SUMMARY:PROSE 2026: International Workshop on Process-Centric Objects for S
 oftware Engineering
DESCRIPTION:Registration is now open!  Please register at https://fg-petrin
 etze.gi.de/veranstaltung/awpn-2026 by clicking the button "Anmelden" on the
  right-hand side.\n\n \n\nWorkshop Theme and Scope:\n\nRecent advancements 
 in Business Process Modeling and Process Mining have improved the discovery
  and visualization of complex organizational behavior by treating objects a
 s first-class citizens of a workflow model. However, a significant gap rema
 ins: discovered models primarily provide a global runtime perspective, but 
 lack the modularity, encapsulation, and integration needed for software eng
 ineering. The Process-Centric Objects (PCO) paradigm proposes a shift from 
 global process perspective toward modular system design. By treating proces
 s models as classes, Process-Centric Objects enable the design of autonomou
 s, vertically integrated process types that encapsulate data, objects, and 
 their lifecycles within a single executable entity. They also capture how o
 bjects relate, compose, interact, and synchronize. This workshop aims to br
 ing together researchers and practitioners to discuss the formalization, de
 sign, and execution of process-centric objects, as well as their extraction
  from discovered process models, thereby bridging the gap between object ce
 ntric process mining, system design, and software engineering.\n\n \n\nTopi
 cs of Interest:\n\nWe invite submissions on topics including, but not limit
 ed to:\n\n 	Modularity, Composition, Interaction: Formal foundations of obj
 ect-centric models, distinguishing between structural composition (permanen
 t 1:N and M:N relationships) and dynamic interaction (event-based synchroni
 zation) as modular alternatives to global synchronization. 	Formal Mappings
  and Interoperability: Relationships and transformations between different 
 formalisms for data-centric objects, process-centric objects, and object-ce
 ntric processes (e.g., Entity-Relationship Diagrams, Class Diagrams, SQL, B
 PMN, Colored Petri Nets, and OCPN). 	Case Studies: Case studies demonstrati
 ng the PCO paradigm in practice. 	Inheritance and Polymorphism: Applying th
 eories of inheritance specifically to the lifecycle of process-centric obje
 cts; focusing on the abstraction and specialization of process classes whil
 e preserving behavioral consistency. 	Extraction of Classes (Modules): Algo
 rithms for slicing global models into modular, executable process-centric c
 lasses. 	Vertical Integration in Process-Centric Object Applications: Encap
 sulation of data, application as a lifecycle, and presentation layers withi
 n process-centric objects. \n\n \n\nSubmission Guidelines:\n\nPapers should
  be submitted in the LNCS style to https://process-centric-objects.org. Con
 tributions will not undergo a detailed review process but will be assessed 
 by the program committee for relevance. If requested by the participants, a
 ccepted papers will be published in a common proceedings volume with AWPN 2
 026 within the digital library of the German Foundation of Informatics (GI)
 , offering a digital object identifier (DOI). We seek position papers, work
  in progress and research papers:\n\n 	Position Papers (2-4 pages): Visiona
 ry ideas on object-centric process and process-centric objects paradigms. 	
 Work in Progress (up to 6 pages): Ongoing research and research proposals. 
 	Full Research Papers (12 pages): Original research on formalisms, modellin
 g methodology or architectures for PCOs. \n\n \n\nImportant Dates:\n\nAbstr
