Theory for Designing Business-Process based on the Modality of Social Systems

该项目旨在开发一种侧重于社会制度模式的业务流程模型设计方法。如果没有“社会制度模式”的概念，就不能讨论社会现象的基本动态，即购买个人收益等局部利润导致全球下降。作为这种社会系统的一个适当的例子，我们将重点放在业务流程上，并尝试构建一种基于其形态来设计此类流程的方法。四年的研究活动总结如下：[理论]目标系统的主要特征是它们的基本动态不受“系统内因果关系”的支配，而受“与系统环境的平衡”支配(“人工智能与社会”，22(2)101/112)。说到平衡，生态系统是教科书。我们的项目从研究项目开始就试图引入生态系统的概念，并开发了基于补充性…的事件发生机制更合理的排序/无序方案。我们展示了一种利用这种机制来设计系统的方法(《高级计算智能和智能信息杂志》，11(7)867/874)。[方法]我们提出了一种检测和解决业务流程各部分之间冲突的方法(PROC。KES-IIMSS‘08，T.Hattori et.等，将模态编码成扩展的Petri网，用于分析离散事件业务流程)。它们是离散的和去中心化的，并通过时间和道义的方式相互作用。该方法被扩展到设计构件(Trans.在SICE上，E3(1)，40/48)。[实践]业务流程意味着其中人、构件及其环境之间的交互是必不可少的系统。作为展示这些互动的领域之一，包容性设计研讨会前景看好。我们每个月都举办这样的研讨会，实际上阐明了在制定社会的几个规模中的现象。通过筹备和举办研讨会，分析了研讨会(小型)的组织者、研讨会(中型)的参与者和设计文物(大型)的使用者。分析结果计划很快报告。较少

This project aimed to develop a method for designing business process model focusing on the modalities of social systems. The basic dynamics of social phenomena, where the purchasing local profit such as personal gain yields global declines, cannot be discussed without the notion of "modalities of social systems." As an appropriate example of such a social systems, we focused on business processes and tried to construct a method for designing such processes based on their modalities. The research activities for four years are summarized as follows ;[Theory] The main feature of the target systems is that their basic dynamics am not governed by "causalities within a system" but by 'balances with the environment of a system" (AI & Society, 22(2) 101/112). Speaking of balancing, ecological systems are textbooks. Our project was trying to introduce notions of ecological systems from the beginning of the research project, and has developed an event emergence mechanisms based on a complementa … More ry scheme of ordering/disordering. We showed a way for utilizing this mechanism to designing systems (Journal of Advanced Computational Intelligence and Intelligent Information, 11(7)867/874).[Method] We have proposed a method for detecting and resolving conflicts among sectors of a business process (Proc. of KES-IIMSS '08, T. Hattori, et. al., Encoding Modalities into Extended Petri Net for Analyzing Discrete Event Business Process). They are discrete and decenterlized, and interact with each other mediated by temporal and deontic modalities. This method was extended for designing artifacts (Trans. on the SICE, E3(1), 40/48).[Practice] Business processes imply the systems where the interactions among human, artifacts and their environment are essential. As one of the field where those interactions are exposed, Inclusive Design Workshop is promising. We have been holding such workshops every month, and practically elucidated phenomena in formulating society in several sizes. Through preparing and holding workshops, organizers of a workshop (small size), participants of a workshop (middle seize), and users of designed artifacts (large size) were analyzed. The result of analysis is planning to be reported soon. Less
