Abstract:
Modern business process management (BPM) is increasingly interesting for laboratory automation. End-to-end workflow automation and improved top-level systems integration for information technology (IT) and automation systems are especially prominent objectives. With the ISO Standard Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) 2.X, a system-independent and interdisciplinary accepted graphical process control notation is provided, allowing process analysis, while also being executable. The transfer of BPM solutions to structured laboratory automation places novel demands, for example, concerning the real-time-critical process and systems integration. The article discusses the potential of laboratory execution systems (LESs) for an easier implementation of the business process management system (BPMS) in hierarchical laboratory automation. In particular, complex application scenarios, including long process chains based on, for example, several distributed automation islands and mobile laboratory robots for a material transport, are difficult to handle in BPMSs. The presented approach deals with the displacement of workflow control tasks into life science specialized LESs, the reduction of numerous different interfaces between BPMSs and subsystems, and the simplification of complex process modelings. Thus, the integration effort for complex laboratory workflows can be significantly reduced for strictly structured automation solutions. An example application, consisting of a mixture of manual and automated subprocesses, is demonstrated by the presented BPMS-LES approach.

Abstract:
Business Process Management Systems ( BPMSs ) provide automated support for the execution of business processes in modern organisations. With the emergence of cloud computing, BPMS deployment considerations are shifting from traditional on-premise models to the Software-as-a-Service ( SaaS ) paradigm, aiming at delivering Business Process Automation as a Service. However, scaling up a traditional BPMS to cope with simultaneous demand from multiple organisations in the cloud is challenging, since its underlying system architecture has been designed to serve a single organisation with a single process engine. Moreover, the complexity in addressing both the dynamic execution environment and the elasticity requirements of users impose further challenges to deploying a traditional BPMS in the cloud. A typical SaaS often deploys multiple instances of its core applications and distributes workload to these application instances via load balancing. But, for stateful and often long-running process instances, standard stateless load balancing strategies are inadequate. In this article, we propose a conceptual design of BPMS capable of addressing dynamically varying demands of end users in the cloud, and present a prototypical implementation using an open source traditional BPMS platform. Both the design and system realisation offer focused strategies on achieving scalability and demonstrates the system capabilities for supporting both upscaling, to address large volumes of user demand or workload, and downscaling, to release underutilised computing resources, in a cloud environment.

Abstract:
Workflow management systems (WfMSs) also known as business process management systems (BPMSs) are increasingly popular in today’s large organizations. In spite of this popularity, many processes are still supported by ad hoc systems based, for example, on spreadsheets and homegrown databases. In particular, there is a lack of flexible process automation approaches that are able to bridge the gap between these ad hoc solutions and large-scale systems. This paper reports on a flexible WfMS and approach that blends formal and informal workflow modeling and execution, thus supporting different types of processes. We validate our work by discussing its design and implementation, and by analyzing its use in four different use cases within Siemens business units. We also discuss the role of action items as important flexibility mechanisms behind our model. Showing its ability to handle exceptions and ad hoc workflows.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to address the extant and arguable role of enterprise systems (ES) in relation to management accounting practices (MAPs) through an inclusion relative neglect account of business process management (BPM). This is also extended to draw out an analytical framework to advance our understanding of how BPM mediate ES-MAPs interplay. Design/methodology/approach A cross-sectional case study was adopted as a research strategy with which to collect data about the ES-BPM-MAPs interplay as a unit of analysis. The latter, in the first stage, was examined across (89) mini-case studies operating in the UK context through reports and documentations collected from cases’ websites, vendors and consultants of information systems. Drawn insights from cross-sectional analysis and contributions made by prior studies are blended together to inform the second stage that outlines an analytical framework for ES-BPM-MAPs interplay. Findings Different ES are mobilised to address different orientations of BPMs and being used for different managerial functions and purposes. Different patterns of ES-BPM-MAPs interplay are identified across (89) UK-case studies and the BPM is a fulcrum understanding. These patterns are centred around three key BPM including customer, logistics and control processes and all oriented by a continuum of an organisation intention focus on control, understanding and strategising. Both processes and orientations explain ES development and MAPs evolution processes. Standardisation, integration and intelligence are key characteristics sought through ES mobilisations. By complementary, information provision, analytics and simulation are three sophisticated ways of using MA information facilitated by ES characteristics. Research limitations/implications Dynamic processes of MAPs change over time and are beyond the reach of this study. Such approach requires full access to case studies. BPM is fulcrum understanding of MAPs change and/or stability in relation to ES implementation including other components. Practical implications Findings and analytical framework could be used as a base for establishing the best approach in adopting ES to fully exploit the potential of future ES applications as well as to avoid organisations pitfalls of implementations. Organisations are advised to understand their existing business processes, characteristics of MA information would be achieved first upon which decision of ES components selection and implementation could be outlined. Originality/value The indirect interplay between ES and MAPs through business processes is rarely examined. By the inclusion of BPM and using cross-sectional case studies, this research contributes to the existing shortcomings of ES-MAPs interplay by broadening the picture and proposing an analytical framework. The latter advances our understanding by focusing on attributes of ES-BPM-MAPs upon which informal changes in-the use of MAPs are recognised.

