Bridging Workflow and Collaboration Tools
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents our research efforts towards the understanding, design and implementation of a technological framework that we classify as “augmented work environments”. These efforts are centered around the specific goal of building bridges between computational support for formal processes in organizational work and computational support for interactive and informal processes. The concepts, designs, prototypes and experiments that are reported in the paper were mostly produced in the scope of the ORCHESTRA project (Organizational Change, Evolution, STRucturing and Awareness).

Dynamic configuration and collaborative scheduling in supply chains based on scalable multi-agent architecture
Due to diversified and frequently changing demands from customers, technological advances and global competition, manufacturers rely on collaboration with their business partners to share costs, risks and expertise. How to take advantage of advancement of technologies to effectively support operations and create competitive advantage is critical for manufacturers to survive. To respond to these...
متن کاملSupporting collaboration in air traffic control through flight contracts
Research on user interaction on air traffic control can lead to dealing with new air traffic management (ATM) concepts. That is especially the case for research on collaboration tools between controllers. Focusing on collaborations quickly shows ATM as a workflow, that is an information-based process where many different actors interact in succession with the same pieces of information. In this...
متن کاملAn Architecture for Bridging OO and Business Process Modeling
Workflow systems and object-oriented technology have undoubtedly been some of the most important domains of interest of information technology over the past decade. Both domains however, have largely evolved independently, and not much research can be found in which workflow modelling principles and concepts have been applied to OO systems development or vice versa. In this paper we show how th...
متن کاملA Formal Verification Approach to Process Modelling and Composition
Process modelling is a design approach where a system or procedure is decomposed in a number of abstract, independent, but connected processes, and then recomposed into a well-defined workflow specification. Research in formal verification, for its part, and theorem proving in particular, is focused on the rigorous verification of system properties using logical proof. This thesis introduces a ...
متن کاملCollaboration Policies: Access Control Management in Decentralized Heterogeneous Workflows
Service-oriented computing promotes collaboration by defining the standards layer that allows compatibility between disparate domains. Workflows, by taking advantage of the serviceoriented framework, provide the necessary tools to harness services in order to tackle complicated problems. As a result, a service is no longer exposed to a small pre-determined homogeneous pool of users; instead it ...
