چکیده
This document describes the PIF-CORE 1.1, i.e. the core set of object types (such as activities, agents, and prerequisite relations) that can be used to describe the basic elements of any process. The document also describes a framework for extending the core set of object types to include additional information needed in specific applications. These extended descriptions are exchanged in such a way that the common

The Process Interchange Format and Framework
This document provides the speci®cation of the Process Interchange Format (PIF) version 1.2. The goal of this work is to develop an interchange format to help automatically exchange process descriptions among a wide variety of business process modelling and support systems such as work ̄ow software, ̄ow charting tools, planners, process simulation systems and process repositories. Instead of hav...
متن کاملA PIF Implementation for TCAD Purposes
The implementation of the Profile Interchange Format (PIF) for Technology CAD (TCAD) purposes is demonstrated. An application program interface for use with process and device simulation tools coded in FORTRAN, C and LISP is presented, capable of performing convenient, fast and flexible access to an extendable binary data format which fulfills todays and future needs for physical and logical TC...
متن کاملApplying the Process Interchange Format (PIF) to a Supply Chain Process Interoperability Scenario
The goal of the PIF Project is to develop an interchange format to help automatically exchange process descriptions among a wide variety of business process modelling and support systems such as workflow software, flow charting tools, process simulation systems, and process repositories. As an example of such an exchange, a demonstration scenario has been created which describes the use of PIF ...
متن کاملThe Round Trip Problem : A Solution for the Process Handbook
This thesis addresses a problem which arises when different computer systems attempt to share data through an interchange format. Let us suppose that the format has a provision for storing system-specific data. After one system exports a file in this format, a second system importing the file may find it inconvenient or impossible to accommodate data specific to the first. While this loss of in...
متن کاملVerification of Businessprocesses for a Correspondencehandling Center Using Ccs 0
In this research paper we develop a translation of business processes given in the process interchange format (PIF) to the calculus of communicating systems (CCS). Then we show how to verify properties such as deadlocks, livelocks, safety-and liveness properties. We demonstrate our results using examples taken from a scenario in work distribution in Correspondence Handling Centres. 1. INTRODUCT...
