Interconnecting Workflows Using Services: An Approach for "Case Transfer" with Centralized Control
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we are interested in structured cooperation based on workflow (WF). The current work proposes an approach based on services for WF interconnection particularly obeying to the “case transfer” architecture. This late defines a form of cooperation in Inter-Organizational WF involving a range of partners with common business goals, exercising the same business. All partners share the same WF model implemented at each location and a transfer policy to manage transfer for process instances from one partner to another. By the use of services, our goal is to obtain IOWF models flexible enough so they remain easily adaptable to support process changes. The proposed approach is based on centralized control for transfers.

Deploying Access Control in Distributed Workflow
Workflows are operational business processes. Workfow Management Systems (WFMS) are concerned with the control and coordination of these workflows. In recent years, there has been a trend to integrate WFMS in distributed inter-organizational systems. In this case malfunctioning of one WFMS can affect more than one organization, making the correct functioning of a WFMS a critical issue. Thus, an...
متن کاملA centralized privacy-preserving framework for online social networks
There are some critical privacy concerns in the current online social networks (OSNs). Users' information is disclosed to different entities that they were not supposed to access. Furthermore, the notion of friendship is inadequate in OSNs since the degree of social relationships between users dynamically changes over the time. Additionally, users may define similar privacy settings for their f...

متن کاملOptimally Distributing Interactions Between Composed Semantic Web Services
When information services are organized to provide some composed functionality, their interactions can be formally represented as workflows. Traditionally, workflows are executed by centralized engines that invoke the necessary services and collect results. If services are clustered (e.g., based on geographic criteria), locally routing intermediary results between services in the same cluster c...
متن کاملTowards self-management of distributed data-driven workflows with QoS guarantees
Data-driven application workflows that leverage compute capabilities and hosted services near the network edge can support latency-sensitive and critical applications in emerging areas such as Internet of Things (IoT) and smart infrastructure. However, distributed instantiation and execution of these workflows using resources across service providers and data centers can be challenging. We pres...
