Business Process Management (WS 2009/10)

Prof. Dr. Mathias Weske

The lecture introduces advanced topics in Business Process Management (BPM). In particular, the formal side of BPM is investigated. In the first part, we focus on the generic formalization aspects including syntax and semantics of process languages. Based thereon, basic notions for formal analysis of process models are investigated. Finally, a set of existing techniques for analyzing concrete properties is introduced.

Oryx Workshop

The Oryx workshop gives a comprehensive overview of the fundamentals of the extensible, web-based modeling platform Oryx that consists of a model editor and a repository to store and manage models. The presentation gives insight into the history and the intentions to develop a platform that supports research in modeling, particularly process modeling. After introducing the platform and its software architecture, the presenter focuses on extending the editor with new modeling languages through stencil sets, and new functionality through plugins. Finally, a brief insight into the structure of the project is given as a starting point to implement new features.
