MESSAGE FROM THE GENERAL CHAIR
Welcome to the 13th International Conference on Business Process
Management (BPM 2015) in Innsbruck, Austria!
It has been a great honor for me to serve as General
Chair of this prestigious conference and to host BPM
2015 in Innsbruck. BPM brings together researchers
and practitioners that are passionate about processes
and aims to provide a highly effective platform to learn,
exchange ideas and move the field forward.
The successful organization of such an event would not have been possible without
the help of many people. First I would like to thank the BPM Steering Committee for
selecting Innsbruck as the host city of BPM 2015 and their ongoing support to organize
the conference.
I am deeply grateful to the local organization team in Innsbruck, namely Cornelia
Haisjackl and Ilona Zaremba with the assistance of Andrea Burattin, Tizian Müller, Manuel
Neurauter, Jakob Pinggera, Boris Puschitz, Thomas Schrettl, Gabriele Strasser, Cornelia
Vidovic, and Stefan Zugal. In addition, I would like to thank the University of Innsbruck
for hosting the conference and its “Veranstaltungs-Service” (Event Service) and “Büro für
Öffentlichkeitsarbeit” (PR Bureau) for their generous support. Moreover, I would like to
express my appreciation for the help of the student volunteers from all over the world
who supported the local organization.
I would like to express my gratitude to the program chairs Hamid Motahari, Jan Recker
and Matthias Weidlich, the industry track chairs Jan Mendling and Jan vom Brocke, the
workshop chairs Manfred Reichert and Hajo Reijers, the tutorial and panel chairs Jakob
Pinggera and Pnina Soffer, the demo chairs Florian Daniel and Stefan Zugal, the doctoral
consortium chairs Stefanie Rinderle-Ma and Mathias Weske, the publicity chairs Henrik
Leopold, Lucinea Thom, Lijie Wen, Michael zur Muehlen and Amin Beheshti, and the web
and social media chairs Cornelia Haisjackl, Jakob Pinggera and Stefan Zugal, who did a
tremendous job in shaping the different parts of the program and promoting the event.
I would also like to thank our platinum sponsor Bizagi and all the other conference
sponsors: Prologics (gold), Minitlabs (gold), IBM Research (gold, doctoral consortium
sponsor), Signavio (silver), Exformatics (bronze), SAP (bronze), Cluster IT Tirol (local
industry partnership sponsor), University of Liechtenstein (BPM Innovation Award
sponsor), Gesellschaft für Prozessmanagement (in-cooperation sponsor), Austrian Airlines
(official carrier), as well as the City of Innsbruck. Without their support the excellence and
success of BPM 2015 would not have been possible.
I would also like to extend my appreciation to all workshop organizers, reviewers,
authors and speakers without whom it would not have been possible to shape such an
outstanding technical program. Finally, I would like to thank all of you coming from the
five continents for making the trip to Innsbruck.
I am convinced that all of us will enjoy BPM 2015 as a great experience. I wish you
stimulating discussions with colleagues, many new ideas for future work, the opportunity
to make a lot of contacts and meet old and new friends. I also hope that you will find
some time around the conference to enjoy the spectacular area around Innsbruck with its
natural beauty and cultural richness and to taste some of our delicious local specialties.

