The 1st International Conference on Business Technology and Enterprise Systems (BTES 2010) http://siwn.org.uk/2010/BTES10.htm Chongqing, China, 12-14 July 2010 Information Technologies in their broad sense have been profoundly changing the ways, the processes and the philosophies of businesses. Adaptive business applications support processes whose workflows, user interfaces and business rules often change. The need for these dynamic applications is greater now than ever before and business systems in every perspective, management, workflow, information, infrastructure, etc. are evolving themselves towards being autonomic, adaptive, self-managing, self-organizing, and so forth. Emerging technologies such business rules management systems, complex event processing engines, event-driven business process management tools, corporate semantic web technologies, etc. are now gaining increasing momentum as they promise enhanced adaptive and agility capabilities to businesses, in order to sense unexpected environmental changes and to respond to business opportunities or to avoid business risks that turn up in a turbulent and quickly changing business environment. Topics of particular interest include (but not limited to) the following areas. * Enterprise Information / Management Systems including business processes, product and production management, and business rule approaches * Business Collaboration including coalition formation, inter-organizational systems and knowledge management * Supply Chains and Logistics including customer-supplier relationship management, demand chains, agent negotiation models, performance evaluation and benchmarks in SCM * E-Business and e-commerce including agent mediated techniques and mobile applications * Business Intelligence including knowledge based technologies and AI approaches to business applications * On-Demand Business including adaptive, self-organizing, holistic, agile models for enterprises and businesses * Information Infrastructures of Businesses including innovative, distributed, intelligent technologies for enterprise modeling A detailed list of topics can be seen at the conference website.
