiq/VOPG0xIxrudbImpmZLdhE7GpWZv>
papers and doctoral
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=DC0HDwjiM4eG4tqFTu0ceuZc6thCO/DFqXiq/VOPG0xIxrudbInJmZLdhE7GpWZv>
papers. The four types of submissions are described shortly below (for
detailed guidelines for each type of submission, follow the respective
link):

 Scientific papers share innovative research issues and practical
experiences, mixing rigor and relevance, to facilitate profound discussions
on the topics of EEWC.
 Case Reports describe real world cases. These papers typically take a
“practitioner's” perspective, and tend not to use formal scientific
protocols. These papers provide interesting starting points for discussion
and reflection during the conference, typically in the industry
track/sessions.
 Tooling papers present modelling tools that have been or are being
developed in an enterprise engineering environment.
 Doctoral papers present ongoing Phd research work in the dedicated
Doctoral Consortium session of EEWC.

It is necessary that at least one of the authors of accepted papers
physically attends EEWC and presents it.

Papers submitted in the scientific category might be accepted for
presentation and publication as a forum case report or poster paper,
depending on their content, quality, and reviews. Poster papers are
considered to present innovative research work, which is still at a
relatively early stage and do not necessarily include a full-scale
validation. Poster papers will be presented in dedicated sessions of the
EEWC Program.

All papers must follow the Springer LNBIP format and should be restricted
to the page limit, including all text, figures, references and appendices.
The review process is double-blind except for doctoral and tooling papers.
So papers not of these two types must be submitted in PDF format having no
author information. Submissions are made through our Easychair conference
management system
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=jriqNS4FHei294ItxsU/0uZc6thCO4DFqXiq/VOPG0xIxrudbIm5mZLdhE7GpWZv>
. Submitted papers must be unpublished and must not be under review
elsewhere. Information about the Springer LNBIP format can be found at
Springer LNBIP
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?tid=RnJcWvoPN72qAFwSj445/OZc6thCOxDFqXiq/VOPG0xIxrudbIk5mZLdhE7GpWZv>