Abstract:
The basic business management is the management of the structure of business processes. The success and efficiency of management is a complex and quite capacious activity, which depends on the chosen tools, in particular, the use of information technology. The IT market demonstrates a wide variety of software products for business process development and management. The article is devoted to the study of modern IT products and determine its specifics. The management methodology has a wide range of business process management tools. The authors consider the main business process management systems: BPMS, which provides opportunities to implement business processes in accordance with their formal model; IDEF standard methodology of the ICAM family whose purpose is to model complex systems, display and analyze the model; ARIS, which allows you to create systems of balanced scores and optimize business processes in accordance with these indicators; BPMN, the feature of which is the ability to describe and model business processes; BPEL standard created for the design and execution of business processes. Considered languages: YAWL, which is used to formally describe business processes; UML is a unified modeling language used in the object-oriented programming system, it contains object-oriented notations. The article discusses only some of the methods used by company managers to effectively manage business processes. Studies of even a small proportion of these methods provide a number of benefits, but it is important to remember that simply mastering these tools in business process management does not guarantee success, but its absence can lead to loss of competitiveness, reduced market share and low efficiency.

Abstract:
Nowadays, the companies must adapt their business processes changing more dynamically in accordance with rapidly changing market conditions and IT systems. This paper extends our previous method, which shows a novel approach to integrate a service system. In this paper, we focus on the integrated problems of the Business Process Management System (BPMS). The service is encapsulated as a SCA service component，which is extended to be a service surrogate. Meanwhile, the XML-based process template is used to define the composition process. An interactive access control strategy based on service components is also proposed. At the end of this paper, it is applied in the textile-order process management system (TPMS) as a case study.

Abstract:
Actively involving participants in business process modeling enables integration between elicitation and modeling steps of the BPM lifecycle. Such integration may lead to a more efficient design procedure and ultimately to a more accurate representation of the business process. However, active involvement of process participants creates several challenges, as the latter are not expected to have modeling skills. The purpose of this paper is to present a business process design approach, called CoMPArE /WP, which tightly integrates the elicitation and modeling stages of process design, through the active involvement of process participants. To achieve effective involvement of process participants, CoMPArE/WP adopts the principles of natural modeling. However, being a business process design approach aiming at supporting the whole BPM lifecycle, CoMPArE /WP deals also with the transition of natural modeling to formal process representations that can be enacted using a BPMS.

Abstract:
Las organizaciones están viviendo un cambio en el paradigma de desarrollo de sus sistemas de información: de los datos a los procesos. La finalidad que se persigue con ello es enfatizar los procesos de negocio para conseguir arquitecturas más ágiles y flexibles adaptables a los continuos cambios que se producen en los mercados en los que las organizaciones desarrollan su negocio. El objetivo es independizar la gestión de los procesos de negocio de las aplicaciones, para que cualquier modificación en la lógica de negocio no afecte al código de las aplicaciones. Para ello se utilizarán sistemas de gestión de procesos de negocio (BPMS). Es una revolución similar a la que se produjo al asilar la gestión de los datos de las aplicaiones, con la llegada de las bases de datos y el modelo relacional. Este cambio de arquitectura, orientada a los procesos, se consigue más fácilmente si la organización dispone ya de una arquitectura orientada a servicios que además le permitirá exteriorizar su funcionalidad en forma de servicios web. Los procesos de negocio combinarán estos servicos mediante orquestación y coreografías. En este trabajo se aborda la descripción general de los BPMS, estudiando su relación con la integración de aplicaciones y arquitecturas de servicios.<br /><br />Organizations are living a paradigm shift in the development of their information systems: from data to process. The objective is tho emphasize business process to obtain flexible and agile architectures and hence to be capable to face the continuous changes that take place in the environment where the organizations make their business. The purpose is making independent the business process management of software applications and so to achieve that a change in business rules have not a big impact in applications software code. To carry out this goal it will be necessary to build Business Process Management Systems. A similar revolution took place when the introduction of the relational database model cause applications to separate their data model of their logic. This process oriented architectural change can be better obtained if the organization has a previous service oriented architecture. Moreover, in this case the organzation can make a externalization of their functionality by means of web services. Business process could allow to combine services using choreographies and orchestration. This work shows a BPMS general description, studying their relation with the integration of applications and services architectures

