Internet of Things Meets Business Process Management
This book questions the extent to which the Internet of Things (IoT) and business process management (BPM) paradigms can be combined. The authors discuss emerging challenges and intersections from a research and practitioner's perspective in terms of complex software systems development and process mining methods. The authors demonstrate that while the IoT and BPM have been regarded as separate topics in research and in practice, they strongly believe that, on the one hand, the management of IoT applications will greatly benefit from BPM concepts, methods, and technologies. And on the other hand, the IoT poses challenges that will require enhancements and extensions of the current state of the art in the BPM field. Topics explored include behavior-centered design of IoT systems, event-log granularity for IoT process mining, process mining on sensor location event data, and process mining and robotics, among others. The book pertains to researchers, academics, and professionals working in the intersection of IoT and BPM.
Business Process Management
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Business Process Management, BPM 2011, held in Clermont-Ferrand, France, in August/September 2011. The volume contains 22 revised full research papers carefully reviewed and selected from 157 submissions, as well as 5 industrial track papers and abstracts of three invited talkes. The papers address innovative research of highest quality from computer science, management information science, service-oriented computing, and technology management.
The Art of Structuring
Structuring, or, as it is referred to in the title of this book, the art of structuring, is one of the core elements in the discipline of Information Systems. While the world is becoming increasingly complex, and a growing number of disciplines are evolving to help make it a better place, structure is what is needed in order to understand and combine the various perspectives and approaches involved. Structure is the essential component that allows us to bridge the gaps between these different worlds, and offers a medium for communication and exchange. The contributions in this book build these bridges, which are vital in order to communicate between different worlds of thought and methodology – be it between Information Systems (IS) research and practice, or between IS research and other research disciplines. They describe how structuring can be and should be done so as to foster communication and collaboration. The topics covered reflect various layers of structure that can serve as bridges: models, processes, data, organizations, and technologies. In turn, these aspects are complemented by visionary outlooks on how structure influences the field.
Business Process Management Workshops
This book constitutes the refereed post-proceedings of six international workshops held in conjunction with the Third International Conference on Business Process Management, BPM 2005, in September 2005. The 41 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected. Among the issues addressed are fundamental process modeling, Web service choreography and orchestration, business process reference models, and business processes and services.
Process Modeling and Management for Healthcare
From the Foreword: "[This book] provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamental concepts in healthcare process management as well as some advanced topics in the cutting-edge research of the closely related areas. This book is ideal for graduate students and practitioners who want to build the foundations and develop novel contributions in healthcare process modeling and management." --Christopher Yang, Drexel University Process modeling and process management are traversal disciplines which have earned more and more relevance over the last two decades. Several research areas are involved within these disciplines, including database systems, database management, information systems, ERP,...
Handbook of Service Description
The Handbook of Service Description introduces an in-depth overview of service description efforts. The book also highlights the recent Unified Service Description Language (USDL) in detail and discusses its methods. The Handbook of Service Description is the normative scientific reference for the upcoming standardization of the Unified Service Description Language (USDL). Complete documentation is included. The Handbook of Service Description is designed for those working in the service science industry as a reference book. Advanced-level students focused on computer science, engineering and business will also find this book a valuable asset.
Tax Law and Digitization
Tax tech companies are rapidly gaining ground as global tax advisory firms, and are set to fundamentally change and revolutionize the way tax administrations, taxpayers, and their advisers interact, ushering in a much more efficient and effective integration of tax services into the processes used by both taxpayers and tax authorities. The distinguished contributors to this book clearly explain not only how tax law can be revised to promote digitization and speed up its implementation but also how to achieve better tax compliance and administration at a lower cost. The authors cover such aspects of this veritable paradigm shift in tax management as the following: how new technologies improve...
Conformance Checking
This book introduces readers to the field of conformance checking as a whole and outlines the fundamental relation between modelled and recorded behaviour. Conformance checking interrelates the modelled and recorded behaviour of a given process and provides techniques and methods for comparing and analysing observed instances of a process in the presence of a model, independent of the model’s origin. Its goal is to provide an overview of the essential techniques and methods in this field at an intuitive level, together with precise formalisations of its underlying principles. The book is divided into three parts, that are meant to cover different perspectives of the field of conformance ch...
