General Information

BPM 2009 is the seventh conference in a series that provides the most distinguished specialized forum for researchers and practitioners in business process management (BPM). The conference has a record of attracting innovative research of highest quality related to all aspects of business process management including theory, frameworks, methods, techniques, architectures, and empirical findings. BPM’09 takes place in Ulm in September 2009. General chairs are Peter Dadam and Manfred Reichert.

Traditionally, the BPM conference attracts the outstanding researchers in the field. The BPM solicits original research papers that break new ground in or make significant novel contributions to the field. The BPM conference also aims at bridging the viewpoints of leading research outcomes with practical demands and industrial experience (i.e. in prototypes).

Accordingly, the conference encourages practitioners to share their experience on innovative industrial implementations and applications of business process management methods and techniques, with particular focus on their impact on information technology use or business practice.This applies to the conference and workshop tracks as well as the demonstration session.

Each conference day will be opened by outstanding keynote speakers. Prof. Dr. Dr. hc. mult. August-Wilhelm Scheer will talk about next generation Business Process Management “BPM 3.0”. Prof. Scheer is founder and chairman of the supervisory Board of IDS Scheer AG and imc AG. Furthermore, he is president of the German Federal Association for Information Economy, Telecommunications, and New Media (BITKOM) and vice president of the Bundesverband der Deutschen Industrie e.V. (BDI). The two other keynote speakers are John Hoogland (LL.M.), founder and CEO of Pallas Athena, who will give a talk about “Change in Control” and Prof. Bertram Ludaescher (Ph.D.) from University of California. His keynote is about “Scientific Workflows – Business (Workflows) as Usual”.
