Study on Interworkflow Support System in Autonomous Decentralized Computer Environment

工作流管理系统被引入到许多组织中，以实现业务流程的自动化。将工作流管理系统引入组织的下一步是通过将各个组织中已有的工作流过程互连起来，实现多个组织之间的业务过程。我们称之为Interworkflow。另一方面，随着互联网和万维网的发展，已经为基于网络的应用系统准备了企业对企业的电子商务基础设施。然后，需要实现任何规模的组织之间的互联。在未来，预计企业对企业电子商务的融合使大量的利益相关方能够提供各种服务。电子商务过程能够通过与多个工作流管理系统的协作来建模。但是，目前的单体式工作流管理系统不能满足组织间的适应性协作，因此，本文提出了一种基于工作流管理系统的工作流管理系统， ...更多信息 墨克认为，实现各组织间快速灵活互联的某些机制很重要。我们设计了建议的支持机制的基础上的思想，自治分散系统。自治分散系统没有像客户机-服务器系统那样的中心组件，由自治组件组成。在本研究中，我们提出了支持机制的概念，以实现组织之间的快速和灵活的互联，并描述了开发的原型系统，以确认其实现。这些支持机制通过增加、取消和修改等功能，实现了组织间快速、灵活的互连，从而实现了工作流的互通。我们实现了原型系统，提出了应用程序的业务消费者电子商务，使不断变化的服务供应商根据客户的要求。该原型系统表明能够处理客户需求的多样性，并通过支持机制提供动态协作。少

Workflow management systems are being introduced in many organizations to automate the business process. The next step for introducing workflow management system into organization is to realize the business process among multiple organizations by interconnecting the existing workflow process in each organization. We call it interworkflow. On the other hand, business-to-business electronic commerce infrastructure for web-based application systems has been prepared with the growth of the Internet and the World Wide Web. And then, the realization of interconnection among organizations in any scale is required. In the future, it is expected that fusion of business-to-business electronic commerce enable a large number of interested parties to provide various services. Electronic commerce processes are able to model by cooperation with multiple workflow management systems. But, the current monolithic workflow management systems can not fulfill adaptable cooperation in organizations.So, we th … More ink that some mechanisms for realizing rapid and flexible interconnection among organizations are important. We have designed the proposed support mechanism based on the idea of autonomous decentralized system. Autonomous decentralized system has no central component such as client-server system and consists of autonomy components. In this study, we propose the concept for support mechanism with realizing rapid and flexible interconnection among organizations and describe the developed prototype system to confirm its realization. These support mechanisms realize interworkflow by rapid and flexible interconnection among organizations by the feature of addition, cancellation and modification. We implemented prototype system that presents the application of business to consumer electronic commerce for enabling changing suppliers of services according to customer request. This prototype system indicates to be able to handle diversity of customer needs and make possible to provide dynamic cooperation by support mechanisms. Less
