Modeling Business Diagnosis with Dynamic Workflow Construction

Abstract

Mapping workflow (WF) modeling with real-life business process management has become key problem on today's service-based economy. Such real time delivery would give them a competitive lead, and is considered an asset on most scenarios. For the most part, small and medium sized businesses lack the resources to achieve this goal. We propose that a first step to achieving the desired realism is to build global knowledge on businesses. This may be achieved through interactive diagnosing of small and medium sized companies. Such diagnosis must be equivalent to the business it wants to model. For this purpose, we propose a model for dynamic construction of a workflow (DCW), describes the diagnosis process as a workflow that is built dynamically as an entrepreneur answers an online questionnaire. We propose that semantic actions within context-free grammars will enable the dynamic construction process. The model serves as the foundation for true interdisciplinary work
