“…Our future work includes testing this solution using the edge embedded workflow manager presented in [31] and using a real industrial use case. The advantage of executing workflows at the edge environment is more accessibility to logs, low latency, and scalability [35].…”

“…The orchestration is then handled by the BPMN Execution Platform, this component comprehends any workflow executor or business process executor that can interpret and run recipes written in BPMN. Different technologies can be used at this stage, e.g WSO2, Camunda, or a Node-RED Workflow Manager presented in [31]. Thus, asset services are orchestrated accordingly.…”

“…It provides a web browser-based flow editor; its core is built on Node.js and its flows are represented in the JSON format. Due to its open-source nature, we have implemented a Node-RED Workflow Manager tool (Node-RED WM) that is easily deployable in an embedded system [75]. The Node-RED WM mainly addresses the deployment and execution stages of the workflow engineering lifecycle.…”

In an era ruled by data and information, engineers need new tools to cope with the increased complexity of industrial operations. New architectural models for industry enable open communication environments, where workflows can play a major role in providing flexible and dynamic interactions between systems. Workflows help engineers maintain precise control over their factory equipment and Information Technology (IT) services, from the initial design stages to plant operations. The current application of workflows departs from the classic business workflows that focus on office automation systems in favor of a manufacturing-oriented approach that involves direct interaction with cyber-physical systems (CPSs) on the shop floor. This paper identifies relevant industry-related challenges that hinder the adoption of workflow technology, which are classified within the context of a cohesive workflow lifecycle. The classification compares the various workflow management solutions and systems used to monitor and execute workflows. These solutions have been developed alongside the Eclipse Arrowhead framework, which provides a common infrastructure for designing systems according to the microservice architectural principles. This paper investigates and compares various solutions for workflow management and execution in light of the associated industrial requirements. Further, it compares various microservice-based approaches and their implementation. The objective is to support industrial stakeholders in their decision-making with regard to choosing among workflow management solutions.

“…Comprehends any workflow executor software that can understand BPMN recipes. There are several BPMN executor software options available, including Camunda Platform, WSO2, Bonita BPM, and Node-RED Workflow Manager (Node-RED WM) [59]. The latest one is a workflow management system that interprets and runs workflow recipes written in BPMN.…”
