摘要:
An initiative object corresponding to an organization decision to explore a topic is defined, and a first goal definition and a first skills definition for the initiative object are defined. A project object corresponding to a project undertaken by the organization is defined, the project associated with exploring the topic, and a second goal definition and a second skills definition for the project object are defined. Employees are searched in an employee skills database using at least one of the first or second skills definitions, and assigned to the initiative object and to the project object, wherein the project object, but not the initiative object, affects employee availability. Upon closing the initiative object or project object, a skills record is updated using the first or second skills definitions; and upon closing the initiative object or project object, a performance record is updated using the first or second goal definitions.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for implementing a software architecture design for a software application implementing data migration. The application is structured as multiple process components interacting with each other through service interfaces, and multiple service operations, each being implemented for a respective process component. The process components include a Product Property Management process component, a Production Model Management process component, a Business Partner Data Management process component, a Product Data Maintenance process component, an Installed Base Data Management process component, a Price Master Data Management process component, an Identity Management process component, an Engineering Change Processing process component, a Migration Data Dispatching process component, and several other process components.
摘要:
A computer-implemented method for managing change of sets of processing information that describe a process flow includes receiving a first activity description describing a first activity for performing a process flow, receiving a first formula description describing a first input and an output of the process flow, receiving a second formula description describing a second input and the same output of the process flow, and associating the first activity description with one of the first formula description and the second formula description.
摘要:
A method for describing a process flow includes receiving a first root-independent building block and a second root-independent building block, receiving assembly instructions for assembling the first building block and the second building block to describe the process flow, and linking the first building block to the second building block in accordance with the assembly instructions. The first building block describes a first activity and a second building block describes a second activity. The first activity and the second activity correspond to portions of the process flow.

Among other disclosed subject matter, a computer-implemented method for evaluating total cost of ownership (TCO) of a system includes obtaining reference values associated with respective aspects of a TCO measurement model. The TCO measurement model is configured for use in measuring TCO, the reference values reflecting a reference TCO determined for a reference system. The method includes mapping actual expenses to the TCO measurement model, the actual expenses identified as associated with a system whose TCO is to be evaluated. The method includes performing an analysis that includes at least comparing the actual expenses to the reference values according to the mapping. The method includes recording a result of the analysis that indicates at least whether the TCO of the system differs from the reference TCO.
摘要:
A computer system is provided for modeling the structure of an enterprise comprising a first class of objects. An object of the class may represent an organizational unit of the enterprise. The class may comprise a method for assigning and/or deassigning to an object of the class at least one attribute from at least five types of attributes comprising: a first type describing a work to be performed by the unit; a second type describing a legal entity, which the unit represents; a third type describing a disciplinary or line management properties of the unit; a fourth type describing a financial responsibility of the unit; and a fifth type describing a location, which the unit represents. The system may further include means for assigning and/or deassigning to an object of said class at least one property depending on the assigned attribute.

摘要:
Methods, systems and apparatus, including computer program products, for behavior-based adaptation of one or more computer systems. A method in accordance with the invention includes receiving rules that specify data of the computer system to be recorded and data of the computer system to be summarized for evaluation. The method includes recording data as specified by the rules. The method includes performing an evaluation of the data recorded. The evaluation includes identifying a change to the computer system and determining whether the change will increase the efficiency of the computer system. The method includes, when the evaluation indicates that the change will increase the efficiency of the computer system, proposing the change.
摘要:
Method and apparatus, including computer program product for customizing a process flow. The product includes instructions to cause a processor to receive a process flow description, receive a first resource description from a first remote system, customize the process flow description to the first resource description, receive a second resource description from a second remote system, and customize the process flow description to the second resource description. The process flow description describes a process flow. The first resource description describes resources deployable by the first remote system and the second resource description describes resources deployable by the second remote system. The product is tangibly stored on machine readable media.
