“…5.2.1 Workflow realization. Our proposed framework is developed using a direct approach to realize an artifact-centric process model while the other framework, such as in Liu et al (2009), Zhao et al (2011b), Zhao et al (2011a), Fan et al (2015, use indirect approaches, i.e. an ACP model needs to be transformed to a traditional task-centric execution model such as BPEL.…”

“…The notion of EZ-Flow consists of artifacts and classes, tasks and workflow schemas. The engine for executing EZ-Flow was also developed with support for runtime modification Fan et al (2015) proposed a JTang-Artifact Flow model that captures artifact-centric processes. To execute the model, they proposed a mapping mechanism and an algorithm to convert their artifact model to an activity model called JTangFlow to run on their activitycentric workflow engine.…”

“…In fact, most of the existing approaches require artifact-centric process models (Bhattacharya et al, 2007) be converted into traditional workflow models [e.g. Business process execution language (BPEL)] so that they can be executed on existing workflow or business process management systems (Liu et al, 2009;Zhao et al, 2011b;Zhao et al, 2011a;Fan et al, 2015). It is argued that performing model transformation can incur some extent of information loss and degrades workflow traceability (Ngamakeur et al, 2012).…”

Purpose The paper aims to study realization requirements for the flexible enactment of artifact-centric business processes in a dynamic, collaborative environment and to develop a workflow execution framework that can effectively address those requirements. Design/methodology/approach This study proposed a framework and contract-based, event-driven architecture design and implementation that can directly realize collaborative artifact-centric business processes in service-oriented architecture (SOA) without any model conversion. Findings The results show that the approach is feasible in presenting several key benefits over the use of existing workflow systems to run artifact-centric processes. Originality/value Most of the existing approaches require an artifact-centric model to be transformed into executable workflow languages to run on existing workflow management systems. This study argues that the model conversion can incur losses of information and affect traceability and monitoring ability of workflows, especially in an SOA where a workflow can span across multiple inter-business entities.

“…Although artifact-centric BP modeling has been well studied in the past many years, existing BP execution approaches require artifact-centric BP models be transformed to executable activity-centric BP languages (e.g., [4], [7], [9], [12]). Performing model transformation incurs losses of information and affects traceability and monitoring ability of BPs, especially in Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) where BPs span across multiple inter-business entities.…”

Abstract-Artifact-centric modeling has become an alternative, yet promising approach of business process (BP) modeling and management as it provides higher flexibility than that of traditional activity-centric approaches. However, existing BP execution engines require artifact-centric models be transformed to executable activity-centric BP languages (e.g., BPEL) in order to be executed and managed. We argue that the model conversion incurs losses of information and affects traceability and monitoring ability of BPs, especially where BPs span across inter-organizations. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of an execution platform for artifactcentric BPs. We evaluated our platform using a case study and that can demonstrate several key benefits over the use of existing systems to run artifact-centric BPs.