Abstract:
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is regarding the execution of business processes by Business Process Management Systems (BPMS), during design-time modelers have to specify the potential performers of a work activity according to their organizational position or role. Once several workers may share the same role, at run-time all of them (indistinctively) can be assigned by BPMS to execute a work activity. However, distinct individuals have different personality traits and, for certain instances of work (requiring, for example, specific soft skills) some of them might perform better. A new approach to work distribution in business processes supported by BPMS, which takes into account the psychological characteristics of workers was proposed.Design/methodology/approachAs stated in Section 3 of the paper, in this work the Design Science Research (DSR) methodology, as proposed by Kuechler and Vaishnavi (2008) was used. All the five steps, from the “Awareness of problem” to the “Conclusion” were accomplished, being described in the paper.FindingsIt is demonstrated that, by using the proposed approach, BPMS might deliver work to people in a more effective way, by selecting those workers that seem to be more suitable to accomplish each particular piece of work, taking into account the characteristics of the work itself and the specific profiles of the workers eligible to execute it.Originality/valueBPMSs are responsible for the execution of business process models, by delivering work activities to suitable agents (human or artificial), which execute them. Addressing a gap in the BPM literature, this paper presents a new approach for improving work distribution in business processes supported by BPMS, enabling to assign (in run-time) the most suitable workers to perform specific work activities, grounded on the concept of psychological profile and taking into account technical, human and social aspects.

Abstract:
Sistemas BPMS surgiram com o objetivo de suportar o modus operandi da gestão por processos nas organizações. Tais sistemas possuem diversas premissas que envolvem a grande interação de usuários de negócio na sua implantação e operação, amparadas por evoluções tecnológicas que permitem a redução drástica de programação e integração com sistemas legados, além do fácil desenvolvimento de indicadores e alteração de regras de negócio. Existem poucos estudos que focam na implantação de sistemas BPMS e avaliação de tais fatores. Esta dissertação buscou através da realização de levantamento bibliográfico e da condução de pesquisa de campo ampliar o conhecimento acerca do tema. A implantação de um sistema BPMS foi realizada através da aplicação de uma pesquisa-ação, o que permitiu a interação e avaliação do tema frente a pontos considerados pela literatura, assim como a descoberta de possíveis fatores a serem considerados. Os resultados obtidos revelam que as proposições não se confirmaram totalmente, o que aponta para um possível distanciamento entre a teoria e a prática. Da mesma forma aponta uma tendência da redução de programação e maior envolvimento de usuários de negócio na implantação e operação de tais sistemas.
BPMS systems have emerged with the goal of supporting the modus operandi of business process management in organizations. Such systems have many assumptions that involve higher interaction of business in its deployment and operation, supported by technological evolutions that allow drastic reduction of programming and integration with legacy systems, beyond the easy development of indicators and changing business rules. There are few studies that focus on BPMS deployment and evaluation of these factors. This dissertation searched through bibliography and the conduction of a field research to extend the knowledge about the subject. The deployment of a BPMS system was carried out by applying research-action method, allowing interaction and evaluation of the theme according to points considered by literature, as well as the discovery of potential factors to consider. The results obtained reveal that the propositions were not fully confirmed, which points to a possible rift between theory and practice. Similarly, it points to a trend of programming reduction and greater involvement of business users in deployment and operation of such systems.

Abstract:
Information technology developments in software and hardware have enabled radical changes in information systems, culminating in the paradigm Business Process Management. There has been a concomitant rise in the importance of information security and security engineering due to the increased reliance by society on information. Information is seen as a critical success factor which needs protection. Information security is the response to increased hazards created through recent innovations in Web technology and the advent of intra and inter enterprise-wide systems. Security engineering is based on a variety of codes of practice and security metrics which aim at ameliorating these increased security hazards. Its aim is to produce a balanced set of security needs which are integrated into the system activities to establish confidence in the effectiveness of the security counter-measures. It is generally accepted that security should be applied in an integrated approach, for example, in Information Systems development. This has proved to be a noble thought but is the exception to the rule. Security, historically, is generally applied as an after-thought in an Information Technology implementation. This motivated the concept of formulating a model of integrating security inherently within the paradigm of BPM. The overarching requirements of the model are to align the overall organisational security initiatives and ensure continuous improvement through constant evaluation and adaptation of the security processes. It is the intention of this research to show that these requirements are achievable through aligning the process management methodology of BPM, with the security paradigms of Information Security Management (using the ISO 17799 standard) and security engineering (using the Systems Security Engineering Capability Maturity Model – SSE-CMM). The aim of the Business Process Security Maturity model as the output of this research, is to link the SSE-CMM, as the security metric and appraisal method, to the ISO 17799 security standard, which provides the guidance for the information security management framework and security control selection, within the Business Process Management environment. The SSE-CMM, as the security version of the Capability Maturity Model, provides the necessary strategy to control the security engineering processes that support the information systems and it maintains that as processes mature they become more predictable, effective and manageable. The aim of the model is to provide an integrated, mature security strategy within the business process and monitor and correct the security posture of the implemented counter-measures.

