چکیده
The paper presents an architecture of a Petri net based framework for modelling and control of workflow processes. It focuses on the PNEditor module and briefly discusses workflow engine based on the models designed using the PNEditor. Then the paper describes method of synthesis Separating feasible places and an algorithm for reducing the number of places in the resulting Petri net.

متن کاملPetri net-based process monitoring: a workflow management system for process modelling and monitoring
Nowadays business process management is becoming a fundamental piece in many industrial processes. To manage the evolution and the interactions of the business actions it is important to accurately model the steps to follow and the resources needed by a process. Workflows provide a way of describing the order of execution and the dependencies between the constituting activities of business proc...
متن کاملModelling and Performance Analysis of Workflow Management Systems Using Timed Hierarchical Coloured Petri Nets
In this paper a modelling methodology for workflow management systems based on coloured Petri nets is proposed. Using an integration method, processes and resources are modelled at the same abstraction level. A process is decomposed into task structures, whilst human resources are considered at role level. Activity based costing is combined with classical temporal analysis of workflow. The suit...
متن کاملComponent-Based Modelling of Organisational Resources Using Coloured Petri Nets
Collaborative software applications such as workflow management systems require a clear separation between process model and resource model. The process model realises the partial order of business processes while the organisation model provides the structure of the resources to be utilised. In this paper, we propose a CPN-based framework for modelling organisational functioning units. The mode...

Workflow systems bring a new technology available to organisations enabling them to support the computerised automation of their business processes. Regardless of full support from information technology, most business processes rely considerably on the human resources of the organisation. Within a workflow management system, the correct modelling of human resources is an important issue affect...
