摘要： A system and method for monitoring behavior patterns which effectively distinguishes between alarming and non-alarming behavior patterns, includes at least one sensor for detecting behavior patterns, a memory device coupled to the sensor, for storing standard behavior patterns, and a processor, coupled to the memory device, for comparing standard behavior patterns with detected behavior patterns, and causing a response to be activated when standard behavior patterns and detected behavior patterns have a predetermined relationship.

摘要： A method s for specifying and implementing automation of business processes where the specification is independently manipulable by both the business process owner and technical implementers, and resulting technical elements can be tested for compliance with every detail in the specification. The method creates a single shared model suitable for understanding and execution in both the business and technical domains by focusing on the specification problem in the area of business automation. The solution to the specification problem lies in Information, Function, Flow (IFF or IF2) factorization of business processes. Models of the business are constructed by way of the IF2 modeling methodology. This is a complete model which includes, by construction, external specifications of each task included in the business model. The modularization problem is solved by preserving the partitioning of the system created in the business model. The automation system implements concrete modules that uniquely and directly correspond to particular elements whose external specification is determined by the business model.

摘要翻译： 用于指定和实施业务流程自动化的方法，其中规范由业务流程所有者和技术实现者独立地操纵，并且所得到的技术元素可以被测试以符合说明书中的每个细节。 该方法通过专注于业务自动化领域的规范问题，创建了适用于业务和技术领域的理解和执行的单一共享模型。 规范问题的解决方案在于业务流程的信息，功能，流程（IFF或IF <2>）因式分解。 业务模型通过IF <2>建模方法构建。 这是一个完整的模型，其中包括构建业务模型中包含的每个任务的外部规范。 通过保留业务模型中创建的系统的分区来解决模块化问题。 自动化系统实现具体模块，其唯一且直接对应于外部规范由业务模型确定的特定元素。
