Follow-up the success of the first edition of the ENEI’05 workshop (http://www.loria.fr/~nacer/BPM-ENEI05/ENEI-CfP.html) this second edition addresses computer-supported integration and interoperability of enterprise applications and software. Indeed, enterprises are provided with collections of heterogeneous applications and software tools that were nor designed nor developed  to favour their interaction and their cooperation. The problem is more crucial when one considers networked enterprises and enterprise expansion (through, for instance, alliances or merging). Moreover, interoperability within an enterprise and between enterprises is not limited to the only data interoperability but it should consider additional levels like applications, business models, process models, enterprise models, and their supporting systems (when these are available).  One of the focus of this workshop edition is semantic-based solutions and enabling technology for enterprise and networked enterprises interoperability.

Workshop Objectives

The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners to present, discuss and evaluate the variety of practices, novel methods, automated support, architectures and technologies that may improve the ability of an enterprise ``as a whole'' to easily, seamlessly, correctly and safely render its existing (as well as its coming) applications and software communicate and cooperate.

Call for papers

Full papers, experience reports as well as position papers are sought on the list of   topics below. All the submissions will be reviewed by at least two members of the international programme committee.
