Preface
Enterpriseinteroperabilityisakeyfactorforthesuccessofcollaborativeorganizations.
It determines to what extent companies can make use of each other’s unique capa-
bilitiesandsocreateaddedbusinessvaluethroughsynergeticeffects.Italsodetermines
the agility of a company in that it enables the company to leave or change an existing
collaboration structure and establish collaboration with new partners efficiently.
Enterprise interoperability transcends different functional levels and has many
concerns that need to be considered. Moreover, all phases of the enterprise interop-
erabilitylifecycle must be anticipated,supported, andmaintained by business partners
in order to be able to fully exploit the potential of collaboration. Enterprise interop-
erability is thus an essential requirement for companies, but because of its scope and
complexity, it is not easily achieved.
The design and engineering of enterprise interoperability is challenging in an
increasingly interoperation-demanding economy and society. Enterprises operate in
dynamiccontextswithchangingdemands,marketopportunities,businesspartners,and
technology solutions. Enterprise interoperability therefore cannot be solved alone by
developing and adopting a static set of standards. Enterprise interoperability solutions
for future enterprise networks should be able to negotiate standards and standard
options, have built-in mechanisms to cope with changing partners, aligning interop-
erabilitysettingswithpartners’businessgoals,andbecontext-awareandself-adaptive
in case of long-running enterprise interoperations. Enterprise interoperability engi-
neering addresses these issues, starting from existing definitions and frameworks that
have been developed and tested in previous research and projects.
IWEIisanInternationalIFIPWorkingConferencecoveringallaspectsofenterprise
interoperability with the purpose of achieving flexible cross-organizational collabora-
tion through integrated support at organizational, business, and technical levels. It
provides a forum for discussing ideas and results among both researchers and practi-
tioners. Contributions to the followingareas are highlighted: scientific foundations for
specifying, analyzing, and validating interoperability solutions; architectural frame-
works for addressing interoperability challenges from different viewpoints and at dif-
ferent levels of abstraction; maturity models to evaluate and rank interoperability
solutionswithrespecttodistinguishedqualitycriteria;andpracticalsolutionsandtools
that can be applied to interoperability problems to date.
This year’s IWEI – IWEI 2015 – was held during May 28–29, 2015, in Nîmes,
France,followingpreviouseventsinEnschede,TheNetherlands(2013),Harbin,China
(2012), Stockholm, Sweden (2011), Valencia, Spain (2009), and Munich, Germany
(2008). The theme of IWEI 2015 is “From Enterprise Interoperability Modelling and
Analysis to Enterprise Interoperability Engineering,” thus especially soliciting sub-
missions and discussions related to enterprise interoperability engineering issues in
dynamic enterprise networks.

andinvestigation.

oral presentation and publication. The selection was based on a thorough review
process,inwhicheachpaperwasreviewedbythreeexpertsinthefield.Thepapersare
representativeofthecurrentresearchactivitiesintheareaofenterpriseinteroperability.
They cover a wide spectrum of enterprise interoperability issues, ranging from foun-
dational theories, frameworks, architectures, methods and guidelines to applications
and case studies.
Two keynotes were given by Dr. Sergio Gusmeroli, Research and Innovation
Director of TXT in Italy, and Prof. Henrique Martins, CEO of SMMS – Shared
ServicesoftheMinistryofHealthinPortugal.Dr.Gusmeroliaddressedtheapplication
of enterprise interoperability methods and tools to manufacturing service ecosystems.
Professor Martins talked about the phenomenon of information explosion and the
challenge it brings to enterprise interoperability. He discussed the European eHealth
Network and its associated eHealth Interoperability Framework.