“NoBPM: Supporting Interaction-Oriented Automation via Normative Specifications of Processes”
Tuesday, 1 September 2015, 9:20 – 10:30, Aula
Abstract
Business and business processes are centuries old social constructions that underlie human
society. Business process management or BPM is a modern construction in information
technology. The objective of BPM is to support business processes: it has partially
succeeded, especially in regards to improving the efficiency of process enactment.
However, BPM embodies a number of restrictive assumptions treated as dogma in
current research that limit its applicability. First, BPM is almost entirely characterized
in operational and usually procedural, though occasionally declarative (temporal logic)
terms. The underlying modeling primitives are little different from the primitives of any
programming language. Second, BPM is usually treated from a central viewpoint even
when physically distributed. That is, BPM’s focus is on technical rather than business
aspects. In essence, BPM does not so much support a business process as redefine it in
operational terms. That is, it omits a standard of correctness but provides a means to an
implementation. Although this formulation has been effective in IT practice, I claim that
it has run its course.
I argue that BPM is inadequate for dealing with modern challenges such as processes that
incorporate humans and organizations as well as diverse services and devices that reflect
the autonomy of humans and organizations. If we rethink of business processes from
first principles, we would understand them as social constructions just as they are. We
would establish new computational foundations for business processes that place them
as elements of a sociotechnical system; specify them via normative (not operational)
standards of correctness independent of implementation; describe how to verify various
correctness properties of specifications and evaluate implementations with respect to
specifications; and enact and govern them in a decentralized manner. I term this latter
perspective NoBPM.
NoBPM brings forth a number of major research questions. What does it mean for a
normative process specification to be sound? How can we learn such specifications from
observations of humans and organizations and their services and devices? What does it
mean for an autonomous participant to comply with a normative process specification?
How can we define and ensure a suitable notion of alignment of the various parties
involved in a business process?
I describe recent and ongoing research that hints at how we may approach the above
questions. I offer some suggestions for how the considerable research strength of the BPM
community can be directed toward these questions and invite researchers to participate
in NoBPM.

CEO, Bizagi
“Adaptability, Architecture & CX: The Bizagi Way”
Wednesday, 2 September 2015, 9:00 – 10:30, Aula
Abstract
Business Process Management Systems (BPMS) have put processes at the center of the
universe. This focus has enabled the creation of formal practice and theories from which IT
solutions have benefited enormously during the last 15 years.
By delivering the right information to the right person at the right time, information
workers have been empowered by systems that truly understand what they intend to
do. And by doing this in a model-driven way whereby the technology adapts itself to
this business model – and not the other way around – these new systems have enabled
continuous improvement and adaptability: capabilities indispensable to achieving muchdesired business agility. Yet despite this, the user experience is often counter-intuitive to
the business objectives. Knowledge workers may find themselves asking questions such as:
n Do I really know which process I want to start when I enter my BPMS application?
n Do I need to carry out some analysis before I start?
n Are all process combinations known to me beforehand?
n How smart is the solution at suggesting processes that actually make sense?
Furthermore, what if we wanted to create modern applications that resemble sophisticated
web sites such as amazon.com or hotels.com? Could we build them with a BPMS? If not… why
not? What’s missing? Customer experience (CX) is quickly becoming the hottest buzzword
in business and industry. How is CX related to BPMS? What makes a great CX anyway?
In this talk, we will explore how by marrying process and data and extending current
process technologies with few new concepts we can create fundamentally new, contextsensitive applications that empower knowledge workers like never before, and redefine
the boundaries of what a BPMS can do.
Gustavo Gómez is an entrepreneur who loves solving problems. Equipped with a degree
in Computer Science, Gustavo pursued a career in software engineering in Europe and
Colombia. In 1989 he founded Bizagi, short for business agility. Despite running a global
business, Gustavo’s passion for delighting customers hasn’t changed. Those around him
admire his accessibility and hands-on approach, demonstrated through his daily customer
interactions, involvement with product improvements, and strategic thinking. Gustavo
remains the embodiment of Bizagi’s values of integrity, honesty, and commitment to
exceptional service.

