Adaptability of Service Based Workflow Models: The "Chained Execution" Architecture
نویسندگان
چکیده
Business processes are frequently subject to changes which must be supported by process models and systems implementing them. This paper deals with adaptability of Inter-Organizational Workflow (IOWF) process models based on services. It states conceptually, typical adaptations that can be operated on IOWF models obeying to the chained execution architecture. IOWF models are described through the concepts of service and orchestration function expressed using basic control flow operators. Thus, operations of adaptation turn to modification of services and transformation of orchestration functions describing the model. We particularly distinguish evolvable adaptation leading to expansion of the cooperation and/or the global functionality of the process.

Architectural Plan for Constructing Fault Tolerable Workflow Engines Based on Grid Service
In this paper the design and implementation of fault tolerable architecture for scientific workflow engines is presented. The engines are assumed to be implemented as composite web services. Current architectures for workflow engines do not make any considerations for substituting faulty web services with correct ones at run time. The difficulty is to rollback the execution state of the workflo...

Business processes are continually subject to changes which must be supported by process models and systems that implement them. This paper deals with the adaptability of process models obeying to specific architectures of Inter-Organizational Workflow (IOWF) such as the “subcontracting” and the “chained execution”. In order to obtain process models easily adaptable, we first propose cooperatio...
