EOMAS is a flagship annual event of the Association for Information Systems Special Interest Group on Modeling And Simulation (SIGMAS).

In modern business process management, systems engineering, IT application development, IS design, and almost any complex situations, modeling and simulation (M&S) play a significant role.

Traditionally, modeling and simulation have been endorsed as instruments to observe dynamic behavior of systems, measure IT impacts on organizations, and outcomes of changes. In the current context of open-source software development, service-oriented architectures (SOAs) and business process outsourcing (BPO), modeling and simulation assume even more prominence in assessing business process management effectiveness, alignment between business process models and corresponding SOAs, and alignment between the client and vendor business strategies in a BPO contract using embedded simulation in enterprise and organizational models.

The main focus of EOMAS is on the role, importance, and application of modeling and simulation within the extended organizational and enterprise context. This context implies that systems and software applications are designed to enable certain business processes, and to facilitate interaction of the actors, the system, and the environment. Thus, application of modeling and simulation in the organizational and enterprise context involve a number of socio-technical aspects (Information Systems (IS), Enterprise Information Systems (EIS), Software Systems, and Business Systems, Business Processes, Human Interaction, etc.).

This workshop is aimed to become a major outlet and networking opportunity for researchers, practitioners, and educators interested in the theory and application of modeling and simulation within the enterprise and organizational context.
