	abstract = {Interconnecting services is a complex task. A part of the complexity comes from the need to have a common, shared view of the information, ontology. Thus, there is a need for approaches that help to overcome the differences between service ontologies, and to manage the possible future evolution of the ontologies. The approach proposed in this paper provides a support for cooperation between services. Our proposition is useful for service architectures that evolve and grow in size constantly. The number of services increases and even services are changing to offer new alternatives. The aim is to provide a flexible way to partially automate the processing of ontology and related mapping evolution management. A case study in Telecom service cooperation illustrates the benefits of our approach. We apply our algorithm and implementation prototype p2OEManager to Message Billing Service ontology and Internet Billing Service ontology and particularly, we use our ontology agent model and proto},

	abstract = {Defining IT target state and the specific roadmap to attain it, are main focuses of IT strategic planning which is considered increasingly as the basis for IT decision-making and governance. Unfortunately, it hasn{\textquoteright}t evolved with the same speed as other fields in the IT sphere. Most of the techniques, approaches and methods related to IT Strategic Planning date back to the 80s or 90s and are most often oriented business rather than IT. Enterprise Architecture is a really promising discipline aimed at capturing the as-is architecture of an enterprise, defining the target and the roadmap to get from existing to desired state. In that way, it is tightly related to IT strategic planning and it can provide a framework to fill the gap and contribute in structuring and formalizing IT Strategic Planning field. Enterprise Architecture benefits from a standardization effort as well as from tool support. Deliverables and artifacts are generally well defined and structured in the existing framewor},
