LS/ABPM - an agent-powered suite for goal-oriented autonomic BPM
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we shortly describe the Living Systems Autonomic Business Process Management (LS/ABPM) software product. LS/ABPM is an integrated environment, based on J2EE, Eclipse and Agent Technology, to support agile Business Process Management through goal-oriented process modeling, autonomic business process navigation and a multi-layer extensible architecture. The product comprises a Process Development Suite, to model, execute and test business processes, and a Process Runtime Suite, to run, manage and control business process instances in a production environment. The innovation of LS/ABPM with respect to common BPM technologies lies both in the GO-BPMN modeling language, which enhances the standard BPMN with goal and plan structures and direct executability, and in the execution engine, which leverages the LS/TS multi-agent system platform to provide goaloriented (BDI) process execution, runtime modifiability of process models for running instances and multi-instance cooperation and autonomic control.
