Research paper thumbnail of Existing and future standards for event-driven business process management

Proceedings of the Third ACM International Conference on Distributed Event-Based Systems - DEBS '09, 2009

... Event Architecture for Logistics (NEAL) is to support enterprises within the logistics domain... more ... Event Architecture for Logistics (NEAL) is to support enterprises within the logistics domain in creating event driven systems for aligning their business and IT. The idea is to provide a basic set of events to assist in designing and implementing ED-BPM applications. ...

Business processes must become agile, respond to changes in the business environment in a timely ... more Business processes must become agile, respond to changes in the business environment in a timely manner and quickly adapt themselves to new conditions. Event-Driven Business Process Management (ED-BPM) is an enhancement of Business Process Management (BPM) by concepts of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Complex Event Processing (CEP). The most important enhancement is the integration of services accessible via the Internet that fire events into global event clouds. The events can be processed by event processing platforms for aggregating the information into higher value complex business events. These events can be modeled in a business process execution language within a process driven Business Process Management System (BPMS) to trigger changes in control flow of a process or start other services. A reference model and a reference architecture for ED-BPM are presented, based on the NEXOF Reference Architecture. A taxonomy for classifying changes to process flow is proposed. Enhancements have to be applied to the existing standards in the BPM field, including both the design-time and the runtime. A scenario from the banking domain illustrates the main concepts and principles.
