Advanced Information Systems Engineering

The CAiSE series of conferences, started in 1989, provides an established - nue in the information systems engineering area for presenting and exchanging results ofdesign-orientedresearchininformationsystems. The 22ndCAiSE c- ference, held in Hammamet, Tunisia, during June 7-11, 2010,continued this t- dition. The theme of CAiSE 2010 was Information Systems Evolution. Modern information systems are the result of the interconnection of systems of many organizations, are running in variable contexts, and require both a lightweight approach to interoperability and the capability to actively react to changing - quirements and failures. In addition, users of information systems are becoming more and more mobile and ubiquitous, requiring the system to adapt to their varyingusagecontextsandgoals. Theevolutionofaninformationsystemshould be a continuous process rather than a single step, and it should be inherently supported by the system itself and the design of the information system should consider evolution as an inherent property of the system. The papers selected for CAiSE 2010 focus on this theme from various perspectives, from requi- ment engineering and conceptual modeling, to process and services modeling and analysis, to themes such as security, quality, management and applications in information systems. The ?rst two days consisted of pre-conference workshops and events on bu- ness process modeling, modeling methods, requirements engineering, organi- tional modeling, interoperability and cooperation, ontologies, governance, em- rical research in process-oriented systems, and domain engineering.
