Decision-oriented applications are complex due to the underlying business policies and require the participation of many stakeholders, from business experts over analysts to IT developers. In current practice, business users do not own their applications, as their construction and maintenance inevitably require having other agents involved. In the recent years, progress has been made in standardization of modeling and knowledge representation languages, as well as advances in methodologies and theoretical foundations for policy acquisition and execution. It is becoming increasingly feasible to reduce the coupling between policies and their implementations, and to empower users to independently interact with the part of a business application that is relevant to them, including the decision modeling process. One approach towards achieving this objective is to separate understandably the representation of the knowledge at the business, operational and execution levels, on the one hand; and the business vocabulary from the business rules, on the other. At the same time, it must be possible to merge them at any moment in order to provide integrated ownership, combined execution and consistency checking.The goal of this workshop is to gather together the community of business users in charge of decision-support business applications. The workshop will be a means for practitioners to share and exchange experiences, best practices, critical visions, success stories, and to de?ne a possible roadmap to the future.Topics of interestLessons learnt in business modeling using business languagesFrom models to solutions: transforming business speci?cations into rule-based softwareAcquisition of business policies from text: NLP in actionIntegrated management and maintenance of business models, ontologies and rulesDecision-modeling to bridge the gap between business requirements and implementationsExperiences in ef?ciency and scalability of BRMS and reasonersBest practices for consistency maintenance of ontologies and rules over timeEnd-to-end coherence: traceability and change propagationBRMS tools interoperability: standards and open challengesGiving ownership of business applications back to business usersAppropriate languages for business knowledge reuse and adaptabilityUsability in decision-support business applicationsModel documentation: understanding business policiesExperiences in cost reduction and improved time to market using ontologies and rules combinationsUse cases for state-of-the-art decision-support systems: actual requirements and expected bene?tsLessons learnt in business modeling using business languagesFrom models to solutions: transforming business speci?cations into rule-based softwareAcquisition of business policies from text: NLP in actionIntegrated management and maintenance of business models, ontologies and rulesDecision-modeling to bridge the gap between business requirements and implementationsExperiences in ef?ciency and scalability of BRMS and reasonersBest practices for consistency maintenance of ontologies and rules over timeEnd-to-end coherence: traceability and change propagationBRMS tools interoperability: standards and open challengesGiving ownership of business applications back to business usersAppropriate languages for business knowledge reuse and adaptabilityUsability in decision-support business applicationsModel documentation: understanding business policiesExperiences in cost reduction and improved time to market using ontologies and rules combinationsUse cases for state-of-the-art decision-support systems: actual requirements and expected bene?tsSubmissionsWe are inviting the submission of full papers (up to 8 pages), position papers (up to 5) and posters (both 2-page extended abstracts or ?nal posters) focusing on the aforementioned or related topics and representing original research.
