Variability Mechanisms for Process Models

Abstract

This report describes the representation of variant rich process models and the derivation of concrete process models using variability mechanisms. Therefore based on a study of existing variability mechanisms, architecturally relevant variability mechanisms are identified and their transfer first onto generic processes and then onto UML Activity Diagrams, UML State Machines, BPMN, and Matlab/Simulink is described. A number of practical examples demonstrates the application of the approach. III PESOA is a cooperative project supported by the federal ministry of education and research (BMBF). Its aim is the design and prototypical implementation of a process family engineering platform and its application in the areas of e-business and telematics. The project partners are: · DaimlerChrysler AG · Delta Software Technology GmbH · ehotel AG · Fraunhofer IESE · Hasso-Plattner-Institute · University of Leipzig PESOA is coordinated by Prof. Dr. Mathias Weske Prof.-Dr.-Helmert-Str. 2-3 D-14482 Potsdam www.pesoa.org
