“…Concerning existing MDA approaches, and regarding the specific HCI perspective, the closest solutions are methods that design the user interface based on user task and domain models, as Sukaviriya's [22], Sousa's [23] and Cedar [24]. Our approach is different as it complementarily conceives the business logic layer based on enterprise business rules and coordination structures.…”

This is an author-deposited version published in : http://oatao.univ-toulouse.fr/ Eprints ID : 18843The contribution was presented at HCSE 2016:http://www.hcse-hessd.org/ Abstract. Business Process Improvement (BPI) is a key issue in the development of the enterprise competitiveness. However, achieving a level of software development performance that matches enterprise BPI needs in terms of producing noticeable results in small amounts of time requires the existence of a comprehensive and also agile Software Development Process (SDP). Quite often, SDPs do not deliver software architectures that can be directly used for in-house development, as specifications are either too close to the user interface design or too close to business rules and application domain modeling, and produce architectures that do not cope with software development concerns. In this paper we present the Goals Approach, which structures business processes to extract requirements, and methodologically details them in order to specify the user interface, the business logic and the database structures for the architecture of a BPI. Our approach aims in-house software development in small and medium enterprises.

OATAO is an open access repository that collects the work of Toulouse researchers and makes it freely available over the web where possible. Abstract. The development of Web-based Information Systems is crucial in the quest to maintain and develop the enterprise competiveness. However, capturing requirements from Business Processes (BP) is still an issue, as existing methods mostly focus, or on human aspects and the user interface, or on business concerns as rules and workflow coordination, and therefore do not specify all the Software Architectural components which are relevant for software development. We present the Goals Approach, which analyzes BPs and User Tasks and details them in the process of methodically designing and structuring the User Interface, the Business Logic and the Database of the Information System given a Model-View-Controller (MVC) architectural pattern. In this paper we focus on how to obtain the Goals business model of requirements based on the DEMO method. The approach can be used for in-house software development, and the method is straightforward fitting Small and Medium Enterprises agility needs.

“…In (Guerrero, 2008) a user interface modelling approach in the context of workflows is proposed but it does not use the BPMN notation. Other works have focused on rapid prototyping of low-fidelity user interfaces mock-ups using business process models as a starting point: (Sukaviriya, 2007) and (Pontico, 2006) highlight the need of integrating UI aspects in business process models and the fact that business notations, such as BPMN alone, are not suitable to analyze user activities because user interactions are disjointed throughout the process and stress that a mixed usercentred approach can lead to several advantages in eGoverment applications. Moreover, an interesting work (Sousa, 2008b) has proposed a model-driven approach in aligning business processes, expressed using BPMN, with user interfaces, in which assumptions made on associations between elements of those models are exploited to automatically transform business process models into user interface models to then complete the user interface development cycle.…”

Abstract:This paper presents a methodology that defines a model-based approach in composing User Interfaces for Business Processes based on Web service technology. The core concepts of the methodology are represented by an integration of modern task model notations developed in the HCI area, such as ConcurTaskTrees, with a mainstream notation for Business Process modelling (BPMN) developed in the workflow/business process area. The main advantage is to obtain thorough support in designing complex interactive business applications able to flexibly compose Web services and obtain meaningful associated user interfaces which can be not only Web interfaces but also extended to a multi-modal fruition. The proposed methodology allows a collaborative work between business process modellers and user interface modellers remaining open to iterative refinements. In this paper we also briefly compare the considered notations and discuss an example application of the proposed method.