Professor, The University of Tartu
“From Models to Data and Back: The Journey of the
BPM Discipline and the Tangled Road to BPM 2020”
Thursday, 3 September 2015, 9:00 – 10:30, Aula
Abstract
It has been over two decades since the first research articles on Business Process Management
(BPM) saw light. Much ink has been spilled meantime to build up a discipline out of what
is essentially a vision of how work in organizations can be effectively conceptualized and
analyzed for the purpose of performance improvement. There is by now a relatively wellestablished body of methods and tools to instill “process thinking” in organizations and to
manage business processes throughout their lifecycle.
A considerable subset of these methods and tools rely on business process models, be it
for understanding processes, for preserving and communicating process knowledge, for
analyzing, redesigning or automating processes, and even for monitoring them. It is thus
not surprising that a lot of research and development in the field of BPM has concentrated
on modeling languages, tools and methods, to the extent that the early evolution of the
discipline is sometimes associated with the development of modeling languages. Along
this line, the discipline has gone through a long convergence and standardization process,
starting from proprietary notations such as Event-driven Process Chains (EPCs), moving
on to numerous standardization attempts leading to the broad adoption of the Business
Process Model and Notation (BPMN).
The overwhelming volume of these developments calls for two questions: What have we
fundamentally learned from the development of modeling languages, tools and methods?
And perhaps more importantly, what have we so far failed to fully comprehend?
Another significant subset of methods and tools in the BPM field rely on data, specifically
data collected during the execution of business processes. As processes become increasingly
digitized, data is moving from being a side-product of the execution of business processes,
to becoming a central asset that can be leveraged across all phases of the business process
lifecycle. This prospect has fueled a stream of research on business process data analytics.
Along this line, we have seen emerge a number of methods and tools to summarize process
execution data, to generate or enhance models using these data, and to understand how
the recorded execution of a business process diverges from its modeled behavior.
Again, the overwhelming volume of developments in this field calls for two questions:
What have we fundamentally learned from the development of process mining tools and
methods? And perhaps more importantly, what have we so far failed to fully comprehend?
This talk will argue that answers to the above questions can be summarized with two
concepts: variation and decisions, be them offline (e.g. design-time) or online (runtime).
Many if not most developments and open challenges in the field boil down to
comprehending, analyzing, executing and monitoring business processes with inherently
high levels of variation and with complex decisions. Indeed, the discipline has learned to
analyze, optimize and automate routine work that involves well-structured data objects
and simple choices, even on relatively large scales. But we are yet to learn how to manage
large-scale variation, unstructuredness and complex decision spaces. The emergence of the
Internet of Things and cyber-physical systems is likely to only heighten the challenge, as in
a world where the number of connections increases exponentially, so does the complexity
of options and variations that ought to be accounted for. The coming of age of automated
decision making, the maturation of natural language processing as well as advances in
heterogeneous data analytics, create significant opportunities to address the challenges
that lie ahead for the BPM discipline.
Marlon Dumas is Professor of Software Engineering at University of Tartu, Estonia. Prior
to this appointment he was faculty member at Queensland University of Technology and
visiting researcher at SAP Research, Australia. His research interests span across the fields of

Abstract
n The BPM Conference is a highly prestigious venue, where many researchers aspire to present
their work. It is also a competitive conference, with acceptance levels that have varied between
10% and 20% over the various editions. As proposers of this tutorial, we have been involved
in the conference in many different roles: as authors of accepted papers, chairs, and reviewers.
Our motivation behind this tutorial is to share knowledge that may enable a wider pool of
researchers to get their work accepted for the BPM conference. To this end, we will devote
attention to the various elements of a conference paper and provide what we believe to be
“good practices” for each of these. While adhering to these provides no guarantee for success,
these insights may at least be the ingredients for turning a submission into a stronger one.
Abstract
n The last ten years has seen a surge of interest in design science research in information
systems, and of empirical research in software engineering. In this talk I present a
framework for design science in information and software systems engineering that
shows how in design science research, we iterate over designing new artifacts and
empirically investigating these artifacts. To be relevant, the artifacts should potentially
contribute to organizational goals, and to be empirically sound, research to validate new
artifacts should provide insight into the effects of using these artifacts in an organizational
context. The logic of both of these activities, design and empirical research, is that of
rational decision making. I show how this logic can be used to structure our technical
and empirical research goals and questions, as well as how to structure reports about
our technical or empirical research. This gives us checklists for the design cycle used in
technical research and for the empirical cycle used in empirical research. Finally, I will
discuss in more detail what the role of theories in design science research is, and how we
use theory to state research questions and to generalize the research results.

Tutorial 3: “Social BPM – More than Software“
Abstract
Wednesday, 2 September, 14:00 – 15:30
Lecture Hall 2 (ground floor)
Background
n The term “social BPM“ is defined as the use of web 2.0 and social networks in the field of
BPM. In organisations process management often comes along with change management
or arises in the course of reorganizations (mergers, outsourcing, and consolidation). For the
implementation of change management process teams are set up. Their business is to define
and map processes often supported by according software tools. Process team members
and everybody significantly involved in the process are confronted with the development of
common procedures, process diagrams, targets, performance indicators – only to name a
few. For the social aspect in the process team this means discussion of different perception,
handling of disputes, resistance and so on. Social BPM should therefore (also) be recognised
and implemented as the examination of interpersonal relationships in process teams. The
co-operation (or ability to co-operate) of people forms the center of attention.

