[This call has been sent to several distribution lists, our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this announcement. Please forward this announcement to anybody who you think may be interested.] *** CALL FOR POSTERS AND PARTICIPATION *** Workshop on Engineering e-Business Systems 10-12 July 2002 University of Kent at Canterbury, UK http://www.cs.ukc.ac.uk/eebw The workshop aims to consider the issues surrounding the development and adaptation of e-Business systems. It features a mixture of experienced industrial and academic speakers, and provides plenty of opportunity for discussion and interaction amongst participants. Following the success of last year's event, this workshop is being run for the second time. This year includes tutorial and poster sessions, in addition to the strong programme of invited speakers. Our goal is that you should leave the workshop with better knowledge of what the issues are, what people are doing today, what approaches are being tried by researchers, and who are the key players. Speakers include: Ross Anderson (University of Cambridge) Derek Coleman (RosettaNet & HP) Paul Dyson Wolfgang Emmerich (University College London) Anton (Tony) Fricko (IBM jStart Emerging Technologies) Peter Kawalek (Manchester Business School) Mark Little (HP Arjuna Labs) Pete Rivett (Adaptive Ltd) Santosh Shrivastava (University of Newcastle upon Tyne) Alan Cameron Wills (TriReme International Ltd.) Andrew Watson (Object Management Group) Roel Wieringa (University of Twente) This years poster session provides an opportunity to share innovative ideas and new applications of technology. Posters are an excellent forum for authors to present their current work, which can either be practitioner's reports, or research reports that may be too preliminary for a full technical paper. Posters from post-graduate students are particularly welcomed, and there will be a prize for the best student poster. Who should attend? Practitioners and academics trying to find answers to these questions: What are the current, and likely long-term, problems faced by industry and business in this area? What solutions have researchers been proposing, and how appropriate are they? Detailed information of the workshop, including a preliminary programme of talks and tutorials, a call for posters, and registration and accommodation details is available at: http://www.cs.ukc.ac.uk/eebw Further information contact: Stuart Kent (+44 1227 827753) or Rogerio de Lemos (+44 1227 823628), or send an e-mail to [log in to unmask] The workshop is being organised by the Software and Systems Engineering Group, in the Computing Laboratory at the University of Kent at Canterbury, UK.
