Welcome to the international workshop on Blockchain for Process and information science.
Nowadays, in an interconnected society, the increasing need for coordination among different organizations requires innovative solutions built upon trustworthy systems. To achieve such an effective digital transformation, organisations need to bridge the gap between business, information, processes and technologies. This problem has been tackled by research on process and information science.
Information science is an integrated set of components to collect, manipulate, classify, store, and process data to produce information, knowledge, and digital solutions.
In such a context, Blockchain can bring huge advantages by guaranteeing the integrity and immutability of data without relying on a central entity, permitting a tamper-proof execution of contractual obligations among the involved organizations. However, recent challenges should be addressed, especially in supporting multiple blockchain platforms and related smart contracts, breaking the technological barriers for enterprises.
The primary objective of B4PIS workshop aims to investigate the potential of blockchain technology within the fields of process and information science. This investigation seeks to address and overcome current technological challenges, promoting innovative approaches to the design and implementation of blockchain-based information systems and enterprise applications, as well as their broader societal impact.
The workshop accepts research papers presenting conceptual, technical, application-oriented and case-study contributions. The themes of this workshop include but are not limited to:
Papers must be original, unpublished and submitted electronically in PDF format P
Contributions must be written in English and prepared using Springer LNBIP style.
