It achieves this by covering a wide range of topics, both introductory and advanced, illustrated through and grounded in the YAWL (Yet Another Workflow Language) language and corresponding open-source support environment. Their study provides the reader with a deep, timeless, and vendor-independent understanding of the essential ingredients of what constitutes modern business process automation.While the field of BPM is highly dynamic through the proposal of new standards and the introduction of new tools and technology, its fundamentals are relatively stable and their rigorous study will greatly assist the reader to deal with the relentless onslaught of the ""latest and greatest"".Topics covered include:The fundamentals of business process modeling, including workflow patterns,An in-depth treatment of the notion of flexibility, including how to deal with on-the-fly change, unexpected exceptions, and constraint-based processes,Technological aspects of a modern BPM environment, including service-oriented architecture, process design environment, process engine, resource handler and other support services,A comparative insight into current approaches to business process modeling execution such as BPMN, EPCs, BPEL, jBPM, OpenWFE, and Enhydra Shark,Process mining, verification, integration and configuration,Case studies in health care and screen business.Due to its accessible presentation and the inclusion of exercises, the book is eminently suitable for use in tertiary education, both at the undergraduate and the postgraduate level, for students in computer science and information systems. The book is unique in how it brings and binds together such a varied and comprehensive collection of topics related to the life-cycle of business processes. Therefore, BPM researchers and practitioners may also find this a valuable resource." |
