This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the international workshops associated with the 33rd International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering, CAiSE 2021, which was held during June 28-July 2, 2021. The conference was planned to take place in Melbourne, Australia, but changed to an online format due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The workshops included in this volume are:·         BC4IS: 1st International Workshop on Blockchain for Information Systems·         EMoBI : 3rd International Workshop on Ethics and Morality in Business Informatics·         KET4DF : 3rd International Workshop on Key Enabling Technology for Digital Factories·         MOBA: 1st International Workshop on Model-driven Organizational and Business Agility·         NeGIS: 2nd International Workshop on Next Generation Information SystemsThey focus on topics and trends ranging from blockchain technologies to digital factories, ethics, and business agility to the next generation of information systems.The 14 full papers and 1 short paper presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 33 submissions.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the BPM Forum of the 19th International Conference on Business Process Management, BPM 2021, which will take place in Rome, Italy, in September 2021.

This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Business Process Management, BPM 2021, held in Rome, Italy, in September 2021. The 23 full papers, one keynote paper, and 4 tutorial papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 92 submissions.

This book presents a framework for developing as well as a comprehensive collection of state-of-the-art process querying methods. Process querying combines concepts from Big Data and Process Modeling and Analysis with Business Process Intelligence and Process Analytics to study techniques for retrieving and manipulating models of real-world and envisioned processes to organize and extract process-related information for subsequent systematic use.The book comprises sixteen contributed chapters distributed over four parts and two auxiliary chapters. The auxiliary chapters by the editor provide an introduction to the area of process querying and a summary of the presented methods, techniques, and applications for process querying. The introductory chapter also examines a process querying framework. The contributed chapters present various process querying methods, including discussions on how they instantiate the framework components, thus supporting the comparison of themethods. The four parts are due to the distinctive features of the methods they include. The first three are devoted to querying event logs generated by IT-systems that support business processes at organizations, querying process designs captured in process models, and methods that address querying both event logs and process models. The methods in these three parts usually define a language for specifying process queries. The fourth part discusses methods that operate over inputs other than event logs and process models, e.g., streams of process events, or do not develop dedicated languages for specifying queries, e.g., methods for assessing process model similarity.This book is mainly intended for researchers. All the chapters in this book are contributed by active researchers in the research disciplines of business process management, process mining, and process querying. They describe state-of-the-art methods for process querying, discuss use cases of process querying, and suggest directions for future work for advancing the field. Yet, also other groups like business or data scientists and other professionals, lecturers, graduate students, and tool vendors will find relevant information for their distinctive needs.Chapter "Celonis PQL: A Query Language for Process Mining" is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
