CMS 2015 - 6th Workshop on Conceptual Modelling of Services

The 6th International Workshop on Conceptual Modelling of Services (CMS 2015) co-located
with the 34th International Conference on Conceptual Modeling (ER 2015) will be
held in Stockholm Sweden October 19-22, 2015.

The CMS workshop aims to bring together researchers in the areas of services computing,
services science, business process modelling, and conceptual modelling. The emphasis of this
workshop is on the intersection of the rather new, fast growing services computing and services
science paradigms with the well-established conceptual modelling area.


Typical topics of research papers include:
------------------------------------------
- Conceptual models for integrated design and delivery of value bundles (i.e. services and physical goods);
- Formal methods for services computing / cloud computing / services science;
- Foundation of business process modelling, integration and management;
- Modelling languages / techniques for services;
- Modelling of semantic services;
- Modelling support for service integration - within a single domain; across multiple domains; with legacy applications; etc.
- Personalisation of services;
- Quality of service modelling;
- Reference models for service-oriented systems;
- Semantics of service-oriented systems;
- Service composition planning and verification;
- Service computing process modelling, transformation and integration;
- Service development process modelling;
- Service ontologies and ontology alignment;
- Cloud SLAs, business models and pricing policies;
- User interfaces for assisted service modelling; and
- Workflow modelling.
