Based on the state of the art of process mining, we can conclude that quality characteristics (failure rate metrics or loops) are poorly represented or absent in most predictive models that can be found in the literature. The main goal of this present research work is to analyze how to learn prediction model defining failure as response variable. A model of this type can be used for active real-time-controlling...
In order to mining the organizational setting and interactions among coworkers from workflow logs, we define metrics to establish the relationships among originators by analyzing the information in the workflow logs. Generate relation networks from the workflow logs by applying the handover of work metric. By applying these methods, we can construct the corresponding relation networks which reflects...
Many activities in business process management, such as process search, process clustering, and process mining, need to determine the similarity between two process models. Although several approaches have recently been proposed to measure the behavioral similarity between business processes, all of them require that tasks in processes are properly labeled. According to these approaches, similarity...
The windows workflow foundation (WF) has been introduced as part of the .NET framework as a means of creating workflow-centric applications. Its intended field of application is broad, ranging from fat-client applications and Web applications to enterprise application integration solutions. Unlike other approaches windows workflow supports two distinct approaches to workflow specification - sequential...
This paper introduces a flexible persistence model for state machine workflows. In contrast to the persistence support in contemporary process definition languages and corresponding workflow engines we propose a model where, firstly, an arbitrary number of persistence providers can be attached to the process engine and, secondly, the workflows can dynamically decide when they should be stored persistently...
Today's complex and multi-layered enterprise systems demand fine-grained access control mechanisms supporting dynamic security policies for large and distributed repositories. Thus, the efficient evaluation of security policies becomes an important factor for the overall system performance, specifically with respect to systems with a high degree of user interaction like workflow systems. Caching approaches...
Specification of business processes is becoming a significant aspect of development of Web-based services. Workflows are applied to a business process in order to identify and describe details in the relationships among different business activities. In structuring the relationships among processes, workflows focus mainly on control flow aspects. In this paper we advocate an alternative method for...
Xinpai has been used to coordinate activities consisting of business processes. However, the coordination between process agents cannot be described wholly only in terms of activities and their relationships. In this paper, a new kind of coordination mechanism between multi-agents is proposed using the extended-Xinpai. In order to make process agents collaborate in a more effective way, five basic...
With reference to the idea of component design for workshop production business, a workflow and multi-agent based Reconfigurable Platform of Manufacturing Execution System (RPMES) is presented. The configurable workshop production business can be handled, and the MES application system can correspondingly adjust with its change. The KQML is expanded to compensate for its description ability in the...
The conceptual workflow can be taken as a middle level between the logical specification level and the physical execution level in business workflow system. The conceptual workflow is very important in providing the independency from both the business operational model and the specified implementation platform, so it supports flexible modifications both in the top level and in the bottom level. In...
The purpose of this paper is to refocus programs back to the basic objectives of systems engineering execution and capturing key domain knowledge during the time when organizations are adopting new processes, procedures or technology. While change is necessary, the discipline of the systems engineering and development process (requirements, design, implementation, test, delivery, product feedback...
