Conceptual modeling has always been one of the main issues in information systems engineering as it aims to describe the general knowledge of the system at an abstract level that facilitates user understanding and software development. This collection of selected papers provides a comprehensive and extremely readable overview of what conceptual modeling is and perspectives on making it more and more relevant in our society. It covers topics like modeling the human genome, blockchain technology, model-driven software development, data integration, and wiki-like repositories and demonstrates the general applicability of conceptual modeling to various problems in diverse domains. Overall, this book is a source of inspiration for everybody in academia working on the vision of creating a strong, fruitful and creative community of conceptual modelers. With this book the editors and authors want to honor Prof. Antoni Olive for his enormous and ongoing contributions to the conceptual modeling discipline. It was presented to him on the occasion of his keynote at ER 2017 in Valencia, a conference that he has contributed to and supported for over 20 years. Thank you very much to Antoni for so many years of cooperation and friendship.

This book contains revised papers from the 17th International Conference on Enterprise Information Systems, ICEIS 2015, held in Barcelona, Spain, in April 2015. The 31 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 327 submissions. The book also contains one full-paper invited talk. The selected papers reflect state-of-the-art research that is oriented toward real-world applications and highlight the benefits of information systems and technology for industry and services. They are organized in topical sections on databases and information systems integration, artificial intelligence and decision support systems, information systems analysis and specification, software agents and Internet computing, human-computer interaction, and enterprise architecture.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 33rd International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering, CAiSE 2021, which was held online during June 28-July 2, 2021. The conference was planned to take place in Melbourne, Australia, and changed to an online format due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The papers included in these proceedings focus on intelligent information systems and deal with novel approaches to IS engineering; models, methods and techniques in IS engineering; architectures and platforms for IS engineering; and domain specific and multi-aspect in IS engineering.