Core feature
n In my tutorial “social BPM“ the process team, its management and working ability
will be examined. The interpersonal relationships and its integration into the process
work will be moved in the centre of attention and will be physically experienced. I will
illustrate how group dynamical aspects and physical aspects (derived from the method
„bioenergetic analysis“) can contribute to a good performance of the process team. At the
beginning I will place a few hypotheses as a “warm up“ and “join in“ and to encourage
for active participation in the group work. Following I will shortly present my theoretical
framework of social BPM derived from the field of group dynamics and bioenergetic
analysis. Subsequently the participants themselves will put – with a predefined task and
in working groups – the theory presented into test and practice. Finally the experiences
made will be discussed and conclusions will be made.
Bioenergetic analysis – brief description
n Bioenergetic analysis as a method was founded by Alexander Lowen. Its foundation are
the models of resistance and transference from the depth psychology (Sigmund Freud).
Physical phenomenons (Wilhelm Reich) such as attitude, muscular tension, emotional
expression, breathing patterns are divided in five character types. Waldefried Pechtl
adapted the method for its implementation in organisations. The character types offer the
ability to consider the different attitudes and behavioural patterns of individual, groups and
organisations as a stabilising factor but also to gain energy for development and change
through working on conflicts and resistance.

Abstract
n Business processes and business process models incorporate lots of decisions. Business
decisions are important, but are often hidden in process flows or activities. It is not
considered good practice to model the detailed decision paths in the business process
model, because hardcoding decision flows in processes leads to complex and inflexible
process models. Separating decisions from the process simplifies the process model
(separation of concerns).
In analogy with the Business Process Modeling & Notation Standard (BPMN), a Decision
Model & Notation standard (DMN) is developed by OMG. Decision modeling describes
business decisions to be made, with their interrelationships and requirements, together
with the detailed decision logic used to make the decision. One of the common forms of
decision modelling is a structure of decision tables, describing the premises and resulting
outcomes of a specific decision situation. This tutorial introduces DMN and describes the
relations between business decisions, decision tables, and business processes.

PANEL
Towards a Manifesto for Agile BPM?
Tuesday, 1 September, 14:00 - 15:30
Lecture Hall 2 (ground floor)
Moderator
Udo Kannengiesser, Metasonic GmbH, Germany
n Udo Kannengiesser is a researcher in BPM with over 15 years of experience in modelling
dynamic processes and developing agile process management systems. He has published
more than 60 research papers in the fields of business process management, information
systems, design science and artificial intelligence. His work on the FBS process framework
of design has become a major reference for design researchers worldwide and has been
applied in various design disciplines including business process design. He obtained
his PhD from the University of Sydney (Australia) and worked as a research scientist at
National ICT Australia. He is currently a senior research engineer at Metasonic GmbH
(Germany), where he leads several research projects related to agile BPM.
Abstract
n Many businesses face new challenges in managing their business processes as
customer demands get more specialized, innovations emerge more frequently, and
business environments become more volatile. Leading market analysts proclaim that in
many of today’s business processes exceptions are the rule. Effectively and swiftly reacting
to these exceptions is seen as vital for competitive advantage. The notion of agile BPM is
often used for describing this ability. Individual aspects of agile BPM have been addressed
in a number of recent BPM workshops, conference tracks and special journal issues,
devoted to related topics such as semi-structured and evolutionary business processes,
adaptive case management, human-centric aspects, social software, and design thinking.
However, despite the wealth of research outcomes in the separate areas there is still no
unified definition or foundation for agile BPM.
This fragmentation of research in agile BPM is similar to the situation in software
engineering research in the late 1990s, when a number of agile methods were developed
independently that all broke with the traditional “waterfall” paradigm of software
development. These methods were eventually given a unified conceptual platform with
the formulation of a “manifesto for agile software development” in 2001, which defined
the common values and principles underlying the different methods. The manifesto gave
a considerable boost to agile software development and its adoption in practice.
Is it possible to benefit from these experiences and formulate a similar manifesto for
agile BPM to unify its separate research streams? The panel session will investigate this
question using the expertise of five panelists:
n Leon J. Osterweil (University of Massachusetts Amherst, USA) – Computer science
luminary and expert in software processes including agile methods
n Rick Hull (IBM Research, USA) – Senior member of the BPM research community &
principal developer of the data-centric BPM approach
n Ilia Bider (Department of Computer and Systems Sciences (DSV), Stockholm University,
Sweden) – Business analyst and researcher in agile BPM
n Frank Lorbacher (Detecon International GmbH, Germany) – Business process consultant
specialised in agile BPM applications
n Albert Fleischmann (Johannes Kepler University Linz, Austria) – Researcher in
stakeholder-oriented, agile approaches to BPM
Specifically, the panelists will discuss the following issues with the audience:
n What does agility mean in the BPM domain?
n How relevant is agile BPM in practice? Where is it useful?
n Does disruptive business innovation require agile BPM approaches?
n What are the common values and principles of agile BPM approaches?
n What attributes are required for methods and tools to support agile BPM?
n How do current methods and tools perform with respect to these attributes?
n What are the consequences for future BPM research and development?

