{Apologies for multiple
copies} CALL FOR PAPERS First International Workshop
on Business Services Networks (BSN 2005) ===================================================================== http://elab.njit.edu/bsn.html
Held in conjunction with
IEEE International Conference on e-Technology, e-Commerce and e-Service
(EEE-05) 29 March, 2005 - http://www.comp.hkbu.edu.hk/~eee05 Sponsored by: Faculty of Business and
Information Technology University of Ontario
Institute of Technology (UOIT), e-Business Laboratory (eLab) New Jersey Institute of
Technology (NJIT), Abstract: Business Services Networks
(BSN's) are one of the most promising approaches to implement the Service
Oriented Architecture (SOA). They function as inter-enterprise e-Markets where
software components can be delivered and consumed based on Utility Computing,
On Demand, or Pay-Per-Use business models. A typical BSN consists of networked
grid computing infrastructures where Web Services can be securely published,
reused, and invoked using the Business Process Execution Language for Web
Services (BPEL). They extend the Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) of each market
participant by adding an e-Service Commerce layer, which provides
industrial-strength transaction management and Service Level Agreements (SLA).
For software vendors, BSN's represent a fast track to convert their existing
applications to the SOA. For business adopters, these networks provide rich
repositories of trusted software components, application services, and business
processes. Overall, all parties to a BSN can leverage their IT assets in
infinite ways, and generate new streams of revenues and cost savings that would
not be possible without such an e-Market. Scope: We invite papers that
address both business and technical issues of BSN's from various perspectives,
including BSN operators, software vendors, business adopters, developers, and
end-users. We encourage contributions from both academia and industry. Topics
of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: 1. BSN Operators: 1.a. Business Models and
Architectures 1.b. Spin-Offs from
Outsourcing Providers 1.c. 1.d. Industry-Specific B2B
