Visualisation For Semantic Information Systems

Dr. Hans-Georg Fill presents an innovative framework for visualisation based on an analysis of current visualisation approaches in business informatics. It encompasses the creation of visualisations both from a technical as well as a contextual point of view. The author in particular elaborates the concepts of visual objects, ontological visualisation patterns, and semantic visualization.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 30th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering, CAiSE 2018, held in Talinn, Estonia, in June 2018. The 37 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 175 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on Process Execution, User-Oriented IS Development, Social Computing and Personalization, the Cloud and Data Services, Process Discovery, Decisions and the Blockchain, Process and Multi-level Modelling, Data Management and Visualization, Big Data and Intelligence, Data Modelling and Mining, Quality Requirements and Software, and Tutorials.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of UNISCON 2008 held in Klagenfurt, Austria, during April 22-25, 2008. UNISCON combines the ECOMO workshop series and the ISTA conference series. The 19 papers dealing with conceptual modeling, model-driven software development and information systems applications represent a 30% selection from the original set of submissions. They are completed by two keynote lectures and 35 papers from internationally renowned researchers, invited in honor of Heinrich C. Mayr, whose 60th birthday is also celebrated at this event, that he originally created.

This book constitutes the proceedings of two events held at the CAiSE conference and relating to the areas of enterprise, business process and information systems modeling: The 20th International Conference on Business Process Modeling, Development and Support, BPMDS 2019, and the 24th International Conference on Evaluation and Modeling Methods for Systems Analysis and Development, EMMSAD 2019. The conferences took place in Rome, Italy, in June 2019. The 7 full and 2 short papers accepted for BPMDS were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 20 submissions; for EMMSAD 15 full papers were accepted from 38 submissions. The papers were organized in topical sections named as follows: BPMDS: large and complex business process modeling and development; execution and understandability of declarative process models; novel approaches in enterprise modeling; transformative business process modeling, development, and support. EMMSAD: foundations of modeling and method engineering; enterprise process and capability modeling; information systems and requirements modeling; domain-specific and ontology modeling; and evaluation of modeling approaches.

The first book that deals specifically with visualization of the XML-based Web. It presents the state-of-the-art research in this area and focuses on key topics such as: visualization of semantic and structural information and metadata; exploring and querying XML documents using interactive multimedia interfaces; topic map visualization; visual modelling of XML/RDF ontologies and schemas; rendering and viewing of XML documents; SVG/X3D: new visualization techniques for the semantic web; and methods used to construct high quality metadata/metadata taxonomies. Most of the techniques and methods discussed here can be applied now, making this book essential reading for SML and Web developers as well as visualization researchers.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of ten international workshops held in London, UK, in conjunction with the 23rd International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering, CAiSE 2011, in June 2011. The 59 revised papers were carefully selected from 139 submissions. The ten workshops included Business/IT Alignment and Interoperability (BUSITAL), Conceptualization of Modelling Methods (CMM), Domain Specific Engineering (DsE@CAiSE), Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRCIS), Integration of IS Engineering Tools (INISET), System and Software Architectures (IWSSA), Ontology-Driven Information Systems Engineering (ODISE), Ontology, Models, Conceptualization and Epistemology in Social, Artificial and Natural Systems (ONTOSE), Semantic Search (SSW), and Information Systems Security Engineering (WISSE).

This book contains substantially extended and revised versions of the best papers from the 14th International Conference on Enterprise Information Systems (ICEIS 2012), held in Wroclaw, Poland, in June/July 2012. The 25 full and 3 invited papers included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 299 submissions. They reflect state-of-the-art research work focusing mainly on real-world applications and highlighting the benefits of information systems and technology for industry and services, thus connecting academia with the world of real enterprises. The topics covered are: databases and information systems integration; artificial intelligence and decision support systems; information systems analysis and specification; software agents and internet computing; human-computer interaction; and enterprise architecture.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of seven international workshops held in Stockholm, Sweden, in conjunction with the 27th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering, CAiSE 2015, in June 2015. The 38 full and nine short papers were carefully selected from 107 submissions. The workshops were the Second International Workshop on Advances in Services Design based on the Notion of Capability (ASDENCA), the Third International Workshop on Cognitive Aspects of Information Systems Engineering (COGNISE), the First International Workshop on Digital Business Innovation and the Future Enterprise Information Systems Engineering (DiFenSE), the First International Workshop on Enterprise Modeling (EM), the First Workshop on the Role of Real-World Objects in Business Process Management Systems (RW-BPMS), the 10th International Workshop on Trends in Enterprise Architecture Research (TEAR), and the 5th International Workshop on Information Systems Security Engineering (WISSE).
