Topics


e-Business Architectures:


E-business architectures leverage Web Technologies to implement mission-critical e-business systems. Still there is a need for design principles, methods, and technologies for describing the structure of e-Business systems, its composition of subsystems, and their relationship with the external environment.

  • Enterprise Architecture Design, Modeling, Analysis, Development
  • Business Collaboration Architecture Design, Modeling, Analysis, Development
  • Enterprise Modeling and Application Integration Services, e.g. Enterprise Service Bus
  • Enterprise Architecture Design Principles
  • Architecture Quality Measurements
  • Legacy System Integration
  • Middleware Integration

Recommender Systems:


Recommender and business intelligence systems supporting both the customer side and the providers side in making better business decision is still a challenging issue.

  • Industrial application of recommendation technologies
  • Consumer search, decision making and consumer buying behavior models
  • Computational advertising
  • Reputation and Trust in recommender systems
  • Persuasion techniques and recommender systems
  • Context-aware recommender systems
  • Recommender systems and social networks
  • Crowdsourcing and collective intelligence
  • Novelty, diversity and serendipity
  • Recommender system user interfaces and conversational approaches
  • Explanations in recommender systems

Semantic representation of e-business and e-commerce information:


Managing knowledge for the coordination of e-business processes through the systematic application of Semantic Web technologies is the focus of semantic e-business. It builds up on Semantic Web technologies, knowledge management and e-business processes. Challenges address the conceptualization how e-business related knowledge is captured, represented, shared, and processed by humans and intelligent software.

  • Languages, tools and methodologies for representing and managing business data
  • Ontological engineering of business applications
  • Linked Open Data
  • Semantic reasoning about business data
  • Search, query, analysis, and integration of business data

This also allows for more effective business process management approaches concerning the design, modeling, execution, monitoring and optimization of business process life cycles.

  • Business/IT Alignment
  • Business Service Analysis, Strategy, Design, Development and Deployment
  • Service Identification, Modeling, and Granularity
  • Service Revenue Models
  • Service Engineering/Development Methods
  • Service-oriented Business Modeling
  • Software as a Service, Service as a Software
  • Business process modeling and analysis
  • SOA for business processes
  • Service-enabled workflow management systems

Agent-based E-Commerce:


Agents are computer systems situated in some environment and capable of autonomous action in order to meet their design objectives. Research on agent-based e-commerce has a vigorous tradition. However, new trends and concerns are emerging.

  • Agent Technology for E-Commerce
  • Agents in B2B and B2C E-Commerce
  • Partnership Formation and Brokering Mechanisms
  • Auctions and Automated Negotiation
  • Interaction Protocols and Mechanism Design
  • Argumentation-based Negotiation
  • Coalition Formation and Teams
  • Contracts and Contracting Issues
  • Electronic Voting and Market-Oriented Programming
  • E-Commerce Systems and Commercial Applications
  • E-Supply Chains and Virtual Organizations

E-Business Case Studies:


In constructive research, new prototypes to conduct e-business have emerged over the last couple of years. Although EC-Web focuses on new research ideas, we also welcome case studies that report on applying recent research results in real world environments, such as:

  • E-Procurement
  • E-Shops
  • E-Tendering, E-Auctions
  • E-Markets
  • E-Payment
  • Cross-enterprise solutions
  • Cross-border issues
  • Mobile e-Business
  • E-commerce and e-business APPification
