Abstract

Modern enterprise organisations rely on dynamic processes. Generally these processes cannot be modelled once and executed repeatedly without change. Enterprise processes execution may evolve unpredictably according to situations that cannot always be prescribed. However, no mechanism exists to ensure an updated process does not violate any compliance requirements. This paper presents a novel enterprise system architecture to combine the techniques of adaptive and compliance workflow solutions and adopting the Business Process Modelling Notation (BPMN) standards. The proposed Adaptive and Compliance Workflow Management System (ACWfMS) enables the development of a workflow management tool to create or update a standard and user-defined model. It automatically validates compliance by comparing a user-defined model against a standard model, and in case of violations, visual feedback is presented to the user. In addition, the architecture facilitates process migration to manage instances with modified definition. An example application of a postgraduate research process is discussed.

一种处理过程适应性与遵从性的新型工作流管理系统

现代企业组织依赖于动态过程。一般来说，这些流程不可能建模一次，然后不加更改地重复执行。企业流程执行可能会根据不能总是规定的情况而不可预测地发展。但是，不存在任何机制来确保更新的流程不违反任何遵从性需求。本文提出了一种新的企业系统架构，该架构结合了自适应和遵从性工作流解决方案技术，并采用了业务流程建模符号(BPMN)标准。提出的适应性和遵从性工作流管理系统(ACWfMS)使工作流管理工具的开发能够创建或更新标准和用户定义的模型。它通过将用户定义的模型与标准模型进行比较来自动验证合规性，并且在违反的情况下，将可视反馈呈现给用户。此外，该体系结构促进了流程迁移，从而管理具有修改定义的实例。讨论了研究生研究过程的一个应用实例。
