Integration Service

In the last decade, the Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) market has been enormously raised, and the major vendors are trying to adapt their software to suit it. One important factor to be taken into consideration in such context is the support of internal and external business process integration. Service-oriented systems are offering reasonable business process integration support. However, they lack semantic definition of their service interfaces. The research presented in this chapter tries to solve this issue by proposing a lightweight semantic-enabled enterprise service-oriented framework where services can be semantically grouped based on the domains to which they belong. The proposed framework is merging both business processes and service orientation concepts to provide an agile and flexible enterprise solution that utilizes reusability, better quality, and faster time-to-market factors. This chapter will illustrate this framework, its goals, and outcomes, together with demonstration of a business case built on top of it.

Aiming at the disadvantages like the enterprise application system scalability, integration and interoperability is not strong, neglecting the business process integration, the integration platform lacks flexibility and adaptability, based on service oriented and workflow technology system, Service-oriented and for integration of foundation, enterprise application integration system solutions were proposed. To realize loosely coupled, business process integration, high integration and interoperability strong application integration system we need discuss enterprise application integration the architecture and hierarchical model.

La Integración de Procesos de Negocio (Business Process Integration – BPI), utiliza una gran cantidad de servicios distribuidos, por lo que la comunicación entre estos servicios es clave para el buen funcionamiento del sistema. En este modelo de cooperación, la arquitectura Cliente-Servidor tradicional ya no es suficiente para la implementación de soluciones que soporten comunicación entre aplicaciones distribuidas, independientemente de la plataforma y del lenguaje de programación que utilizan estas aplicaciones. Por su parte, las Arquitecturas Orientadas a Servicios (Service Oriented Architectures - SOA) proveen una estructura que posibilita el modelado de procesos y conexiones interorganizacionales. Mientras que la Gestión de Procesos de Negocio (Business Process Management - BPM) es el conjunto de sistemas de software, herramientas y metodologías para gestionar tales requerimientos y, el Lenguaje de Ejecución de Procesos de Negocio (Business Process Execution Language - BPEL), es un lenguaje de orquestación de servicios que permite definir la forma en que cooperan entre sí los Servicios Web para alcanzar la lógica de negocio. En este escenario, existen buenas herramientas para asistir desde lo conceptual y desde lo práctico a la Integración de Procesos de Negocio aplicando Servicios Web. Entonces, la problemática se plantea al momento de vincular estas herramientas de manera apropiada para facilitar el proceso de definición e implementación de este tipo de sistemas y en particular, en el ámbito de las pequeñas y medianas empresas (PyMEs).En este trabajo se propone un modelo que hace posible el BPI mediante Servicios Web de una manera ágil y practica, facilitando su implementación. El mismo será aplicado metodológicamente a un Caso de Estudio en el dominio de las PyMEs, con el propósito de evaluar su eficiencia, evidenciar sus beneficios y hallar oportunidades de mejora.

Unstructured Information

Abstract Enterprise information architectures still do not deliver all the value that comes from integrating structured and unstructured information. Enterprise Content Management and Business Process Management were developed as autonomous disciplines. Thus, Enterprise Content Management still occurs without formally considering the business processes that generate and manipulate content, while Business Process Management initiatives arise without a documented treatment of materials produced by the processes. The non-integrated approach to these disciplines collaborates to reduce the potential benefits expected in Organizational Change Management programs. In such context, the article discusses the interrelation between Business Process Management and Enterprise Content Management, approaching from a historical view of these disciplines, their conceptual limits, technological support, and dialogues that would benefit both initiatives. The paper contributes to clarify a question still vague in the field of Information Management, which is how to integrate Business Process Management and Enterprise Content Management treating structured and unstructured information in a unified manner. It discusses how to approach this issue in a broad scope of IM by combining the concepts of Enterprise Content Management and Business Process Management. Based on a literature review, the paper analyzes and synthesizes experiences in Enterprise Content Management and Business Process Management acquired in the context of a project carried out in a Power Sector Company. The article reveals problems in separating approaches to Enterprise Content Management and Business Process Management. It shows the importance of an effort for integration and presents three instruments that promote the linkage of the two initiatives, approximating process offices and analysts’ information.

This paper presents a service-oriented After-sales services system in Mechanical Engineering Industry. Typical After-sales services include status tracking services by customers, customer services, assignors and assignees. Therefore, the proposed After-sales service tracking management system work in the progress from the case study is conducted. Our system can connect with other service-related systems, such as enterprise content management repository system and business process management system. The After-sales services system is developed by consulting and visiting the machine tools manufacturers.

Double Entry

Knowledge-intensive administration and service activity has features favouring a particular architectural approach to business process integration. The approach is based on a process metamodel that extends the familiar input-process-output schema, and embodies the principle that the essential WHAT of a process is prior to any empirical and/or physical HOW. A structure of interrelated concepts can be derived from the metamodel. These can be used at logical level to define and analyze processes. They can also be implemented at a physical level—as an achievable and ideal integrated process architecture, or as a continuum of incremental control and integration improvements. Overall, the approach is to process what double entry is to accounting and the relational model is to data.
