Model-driven Organizational and Business Agility (MOBA) 2022

Based on the 15-years successful history of EOMAS editions, the 1st MOBA Workshop in 2021 and its cooperation with CAiSE the MOBA Workshop-2022 maintains its identity (the modelling aspect), reshaping the focus and research methods on organizational and business agility.

A generic notion of agility as a capability to rapidly response to changes and to reduce uncertainty by an increment-based way, became critically important for all stages of the life cycle of modern IT systems. Although methodological principles and practical tools of agility were adopted in practice of multiple organizations for improving their services and incremental design of better products, there is ever growing challenges that need scientific inquiry, research, and rigorous solutions.

Addressing such challenges MOBA workshop aims at growing a multi-disciplinary community of researchers and practitioners, which will consolidate their efforts in detecting, modeling, improving and disseminating best agility practices and theories. Different agility phenomena will be studied from a systemic viewpoint, distinguishing endogenous agility inside an organization and the exogenous one as business connections with external parties. Common principles of model-driven research and engineering of organizational or technical artefacts will guarantee consistency and interoperability of the results obtained.

In order to model and study organizational and business agility in a system context we inevitably should join together most of research themes which we have been developing before in the scope of EOMAS, like enterprise architecture, semantic interoperability, model-driven design of information systems, models validation, business value co-creation.