to the high mountain terrain of the Nordkette in just twenty minutes. As the reception will
take place 1.905m above sea level, appropriate clothing is required: Please bring a warm
jacket (it can be up to 15°C cooler than in the valley) and good shoes (no sandals, flipflops or high-heels)! The Nordkettenbahnen will bring us back to the conference venue
(latest arrival at 23:30).
Author: TVB Hall-Wattens
Busses will bring us to the historic city center of Hall, where participants can choose one
of two tours:
n Tour 1: “At the beginning there was salt” – take the Hall city tour
n Tour 2: “Money rules the world” – visit Burg Hasegg and the mint
The tours will start at 18:30. After one hour, all groups meet at the Kurhaus, Thurnfeldgasse
1, Hall in Tirol, for the conference dinner (buffet style). During the dinner, awards will be
announced. Busses will bring us back to the conference venue (latest arrival at 23:30).

SIGHTSEEING
SPONSORS
Anyone who visits the Tyrolean Capital, Innsbruck, will immediately notice the close
coexistence of culture and nature. Located on Europe’s most important transport lines
between North and South, East and West and nestled in the mountains, the city was
and still is a place of meeting, of cultural exchange, trade, science, and – above all more
recently – of sport.
This union is visible all around, even in the middle of the historic city center with its artistic
buildings, museums and churches: the view down the splendid Maria Theresien street to
the medieval old town with the majestic Nordkette mountain chain providing a stunning
backdrop.
If you stroll through the center you learn a lot about the history of the pretty old
town: Habsburg Emperor Maximilian I (1459-1519), in particular, shaped the image of
Innsbruck at the transition from medieval to Renaissance and made the city the center of
his empire, which stretched from Spain and Burgundy to Hungary. He was responsible for
the building of Innsbruck’s symbols, the Golden Roof and the Zeughaus.
New is the funicular railway that goes up to Hungerburg, with a stop at the Alpine Zoo.
The stations of this facility with their organic shapes designed by Zaha Hadid, architect of
the Bergisel ski jump, recall the constant
flow of ice and glaciers. At Hungerburg
you can board the Nordkettenbahn cable
car to continue up to Seegrube (1,905 m)
and Hafelekar (2,330m.) We recommend
a visit of these locations:

Signavio
Signavio provides a professional software for modeling and analyzing business processes.
The company runs local representations in Berlin, Germany, Singapore and Sunnyvale, CA,
USA. From an easy start with BPM to complex BPM initiatives – Signavio is first choice.
The idea of Signavio
Many employees are rarely faced with the topic of business process management. Though,
these employees as well as customers or business partners are particularly important for
improving business processes. Thus, those people have to be involved in process design right
from the start – without huge training efforts. To achieve a high level of engagement and
acceptance among the employees, an intuitive and collaborative BPM tool is one of the key
drivers to success. While working on the Oryx-Project at Hasso-Plattner-Institute, Potsdam,
Germany we obtained a deep appreciation and understanding of the advantages of a webbased, collaborative BPM tool. Parts of the Oryx-technology and concepts developed at the
Institute are today incorporated within the Signavio Process Editor.
