Transformation of BPMN subprocesses based in SPEM using QVT

Abstract

The workflow automate the business process of a organization. Software process engineering metamodel (SPEM) is a standard as a specification of any software development process. In particular, the software development processes are business process. This work proposes a solution to automate the management of activities of a software development process specified by SPEM. The SPEM activities are transformed in subprocesses of the standard BPMN. The transformation is done by the language query/views/ transformations (QVT). The SPEM, BPMN and QVT have been standardized by Object Management Group (OMG). The target (BPMN) subprocess definition is turned into a specification in a standard language to put in action the workflow processes, such as business process execution language for web services (BPEL4WS) and XML process definition language (XPDL). In this way, the specification of subprocesses of software development process will executed by Workflow engine. The engine automates any software development process specified by SPEM through its transformation into BPMN subprocesses.
