The BPM conference has a long tradition as the premier venue for publishing research on business process management. For exploring the evolution of research topics, we present the findings from a computational bibliometric analysis of the BPM conference proceedings from the past 15 years. We used the publicly available DBLP dataset as a basis for the analysis, which we enriched with data from websites and databases of the relevant publishers. In addition to a detailed analysis of the publication results, we performed a content-based analysis of over 1,200 papers from the BPM conference and its workshops using Latent Dirichlet Allocation. This offers insights into historical developments in Business Process Management research and provides the community with potential future prospects.
