SUPER Project
SUPER is financed from the Europen Union 6th Framework Programme, within
Information Society Technologies (IST) priority, under contract no.
FP6-026850. More on the project can be found [here]
The major objective of SUPER is to raise Business Process Management
(BPM) to the business level, where it belongs, from the IT level where
it mostly resides now. This objective requires that BPM is accessible at
the level of semantics of business experts.
Semantic Web and, in particular, Semantic Web Services (SWS) technology
offer the promise of integrating applications at the semantic level. By
combining SWS and BPM, and developing one consolidated technology SUPER
will create horizontal ontologies which describe business processes and
vertical telecommunications oriented ontologies to support
domain-specific annotation.
Therefore, this project aims at providing a semantic-based and
context-aware framework, based on Semantic Web Services technology that
acquires, organises, shares and uses the knowledge embedded in business
processes within existing IT systems and software, and within employees'
heads, in order to make companies more adaptive.
Call for papers
It is our pleasure to invite you to submit your work to BIS 2008
conference SUPER PhD Programme session. It will take place in May 2008
in Innsbruck and will be organized by Poznan University of Economics as
part of the dissemination activities within SUPER project.
The goal of the SUPER Phd Programme session is to create an opportunity
for doctoral students to test their research ideas, present their
current progress and future plans, and most of all to receive
constructive criticism and insights related to their future work and
career perspectives. PhD Programme Mentors will be assigned to each
student to provide individual feedback and advice on the paper, the
focus of the work and further developments.
The SUPER PhD Programme Session of BIS 2008 solicits submission of PhD
research papers dealing with various issues important from the
perspective of the SUPER project.
Who can participate
Session is open to all students. We particularly invite students not
involved in SUPER PhD programme
([here]) but interested in the
topics related to the Semantic Business Process Management. Their
external position with relation to the project may bring fresh ideas and
point the places of improvement in SUPER project. The only restriction
is that papers should be related to the topics of SUPER project. For the
topics please refer to the description of the project
