Towards Context Aware Business Process Modelling
نویسندگان
چکیده
For surviving in their complex and dynamic environments, organisations should be adaptable and interoperable with these environments. Stakeholders’ expectations change unpredictably and are often dependent on the contextual information. A context sensitive BP model is able to adapt the execution of the instances to the changing contexts and then to the stakeholders’ requirements. Our objective is to overcome the challenging issues related to the contextual factors. To this end, we discuss in this paper the relevance of context awareness for the adequate design of business processes (BP) and present a new approach for modelling BP that supports the description of the execution context.

COMPRO: A Methodological Approach for Business Process Contextualisation
Context-awareness has emerged as a new perspective for business process modelling. Business processes are strongly influenced by context, the environment where they are executed, and thus context should not be ignored when modelling them. This calls for new approaches that facilitate contextualisation, i.e. identification and representation of the way context influences a business process. In a...
متن کاملModelling context-aware RBAC models for mobile business processes
In a mobile computing environment, distributed business processes are executed in varying contexts. Context-aware access control mechanisms help to protect sensitive data and services in mobile application scenarios. Context constraints are a means to consider context information in access control decisions. In this paper, we integrate context constraints with process-related role-based access ...
متن کاملA Novel Approach to Modeling Context-Aware and Social Collaboration Processes
Companies strive to retain the knowledge about their business processes by modelling them. However, non-routine people-intensive processes, such as distributed collaboration, are hard to model due to their unpredictable nature. Often such processes involve advanced activities, such as discovery of socially coherent teams or unbiased experts, or complex coordination towards reaching a consensus....
متن کاملTowards A Context-Aware Analysis Of Business Process Performance
Context-aware business process management is moving into the focus of research interest. Since the environment is changing continuously, these changes influence business processes. Thus, the respective context has to be considered while analysing the performance of business processes. This paper presents a new methodological approach to identify the effect of contextual factors on business proc...
متن کاملTowards Context-aware Workflows
Context-aware applications adapt their behavior based on changes of the physical world, which is often obtained with a huge amount of sensors. Thus, the development of such applications is cumbersome, in particular the implementation of their often complex control flow. To ease the development of context-aware applications we present the concept of context-aware workflows. Thereafter we present...
