基于本体的业务流程适应性配置方法研究

Research on Adaptive Approach for Business Process Configuration Based on Ontology

本文提出了一种基于描述逻辑的本体和规则的半自动业务流程配置框架.设计并实现了可配置节点本体及业务规则本体,提出七类元规则指导业务规则的撰写.最后提出基于C-i EPC的流程配置算法,对可配置流程进行配置.本文使用案例进行验证,结果证明本文方法能够在降低人工成本的基础上,取得与国际主流的问卷式流程配置方法相近的效果,并使用经验验证的方法证明了本文方法的实用性和有效性.

This paper proposes a framew ork for carrying out semi-automatic service-based business process configuration. We design and implement a variation point ontology and business rule ontology,and propose seven kinds of meta rules to guide specific business rules,in w hich the guidelines of variable points are presented by these specific rules. We employ a configuration algorithm to configure a configurable business process depending on the reference result of variable points. The approach is validated by cases study,experiments results proved w e obtain equal configurate effect w ith international mainstream method of questionnaire,and reduce the manual w ork. Finally w e present a empirically study valid the usefulness and efficiency of our w ork.
