Using BPMN to model Internet of Things behavior within business process

Using BPMN to model Internet of Things behavior within business process

Whereas, traditionally, business processes use the Internet of Things (IoTs) as a distributed source of information, the increase of computational capabilities of IoT devices provides them with the means to also execute parts of the business logic, reducing the amount of exchanged data and central processing. Current approaches based on Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) already support...

Business Process Model and Notation - BPMN

The Things of the Internet of Things in BPMN

The component "thing" of the Internet of Things does not yet exist in current business process modeling standards. The "thing" is the essential and central concept of the Internet of Things, and without its consideration we will not be able to model the business processes of the future, which will be able to measure or change states of objects in our real-world environment. The presented approa...

Using BPMN to Model a BPEL Process

The Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) has been developed to enable business user to develop readily understandable graphical representations of business processes. BPMN is also supported with appropriate graphical object properties that will enable the generation of executable BPEL. Thus, BPMN creates a standardized bridge for the gap between the business process design and process impl...

Internet of Things Aware WS-BPEL Business Process

Business processes can use Internet of Things (IoT) information to monitor context data in real-time and to respond to changes in their values in a timely fashion. For this matter, business process definition and execution languages should foresee an easy way for process modelers to define which values to monitor, and which automatic behaviors to adopt when these values change. In this paper, w...