We analyze here the topic of integration, in the area of factory automation,

from sensor/actuator levels to plant management levels.

The communication at the plant level is based on wireless technology

while management applications run in supervisory concentrators

but can also be distributed, communicating via the Internet. The

work reported here is part of SOCRADES, a European advanced research

and development project aiming to build a design, execution

and management platform for next-generation industrial automation

systems. While theoretical and simulation level results have been

previously reached, our nal goal here is a real-life demonstrator at

a mining plant - New Boliden (Boliden, Sweden). The thesis work

is a continuation of the previous work in the project, and provides

support for the integration of WirelessHART networks at the plant

level, and a management application dialogue between ABB and SAP

systems, two main partners in the SOCRADES project. A small control

environment is to be deployed at the Boliden plant, to supervise

a tank level control system. The plant is connected, via ABB control

and management applications and servers to high management

procedures of the partners. Targeted results of the MSc work are

an interface between wireless and wired systems, the deployment of

a control environment at Boliden, the development of the enterprise

business management facilities and the realization of a software package

to support the WirelessHART solution.

This thesis introduces AD-OPM BPI, which is a new method of conducting business process improvement using both Axiomatic Design and Object-Process Methodology. The premise underlying the method is that modern process improvement techniques boast large efficiency gains, but fail to address the broader process system. Through first using Axiomatic Design to map and optimize the process system, broader-inefficiencies will be addressed before they constrain individual processes. Then Object-Process Methodology is conducted for process-specific optimization by utilizing modern system architecture layering principles to identify nonvalue-adding entities and improve them through deletion or simplification. A case study at a large aerospace manufacturing company demonstrates the method in practical application. Results suggest that application is better suited to new or small-scale systems due to the challenge of applying Axiomatic Design to pre-existing large scale systems. Despite this limitation, Object-Process Methodology remains a viable option for business process improvement, whether or not it is coupled with Axiomatic Design in AD-OPM BPI.

Abstract:
A major challenge to achieving business process agility is the fragmentation of business processes, especially in organizations with semiautonomous business units. This fragmentation manifests itself in the form of diversified business processes performing similar activities. To address this challenge and achieve synergies across business units, processes should be integrated. Extant research on business process management has not paid much attention to such integration. Motivated by this concern, the primary objectives of my research are: “1) to understand how integration of similar business processes is achieved by semiautonomous business units and 2) to develop a process modeling support system that can help find similarities among business process models to aid process designers and to empirically evaluate its effectiveness in supporting process modeling activities.” I use a two-phased approach to address above objectives. In the first phase, I draw upon the analytic concept of frames of reference to develop a socio-cognitive process model to understand cognitive processes of stakeholders involved in the business process integration. This is done by analyzing the shifts in frame salience and frame congruence to enable the development of common-yet-tailorable business process. Data collection was conducted at ManCo, a Fortune 500 manufacturing company that had undertaken a process integration initiative in its multi-billion dollar supply chain across its five business units. Using qualitative data analysis, I identify four frame domains. Shifts in the frame salience and congruence highlight how, through a series of events, process stakeholders bring about integration. Frames domains identified in phase 1 highlight how individual business units’ perceptions differ. The use of diverse terminologies to refer to similar concepts added to the inability of process designers to reuse existing process models. These observations motivated the design research conducted in the second phase. I develop a prototype system, BPSimilar, which helps users to retrieve semantically similar process models. The approach to retrieve process models combines structural and semantic similarity-matching. The need for such a mechanism to speed up the model development was suggested by the case study. The effectiveness of BPSimilar for improving performance of users is evaluated in a qualitative study using verbal protocol analysis.

