业务流程柔性配置的研究和实现

Research and Implementation of the Flexible Configuration in Business Process

实现了一个柔性可配置轻量级工作流引擎系统.系统使用工具Ja WE进行可视化建模,生成XPDL格式的流程定义文件;并设计实现了基于Token的引擎执行控制机制,使得引擎系统对其所在业务系统中的业务流程执行过程的控制准确而有效率.采用适当的流程定义管理策略,实现对流程运行时修改流程定义的支持;同时引擎使用基于组件配置的方式形成业务系统,使应用引擎的业务系统具有较大的柔性.该引擎已成功应用在某制药企业的项目管理平台中,取得了良好的应用效果.

This paper implements a lightweight workflow engine system which is flexible and can be configured. The system uses tools of Ja WE for visual modeling, then it generats XPDL format process definition file. It designs an engine executive mechanism based on Token, which makes the control of engine system with the business process implementation more accurate and efficient. It adopts appropriate process definition management strategy that gives the modification definition support during process operation. At the same time, the engine forms business system by using the way based on components configuration, which makes application engine business system have great flexibility. The engine system has been successfully applied in a pharmaceutical enterprise project management platform, and has obtained a good application effect.
