“…After dealing with the instrumental basis of e-therapy service in mobile application design, elucidating in detail on the way to implement it within the graphical visualization to describe dynamic aspects of the system is considered as a flow chart to represent the flow form in the workflows with stepwise activities and actions [19].To achieve this support for the option the activity can be described as an operation of the system generated with iteration and concurrency. In UML, an activity diagram is used to display the sequence of activities.…”

Abstract-Cyber counselling or e-therapy has widely been adopted as the new approach to give an insightful guidance into the clients. In higher education (HE) level, this initiative seems to have rarely been involved due to some technical requirements and preparations. This paper aims to present the approach of e-therapy using mobile application design. The finding illustrates that promoting this model application can theoretically assist the transmission process of counselling in the academic circumstance where both students and advisors may have a continuous engagement with more convenient quality in solving the issues surrounding the academic purposes. The attainment of this paper is expected to contribute in enabling the process of academic counselling in the context of higher education (HE). Strengthening practical and relational value maintaining connection to facilitate the sensitive issues disclosure is expected to help students solve their academic issues, such as reflecting the learning achievement.

“…It offers different kinds of splittings such as OR-splits, AND-splits or conditional splits.These tools allows the activity diagram to represent almost any kind of information flow making the diagram able to describe the basic behaviors of a workflow. Many authors, such as Kalnins et al [21], propose to use UML or to extend UML [10,36] in order to model workflow while others have discussed its suitability. Dumas et al [14] analyzed the UML notation by representing the workflow patterns defined in [31] and concluded that, unlike alternative commercial languages, UML provides support for waiting and processing states and decomposition tools while they syntax and semantics presents a lack of precision for complex actions such as cancellation patterns or Multiple Instance Patterns and that UML doesn not fully capture important kinds of synchronization such as the discriminator and the N-out-of-M join.…”

Petri net-based process monitoring: a workflow management system for process modelling and monitoring

Nowadays business process management is becoming a fundamental piece in many industrial processes. To manage the evolution and the interactions of the business actions it is important to accurately model the steps to follow and the resources needed by a process. Workflows provide a way of describing the order of execution and the dependencies between the constituting activities of business processes. Workflow monitoring can help to improve and to avoid delays on industrial environments where concurrent processes are carried out.In this article a new Petri net extension for modeling together workflow activities with their required resources is presented: resource-aware Petri nets. Moreover an intelligent workflow management system for process monitoring and delay prediction is introduced.Resource aware Petri nets include time and resources into the classical Petri net workflow representation, facilitating the task of modeling and monitoring workflows. The workflow management system monitors the execution of workflows and detects possible delays through resource-aware Petri nets.In order to test this new approach, different services from a medical maintenance environment have been modeled and simulated.
