  • Publication number: 20080033995
    Abstract: Events are received from at least one source. An abstract definition of a process provides a modified version of the process. In accordance with mapping information, events from the received events corresponding to the modified version of the process are identified. Data relating to execution of the process is stored into a repository, wherein the stored data is produced from the identified events.

  • Publication number: 20050223032
    Abstract: Various approaches are disclosed for loading data from a vertical database table into a horizontal database table. In one embodiment, a number of rows in a vertical database table and a number of columns in a horizontal database table are determined. Entries in a first column of the vertical table contain object identifiers, entries in a second column contain attribute names corresponding to the object identifiers, and entries in a third column contain attribute values corresponding to the attribute names. The horizontal table includes a column for the object identifiers and respective attribute columns for the attributes names. One of a plurality of methods is selected and used for reading data from the vertical database table and writing data to the horizontal database table based in part on the number of rows in the vertical database table and the number of columns in the horizontal database table.

  • Publication number: 20030236689
    Abstract: Systems and methods of analyzing decision points in a business process are described. In one aspect, process execution data that is generated by a workflow management system during execution of one or more instances of a business process involving a set of one or more activities and a set of one or more decision points is accessed. Based upon the accessed process execution data, a predictive quantitative model including a set of one or more rules correlating context data at different stages of the business process with business process outcomes at one or more decision points in the business process is built. In another aspect, one or more rules correlating context data at different stages of the business process with business process outcomes at one or more decision points in the business process are presented to a user.
