Process Management (PM) is an evolving discipline integrating computer science, operations research, and data science (e.g., process mining). The rise of AI and Generative AI (GenAI) is driving a new wave of AI-augmented BPM systems (ABPMS), making process management more autonomous, adaptive, intelligent, and optimized. These AI-powered, trustworthy, and process-aware systems continuously analyze and act on data within constraints to enhance processes. Advances in domain expertise integration and Artificial Expert Intelligence (AEI) within Agentic AI infrastructures present both challenges and opportunities. This workshop unites researchers, practitioners, and students interested in AI-PM synergy to collaborate and present original work.
Submission Guidelines
Submissions must be written in English, prepared using the new CEUR-ART 1-column style, formatted in PDF, and submitted through EasyChair. An Overleaf template for LaTeX users is available here. Alternatively, you can download an offline version with the style files for both LaTeX and MS-Word.
There are two submission formats:
- Regular papers (max 12 pages, incl. references): Must be citable and unpublished.
- Short papers (2-4 pages, incl. references): Can present new ideas, systems, preliminary results, or overviews of accepted/submitted papers (with venue and status clearly stated).
Accepted papers must be presented at the conference, with at least one author attending in person. Multiple submissions to other ECAI workshops are prohibited. Papers undergo single-blind review by 2-3 reviewers, with author names visible.
