We use the term workflow to describe a business process that is executed and managed automatically by a computer system. The definition usually includes all the tasks, tools, procedures, and organizations involved, as well. A workflow management system (WfMS) is an application that uses a computer representation of the workflow logic to define, manage, and execute the process.1 Consider the wor...

For a Virtual Learning Environment a Digital Pedagogy is required, otherwise learning will be the same as usual with the only difference being, that reading and writing will be on the computer, and therefore the opportunity to use the Computer Science and Technology to empower the student’s learning is lost. The Digital Pedagogy needs to be Multi-Referential, which means that different knowledg...

This paper presents an effort to increase the value gained from process modelling activities in an organisation, both on a project and an organisational level. The main result of this effort is a framework to facilitate awareness of, communication about, and coordination of modelling initiatives between stakeholders and within and across projects, over time. The current version of the framework...

The subject of this study is systems for detection and identification (D&I) explosive ordnance (EO). aim to develop a concept, general structure, models robotic-biological system D&I EO (RBS-D&I). objectives are as follows: 1) classify mobile suggest concept RBS-D&I; 2) the structure RBS-D&I consisting robotic (flying ground) biological subsystems; 3) including automaton, hi...

In previously reported work, the Health Informatics for Research, Education and Service (HiRES) team at St. Mary's Hospital Center (SMHC) presented the design for an electronic medical record (EMR) that would address the unsatisfied needs of the teaching, research and service mandates of the post graduate residency program. The design takes an existing commercial EMR product and adapts it to th...

Enterprise Modeling has emerged in an attempt to take a more holistic view of organizations and today it is widely used to describe all activities of modeling any pertinent aspect of an organization’s structure and operation in order to improve or reposition selected parts of the organization. Over the last decade, typical applications of Enterprise Modeling were seen in the fields of Business ...

Genomic information provides the first stage in understanding the instructions for the synthesis of all of life's molecular machines and the systems needed to control and operate them. The interaction among biological, physical and computing sciences has provided the bases for the creation of a great number of bioinformatic tools [1]. Our laboratory uses the multicellular microorganism Trichode...

Potentially one of the most significant opportunities for enterprise integration is the recent development and advancement of agent based systems. However, before agents can be used as generic building blocks, a methodology must be established for the development of these systems. This methodology must encompass modelling, design, and implementation of the systems. This paper outlines a methodo...