The importance of collaboration has been recognized for more than 2000 years. While recent improvement in technology creates vast opportunities for collaboration, effective collaboration remains challenging as ad hoc teams work across time, geographical, language, and technical boundaries, and suffer from process inefficiency. My dissertation addresses part of these challenges by proposing theoretical frameworks for business collaboration and process management. Case study is used as a research strategy for this thesis and it consists of three studies. The first study proposes a process modeling framework to support efficient process model design via model transformation and validation. First, we divide process modeling into three layers and formally define three layers of workflow models. Then, we develop a procedure for transforming a conceptual process model into its corresponding logical process model. Third, we create a validation procedure that can validate whether the derived logical model is consistent with its original conceptual model. The second study proposes a framework for analyzing the relationship between interaction processes and collaboration efficiency in software issue resolution in open source community. We first develop an algorithm to identify frequent interaction process structures referred to as interaction process patterns. Then, we assess patterns' impact through a time-dependent Cox regression model. By applying the interaction process analysis framework to software issue resolution processes, we identify several patterns that are significantly correlated with collaboration efficiency. We further conduct a case study to validate the findings of pattern efficiency in software issue resolution. The third study addresses the issue of suitability of virtual collaboration. Virtual collaboration seems to work well for some cases, but not for others. We define collaboration virtualization as the suitability for a task to be conducted virtually and propose a Collaboration Virtualization Theory (CVT) to explain collaboration virtualization. Three categories (i.e., task, technology, and team) of constructs that determine the suitability of collaboration virtualization are derived from a systematic literature review of related areas. In summary, this dissertation addresses challenges in collaboration and process management, and we believe that our research will have important theoretical and practical impacts on the development of collaboration management systems.

Abstract:
Web services composition is an emerging paradigm for enabling inter and intra organizational integration, and a landscape of languages and techniques for modeling business processes in web service based environments has emerged and is continuously being enriched. With the advent of modeling standards, different business sectors are investigating the options for modeling their workflows. In terms of business process modeling, healthcare is a rather complex sector of activity. Indeed, modeling healthcare processes presents special requirements dictated by the complicated and dynamic nature of these processes as well as by the specificity and diversity of the actors involved in these processes. Little effort has been dedicated to evaluating the capabilities and limitations of modeling languages based on healthcare requirements. This thesis presents a set of healthcare requirements and proposes an evaluation framework for process modeling languages based on these requirements. The suitability of three major process-based service composition languages, namely BPEL, BPMN and WS-CDL, is evaluated.

Abstract:
Over the past decade, the ubiquity of business processes and their need for ongoing management in the same manner as other corporate assets has been recognized through the establishment of a dedicated research area: Business Process Management (or BPM). There are a wide range of potential software technologies on which a BPM o®ering can be founded. Although there is signi¯cant variation between these alternatives, they all share one common factor { their execution occurs on the basis of a business process model { and consequently, this ¯eld of technologies can be termed Process-Aware Information Systems (or PAIS). This thesis develops a conceptual foundation for PAIS based on the results of a detailed examination of contemporary o®erings including work°ow and case han- dling systems, business process modelling languages and web service composition languages. This foundation is based on 126 patterns that identify recurrent core constructs in the control-°ow, data and resource perspectives of PAIS. These patterns have been used to evaluate some of the leading systems and business process modelling languages. It also proposes a generic graphical language for de¯ning exception handling strategies that span these perspectives. On the basis of these insights, a comprehensive reference language { newYAWL { is developed for business process modelling and enactment. This language is formally de¯ned and an abstract syntax and operational semantics are provided for it. An assessment of its capabilities is provided through a comprehensive patterns-based analysis which allows direct comparison of its functionality with other PAIS. newYAWL serves as a reference language and many of the ideas embodied within it are also applicable to existing languages and systems. The ultimate goal of both the patterns and newYAWL is to improve the support and applicability of PAIS.

Abstract:
Gerenciamento de processos de negócio tem se tornado frequente no contexto de Sistemas de Informação (SI), permitindo um fluxo de negócio mais organizado e alinhado aos requisitos de software. Porém, a integração de Sistemas de Informação com os atuais Sistemas de Gerenciamento de Processos de Negócio (do inglês, Business Process Management System, BPMS) ainda possui algumas limitações, tais como alta taxa de trabalho manual, falta de padronização de código e complexidade de arquiteturas BPMSs. Com base nisso, este trabalho tem como proposta uma abordagem para integração de Sistemas de Informação e BPMSs. Mais especificamente, uma abordagem que permite abstrair a captura das atividades de usuário em um SI e sua execução em um BPMS. Para fins de avaliação, a abordagem proposta foi utilizada com uma aplicação exemplo. A mesma aplicação foi integrada diretamente com um BPMS de mercado e com um framework de mapeamento Objeto-Processo de Negócio. A partir das três implementações do sistema, foram realizadas análises qualitativa e quantitativa.
