  • Patent number: 10769566
    Abstract: A process instances guard system for managing the execution of process instances based on statuses of other process instances in a business process management (BPM) engine is disclosed. The process instances guard system provides a plurality of policies for managing the execution of process instances. When a status change event related to an existing process instance is received, the process instances guard system matches the existing process instance with a policy. After determining that the existing process instance matches the prerequisite condition of a policy, the process instances guard system determines that a plurality of existing process instances match the policy target descriptor of the policy, and executes the action of the policy on the plurality of existing process instances.
