    Computer support for adaptive human collaboration with negotiable social protocols
    (Business Information Systems – 9th International Conference on Business Information Systems (BIS 2006), 2006) Picard, Willy
    Support for human-to-human interactions over a network is still insufficient. Many research has to been done to provide both theoretical and practical knowledge to this field. This paper presents a model for adaptive humam collaboration. A key element of this model is the modeling of some social elements involved during the collaboration process. Processes are modeled as social protocols. A second contribution is the proposition of negotiation as a mean for adaption of these protocols.

    Managing multiple real and simulation business scenarios by means of a multiversion data warehouse
    (Business Information Systems – 9th International Conference on Business Information Systems (BIS 2006), 2006) Bȩbel, Bartosz; Królikowski, Zbyszko; Wrembel, Robert
    This paper addresses problems of the evolution of data warehouse schema and dimensions. In order to handle the evolution, we apply a multiversion data warehouse (MVDW). In this paper we discuss real world cases illustrating a DW evolution and show how to apply the MVDW in order to handle the cases.

    Situation spaces in context-aware business solutions
    (Business Information Systems – 9th International Conference on Business Information Systems (BIS 2006), 2006) Bartoszek, Jerzy; Brzykcy, Grażyna
    A partial solution of content-oriented processing is proposed. We combine ideas of tuple spaces, spaces of XML documents, the theory of situations and logic programming into one coherent mechanism. This mechanism can be used to build context-aware business solutions, such as enhanced workflow systems, semantic search engines and integrated intelligent user environments that ought to satisfy all the above mentioned features.

    Utilizing successful work practice for business process evolution
    (Business Information Systems – 9th International Conference on Business Information Systems (BIS 2006), 2006) Lu, Ruopeng; Sadiq, Shazia; Governatori, Guido
    Business process management (BPM) has emerged as a dominant technology in current enterprise systems and business solutions. However, business processes are always evolving in current dynamic business environments where requirements and goals are constantly changing. Whereas literature reports on the importance of domain experts in process modelling and adaptations, current solutions have not addressed this issue effectively. In this paper, we present a framework that utilizes successful work practice to support business process evolution. The framework on one hand provides the ability to use domain expert knowledge and experience to tailor individual process instances according to case specific requirements; and on the other, provides a means of using this knowledge through learning techniques to guide subsequent process changes.

    Why do we actually need the Pi-calculus for business process management?
    (Business Information Systems – 9th International Conference on Business Information Systems (BIS 2006), 2006) Puhlmann, Frank
    This paper discusses the applicability of a process algebra, the π-calculus, as a formal foundation for Business Process Management (BPM). We therefore investigate the π-calculus from a technical viewpoint based on current work in this area. The paper summarizes shifting requirements and discusses evolving theories behind BPM from the past over state-of-the-art to the future. The concepts and theories are concluded by an illustrating example highlighting why the π-calculus is a promising foundation for future BPM.

    Business rules for compliant business process models
    (Business Information Systems – 9th International Conference on Business Information Systems (BIS 2006), 2006) Goedertier, Stijn; Vanthienen, Jan
    The value of business rules in business process modeling has been recognized by several authors: if the knowledge about implicitly present policies and regulations is made explicitly traceable as business rules we can enhance the flexibility of computer-supported business processes. Yet to date it is not fully clear how business rules can be used to model compliant business process models. In this paper, we show that deontic assignments can be used to formally model business protocols. Within the regulatory framework of a business protocol, participants have the autonomy to perform activities according to their own business policies. This can be modeled using reaction rules.

    Script-based system for monitoring client-side activity
    (Business Information Systems – 9th International Conference on Business Information Systems (BIS 2006), 2006) Kulpa, Artur; Swacha, Jakub; Budzowski, Roman
    In this paper, a system for monitoring client-side activity is described. The system is capable of monitoring a wide range of user actions performed in web browser environment. Event logs are sent to the web server for further processing. The described system is completely script-driven on the client side, requiring no additional software to be installed on the client system and guaranteeing platform-independence. The website user has full control over the monitoring and can disable it anytime.

    Variability mechanisms in e-business process families
    (Business Information Systems – 9th International Conference on Business Information Systems (BIS 2006), 2006) Schnieders, Arnd; Puhlmann, Frank
    Nowadays, process oriented software systems, like many business information systems, don't exist only in one single version, but in many variants for better coverage of the target market. Until now, the corresponding customization has to be done manually, which is a timeconsuming and error-prone task, which could be realized much more efficiently by applying process family engineering techniques. Process family engineering is a modern software development approach, which allows for the rapid and cost-effective development and deployment of customer tailored process oriented systems. In this paper we present our findings in the area of process family architectures for e-business systems, described as variant-rich process models in the Business Process Modeling Notation. We moreover address variability implementation issues using Java variability mechanisms and code generators.

    Object-oriented wrapper for semistructured data in a data grid architecture
    (Business Information Systems – 9th International Conference on Business Information Systems (BIS 2006), 2006) Kuliberda, Kamil; Wislicki, Jacek; Adamus, Radoslaw; Subieta, Kazimierz
    The paper addresses the problem of integrating data based on a XML-like semistructured model with a data grid architecture based on an object-oriented model. This work is continuation of the previous works on object-to-relational wrappers and covers a generic integration procedure for utilizing a native Lore query mechanism for retrieving data from XML data sources. A corresponding wrapper is founded on the concepts of the stackbased approach (SBA) and updatable views. The proposed architecture supports grid's transparency and allows a grid user to operate in an object-oriented environment through SBQL, a stackbased query language. The described wrapper makes it possible to employ the native Lorel query optimization mechanisms. A query entering the front-end of the wrapper (object-oriented business model) is transformed and rewritten according to the SBQL optimization rules incorporated in the wrapper and then evaluated in the native XML resource environment through the query language Lorel. The paper discusses architectural issues of such a wrapper and presents its idea through a concise example.
