Business process Execution: a contextual approach

Abstract

Companies are always in competition with each other, in order to provide appropriate services to internal and external users. Therefore, they must be always innovative in order to keep their place in the market. To do so, new technologies come to help them in this race, by proposing solutions to facilitate the management of their business. Within this scope comes business process execution, which is a crucial step in the business process management life cycle., in this paper we present a new approach for business process execution that is context-awareness. We propose a SOA based architecture with multiple component that we find very important in business process execution and taking into account the context. To validate our approach, we propose a concrete case study about transport system to provide a proof of the applicability as well as the utility of the approach.
