“…Una gestión descentralizada de los procesos colaborativos es requerida para mantener la autonomía de las organizaciones [2], de tal manera que cada organización gobierne y gestione en forma independiente sus procesos privados y la información que produce para dar soporte a los procesos colaborativos, la cual se puede alcanzar a través de la ejecución de los procesos de integración de las organizaciones involucradas [5]. Un proceso de integración define tanto el comportamiento público como el comportamiento privado que soporta el rol que una organización cumple en un proceso colaborativo.…”

“…METODOLOGÍA La metodología propuesta tiene como objetivo guiar el proceso de desarrollo de soluciones tecnológicas basadas en agentes de software, utilizando como base el marco conceptual presentado en [5], el cual proporciona los diferentes niveles de abstracción en los que se debe enfocar el desarrollo de colaboraciones inter-organizacionales. Adicionalmente, la metodología se basa en la propuesta metodológica presentada en [15], la cual es aplicada a un caso concreto del área de servicios electrónicos de atención a la salud (e-healthcare) con un enfoque de colaboración inter-organizacional tradicional o estático, que se caracteriza por negociaciones y acuerdos de colaboración que se realizan cara a cara entre las organizaciones participantes para definir los procesos colaborativos a ejecutar.…”

The globalization, modern markets, as well as new organizational management philosophies and advances in Information and Communications Technologies, encourage organizations to establish collaboration networks or interorganizational collaborations. In this paper we propose a technology solution based on software agents which allows supporting the management of collaborative business processes in environments dynamic inter-organizational collaborations. First, we propose a software agent platform that integrates in agent specification's the notions of Belief-Desire-Intention agent architecture with functionalities of process-aware information systems. The platform enables organizations to negotiate collaborations agreements in electronic format to establish dynamic inter-organizational collaborations and define the collaborative processes to be executed. Second, we propose a methodology that includes methods based on Model-Driven Development, which enable the generation of executable process models and the code of process-oriented agents, derived from conceptual models of collaborative processes. This methodology and methods are implemented and automated by software agents that enable the generations of these implementation artifacts, at run-time of the platform. Therefore, the platform enables the automatic generation of the technology solution that requires each organization to execute the agreed collaborative processes, where the generated artifacts are built and initialized in the platform, allowing the implementation and execution of these processes. In this way, the proposed agent-based platform allows to establish collaboration among heterogeneous and autonomous organizations focusing in the process-oriented integration.

“…To support this, the platform implements a model-driven method and tool [26] for generating the IBP models of each organization from the agreed CBP model. Since organizations may not want to share their private processes, an IBP repository is provided for each organization, in order to have access to its own IBP models only.…”

Abstract-With the wide adoption of the Internet, organizations establish collaborative networks to execute Collaborative Business Processes (CBPs). Current approaches of Process-Aware Information Systems (PAISs) to implement and execute CBPs have shortcomings: high costs and complexity of IT infrastructure to deploy the PAISs; poor support for autonomy, decentralization, global view of message exchange and peer-to-peer interactions; and rigid platforms for generating and deploying PAISs on-demand according with the CBPs agreed in collaborative networks. To overcome these issues, this work proposes a cloud-based platform for the management of CBPs. The platform provides cloud services that enable the generation and deployment on-demand of the PAISs required to implement the agreed CBPs, as well as the execution on-demand of CBPs by fulfilling the abovementioned issues. To deal with privacy issues, the platform can be deployed in private clouds. Elasticity is provided at the level of process instances and portability is also achieved.

The verification of collaborative processes is a key issue to consider in cross-organizational modeling methodologies. Some of the existing verification approaches provide only partial support, whereas others impose some restrictions to verify models with advanced control flow, compromise (completely or partially) the enterprise autonomy, or are focused on technology-dependent specifications. In order to deal with these issues we introduce Global Interaction Nets, which are based on Hierarchical and Colored Petri Nets, and the Global Interaction Soundness property, which was adapted from the classical definition of soundness, as the main correctness criterion. The method can be used to formalize and verify models defined with different modeling languages. In addition, we apply the method through a case study modeled with UP-ColBPIP, which is a modeling language for collaborative processes, and formalize its constructs by means of Global Interaction Nets.
