1 Variability in Artifact-Centric BPM The Hetero-Homogeneous Approach Christoph Schütz, Michael Schrefl

2 Overview Introduction Multilevel Business Process (Model) Variability in the Large: Hierarchies of Process Models Variability in the Small: Hierarchies within Levels Related Work Summary and Future Work 2

3 Introduction Artifact-Centric Process Modeling Focus on the business objects (artifacts) Data model Life cycle model Process Variability Different business situations demand different variants of the same process model Rigidity vs. flexibility 3

4 Multilevel Business Process Companies are (predominantly) hierarchical organizations Different hierarchical levels l have different processes These processes are interdependent 4

5 Multilevel Business Process Model Multilevel Business Artifact (MBA) Artifact-centric modeling of multilevel business processes Data and life cycle models Class/object duality 5

6 Multilevel Business Artifact (MBA) An MBA has several abstraction ti levels l 6

7 Multilevel Business Artifact (MBA) Each level has a class These classes are in an aggregation relationship Multilevel Object (Neumayr 2009) 7

8 Multilevel Business Artifact (MBA) 8

9 Multilevel Business Artifact (MBA) An MBA instantiates the class of its single top levell 9

10 Multilevel Business Artifact (MBA) 10

11 Multilevel Business Artifact (MBA) Each class has methods which h change the data 11

12 Multilevel Business Artifact (MBA) Some methods may only be called in a pre-defined d order or when the object is in a particular state. 12

13 Multilevel Business Artifact (MBA) The life cycle models of the different levels l are interdependent Pre- and postconditions link the different levels Multilevel predicates as syntax macros for OCL 13

21 Multilevel Business Artifact (MBA) post: newdescendantat- LevelSatisfies (<rental>, rentalid, id, =) 21

22 Multilevel Business Artifact (MBA) post: self.descendants(<rental>) d t l ->exists( o o.oclisnew() and o.rentalid = id) 22

23 Hierarchies of Multilevel Process Models VARIABILITY IN THE LARGE 23

24 Multilevel Concretization Incremental evolution of multilevel processes using concretization An MBA may be the concretization of another MBA The concretization may specialize classes, extend and refine the life cycle models, and introduce new abstraction levels The concretization represents a sub-hierarchy 24

25 Multilevel Concretization Multilevel concretization determines the membership to an aggregate A concretization is defined at a more specific level 25

26 Multilevel Concretization The classes defined by a concretization are specializations Observation-consistent specialization (Schrefl & Stumptner 2002) 26

27 Multilevel Concretization Pre- and postconditions must be at least as strong as in the more general model 27

28 Hierarchies of Process Models within Levels VARIABILITY IN THE SMALL 28

33 Related Work Powertypes Partitioned Type + Powertype A level of an MBA may act both as partitioned type and powertype In an MBA s level l hierarchy, h a parent level l is the powertype of the child level 33

35 Summary and Future Work Tradeoff between rigidity of hierarchical organization and flexibility Homogeneous model, interspersed with heterogeneities in well-defined sub-hierarchies Future work: Integration of hetero-homogeneous approach into existing modeling languages and tools (e.g., guard-stage-milestone) Business process intelligence and MBAs (Hetero-Homogeneous Process Warehouse) 35
