We are pleased to present the proceedings of the workshops held alongside ER 2005, the 24th International Conference on Conceptual Modeling. These workshops aimed to broaden the conference's scope by providing participants a platform to discuss emerging topics in conceptual modeling and explore new perspectives on understanding and representing organizations, particularly in virtual e-environments and their supporting information systems. Five workshops were selected: AOIS 2005 focused on Agent-Oriented Information Systems; BP-UML 2005 addressed Best Practices of UML; CoMoGIS 2005 concentrated on Geographic Information Systems; eCOMO 2005 explored E-business approaches; and QoIS 2005 examined the Quality of Information Systems. The workshops garnered 18, 27, 31, 9, and 17 papers, respectively. In line with the ER workshop philosophy, program committees selected contributions based on rigorous peer reviews to ensure high standards. Acceptance rates for the workshops were 44%, 33%, 39%, 44%, and 41%, with a total of 40 papers selected from 102 submissions, resulting in a weighted average acceptance rate of 40%.
