This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of seven international workshops held in Stockholm, Sweden, in conjunction with the 27th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering, CAiSE 2015, in June 2015. The 38 full and nine short papers were carefully selected from 107 submissions. The workshops were the Second International Workshop on Advances in Services Design based on the Notion of Capability (ASDENCA), the Third International Workshop on Cognitive Aspects of Information Systems Engineering (COGNISE), the First International Workshop on Digital Business Innovation and the Future Enterprise Information Systems Engineering (DiFenSE), the First International Workshop on Enterprise Modeling (EM), the First Workshop on the Role of Real-World Objects in Business Process Management Systems (RW-BPMS), the 10th International Workshop on Trends in Enterprise Architecture Research (TEAR), and the 5th International Workshop on Information Systems Security Engineering (WISSE).

Enterprise modeling (EM) has gained significant traction in both academia and practice, leading to the development of various methods, approaches, and tools. These are utilized for purposes such as business strategy development, process restructuring, and aligning business with IT architecture. The second IFIP WG 8.1 Working Conference on The Practice of Enterprise Modeling took place in November 2009 in Stockholm, Sweden, serving as a forum for researchers, users, and practitioners to enhance the understanding and practice of EM. The conference received 41 submissions from around the globe, with 17 high-quality papers selected by the Program Committee, showcasing contributions from both researchers and practitioners. The program highlighted the multifaceted nature of EM, addressing human and organizational issues alongside technical aspects of information systems development. It included six thematic sessions: Experiences in EM, The process of modeling, EM in information systems development, Model quality and reuse, EM for Services modeling, and New ventures in EM. Additionally, the program featured two keynotes from experienced EM practitioners, enriching the discussions and insights shared during the event.

CAiSE 2004 marked the 16th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering, hosted by the Faculty of Computer Science and Information Technology at Riga Technical University, Latvia. Since the late 1980s, these conferences have served as a platform for sharing research and practical experiences in Information Systems Engineering. The 2004 theme focused on Knowledge and Model Driven Information Systems Engineering for Networked Organizations. Modern businesses and IT systems now navigate a complex environment defined by openness, variety, and change. Organizations are becoming less self-sufficient, increasingly reliant on business partners and other stakeholders, necessitating greater interoperability among systems. The diversity in business operations is expanding, leading to a growing demand for varied competencies within the workforce. Additionally, the technological landscape is saturated with numerous languages, platforms, devices, standards, and products. Organizations must also adapt to a rapidly changing environment, where lead times, product life cycles, and partner relationships are continuously evolving. This ongoing need to align IT with shifting technologies and business practices has sparked innovative concepts that may significantly influence future information systems engineering, including autonomic computing, component and services marketplaces, and dynamically generated software.
