  • Open Source Power on BPM - a Comparison of Jboss Jbpm and Intalio BPMS
    Open Source Power on BPM - A Comparison of JBoss jBPM and Intalio BPMS Pin Nie, Riku Seppälä, Måns Hafrén T-86.5161 Special Course in Information Systems Integration Abstract. This paper presents a comparison of two open source products in Business Process Management: Intalio BPMS and JBoss jBPM. A framework for their comparison is constructed based on expert advice and a literature analysis. We implemented a simple process with both tools to gather experience of using the tools and combined this knowledge with information from official documentation, tutorials, research and any available third-party documentation. With this knowledge, the two tools were compared using the comparison framework. In the end, we score the two tools across the categories identified in the comparison framework and provide further discussion for future work. Keywords: BPMS, BPM, jBPM, Intalio, JBoss, Redhat, evaluation, comparison framework, open source 1 Introduction Business Process Management (BPM) is gaining increasing attention and consideration in organization and enterprise architecture as a bridge between information technology (IT) and business. BPM is a holistic management approach that promotes business effectiveness and flexibility on the basis of a set of standardized IT technologies and tools. The technology solutions that address the need for BPM are called Business Process Management Systems (or suites), or BPMS. There are various definitions for Business Process Management (Smith & Fingar, 2003; Hill et al., 2006). A recent and influential definition is given by Mathias Weske: “A business process management system is a generic software system that is driven by explicit process representations to coordinate the enactment of business process.” (Weske, 2007) However, most of the BPM tools and software employed today are expensive commercial products.

  • An Approach for Modeling and Transforming Contextually-Aware Software Engineering Workflows
    ICSEA 2014 : The Ninth International Conference on Software Engineering Advances An Approach for Modeling and Transforming Contextually-Aware Software Engineering Workflows Roy Oberhauser Computer Science Dept. Aalen University Aalen, Germany [email protected] Abstract—Software engineering environments (SEE) face rigid, and inflexible [6], and fail to adequately support the challenges for providing automated guidance for human- human, creative, and dynamics of SW development. Thus, centric software development workflows. Among the various such systems are ignored or abandoned by SW engineers. issues is the lack of a method to model software engineering To address this challenge for such human-centric SE (SE) workflows, as commonly used business process modeling processes, we created a PCSEE called the Context-aware notation is generalized and not conducive to context-aware Software Engineering Environment Event-driven Framework support for SEE, while available SE-specific process model (CoSEEEK) [7]. Beyond SE tool sensors and other notation, such as the Software & Systems Process Engineering contextual knowledge, it utilizes workflows to understand Metamodel, is not executable. The solution approach in this the process context. That includes knowing which activities a paper simplifies and validates the modeling of SE workflows SW engineer performed, which activity is likely currently via graphical modeling capabilities that extend the Software Engineering Workflow Language (SEWL). Model-based being worked on, which activity is next, and associates these transformation of workflow concepts to diverse workflow with SE concepts of project, teams, persons, roles, tools, and management systems (WfMS), as well semantic transformation artifacts via an ontology and reasoner. While various facets of SE concepts to a contextually-aware process-centered were investigated, including collaboration [8], quality software engineering environment - CoSEEEK, is supported.

  • Diflow: a Distributed Workflow Management System
    DIFLOW: A DISTRIBUTED WORKFLOW MANAGEMENT SYSTEM by ANUJ SUNIL SHETYE (Under the Direction of Krzysztof J. Kochut) ABSTRACT Workflow systems are one of the key technologies enabling automation of business processes and, recently, scientific applications. Traditionally, control of the execution of workflow processes has been centralized, despite the fact that they have frequently involved and coordinated systems executing at distributed computing nodes. Today, there is a need for decentralized and distributed workflow management systems (WfMS). In this thesis, we present DIFLOW, a system for designing and executing workflow processes based on dynamic migration of workflow instances during runtime. The system allows a process designer to define process constraints, which are specified in terms of process variables and capabilities of the workflow’s processing nodes (performers). At runtime, workflow instances may migrate to computing nodes that satisfy the defined constraints. Process constraints in DIFLOW may capture functional or non-functional requirements of the process, which cannot be expressed using typical process definition languages, such as BPMN. In this thesis, we introduce a Constraint Definition Language (CDL) to describe constraints comprising of performer capabilities and domain specific variables for providing necessary migration meta-information. We also present a design and implementation of DIFLOW capable of scheduling and enacting workflow instances in a distributed environment.

The platform is evalu- ated in the first instance by implementing the control-flow patterns which will be used at a later stage as a comparison with other platforms that have already been evaluated. Activiti comes with a web application called Activiti Explorer which is a graphical user interface between the process engine and the user. As all the desired features commissioned by the Cybercom Group were not available in the Activiti Explorer its source-code was extended. These extended features included support for several companies per installation and the ability to customize the layout of the components in user task forms. The report is concluded with a comparison between Activiti, jBPM, OpenWFE and Enhydra shark with regards to the control-flow patterns.

  • Open Source Business Process Management for Handling Processes in the Public Sector
    Open source Business Process Management for handling processes in the public sector MIKAELA NÖTEBERG Master’s Thesis at CSC Supervisor: Joel Brynielsson Examiner: Jens Lagergren TRITA xxx yyyy-nn Abstract Business processes are part of every organization, in more or less structured ways. They serve as a documentation of how work should be performed. Business Process Management (BPM) is a set of methods and technologies to support the modeling, execution, administration, and analysis of busi- ness processes. BPM aims to bridge the gap between strat- egy and operations in an organization. Inefficient manual processes in this gap introduce problems with consistency, traceability and agility. This degree project investigates the suitability of open source Business Process Manage- ment Systems (BPMSs) for handling processes in govern- ment agencies to address these issues. The Swedish Export Credits Guarantee Board’s (EKN’s) application process for export guarantee offers is used as case. Interviews were conducted and a proof of concept using open source BPM for EKN’s application process was implemented, which to- gether with the literature review are analyzed to find key factors indicating a process’ successful execution in a pro- cess engine. The key factors found are that the process should be delimited, repetitive, not running for too long, and be predictable with regard to every possible outcome. Referat Open source Business Process Management för handläggningsprocesser inom offentlig verksamhet Alla organisationer har processer, i mer eller mindre struk- turerade former. Processer fungerar som en dokumentation över hur arbete ska genomföras. Business Process Mana- gement (BPM) är en uppsättning metoder och tekniker för att stödja modellering, exekvering, administrering och analys av processer.
