摘要:
A system for managing resources and business processes includes a plurality of resource objects stored in a resource object database. Each resource object represents a corresponding resource for use by a business process. Each of the plurality of resource objects includes data pertaining to a state of availability of the corresponding resource.

Execution of flexible workflows using artifacts is described. A workflow execution engine is configured to instantiate a process execution (PE) artifact. The PE artifact includes one or more transitions. The workflow execution engine is further configured to execute the one or more transitions and determine if any of the one or more transitions are new or modified. The workflow execution engine is additionally configured to load and execute new or modified transitions, without reinstantiating the PE artifact, responsive to determining that at least one new or modified transitions exist.

The techniques provided herein include obtaining a model of an enterprise operation that specifies initiation and one or more evolution milestones of one or more business entities, formulating one or more performance metrics for the enterprise operation, wherein the one or more performance metrics are calculated from the one or more business entities, the one or more evolution milestones, and one or more relevant external events, and using the one or more business entities and one or more performance metrics to automatically create an executable performance monitoring model for the enterprise operation, wherein the executable performance monitoring model processes data in the one or more business entities, the one or more evolution milestones, and the one or more relevant external events to compute the one or more performance metrics for the enterprise operation.

Automomic business processes management solutions have capabilities to adapt themselves to changes in the business environment. These autonomic business solutions are built by wiring together autonomic solution components called BPbots (Business Process robots). BPbots are granular solution components representing an aspect of a business process. In general, BPbots consist of two parts, an execution module and a managerial module. The execution module represents the standard, non-autonomic solution component, such as a standard process flow model describing the long-running flow or business adapter describing the communication of the solution with service providers (such as applications). The managerial module is responsible for the autonomic behavior of the BPbot. The managerial component has the ability to monitor the execution module, analyze the performance, plan new, more appropriate execution patterns and change the behavior of the execution module according to the new plan.

An Enterprise Management Portfolio Hub allows a user to perform enterprise portfolio management activities from a single point of control. EPMH relates information, analysis, display and control based on the organizing concept of the business components that comprise the CBM map of the enterprise by collecting portfolio information from existing portfolio management tools and generating a portfolio model. It allows the user to interact with or access information from various Portfolio Management applications and services through the portfolio model. EPMH supports evaluative techniques that can be used to identify areas for business transformation and to generate transition plans.
摘要:
A method and system are described for using business artifacts to identify elements of a component business model. Artifacts operated upon by the business are first identified, and then used to analyze the business into business operations. This is done by identifying every business activity that acts on an artifact, creating directed graphs for the business activities, and decomposing the directed graphs into sub-graphs, each sub-graph representing a business operation and being annotated by a verb expression, the annotated sub-graph representing a business service. The business services are then clustered into non-overlapping components, using common affinities reflected in the verb expressions, and organized by partitioning into internal and external operations, exposing a business service for each external operation. The components are then clustered into non-overlapping business competencies, and arranged by accountability level.
摘要:
A method of modeling a service-oriented business including identifying a business service to provide, creating its business specification which specifies business requirements for the provided service, the business specification of a service, and service management terms, storing the business specification for the provided service in a service catalog, creating and reviewing its business process model, the business process model providing a sequence of business tasks in the business process, analyzing each of the business tasks to determine which of the business tasks should be accomplished via required service, process modeling each of the business tasks that are not service tasks, storing a process model for each of the business tasks that are not service tasks in a operation model repository, creating a business specification for each required service and storing the business specification for each of the required services in a repository of business specifications of required services.
摘要:
A method and system for enterprise monitoring maps monitor events to elements of a component business model of the enterprise and displays the mapped events using the component business model. Rules are used to determine whether events captured from a monitor source are monitor events. An enterprise monitor metamodel linking monitor artifacts and elements of a component business model is used to annotate monitor events with data from the component business model of the enterprise.
