Patent number: 8229775Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for capturing, storing, querying and analyzing provenance data for automatic discovery of enterprise process information. For example, a computer-implemented method for managing a process associated with an enterprise comprises the following steps. Data associated with an actual end-to-end execution of an enterprise process is collected. Provenance data is generated based on at least a portion of the collected data, wherein the provenance data is indicative of a lineage of one or more data items. A provenance graph that provides a visual representation of the generated provenance data is generated, wherein nodes of the graph represent records associated with the collected data and edges of the graph represent relations between the records. The generated provenance graph is stored in a repository for use in analyzing the enterprise process.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2008Date of Patent: July 24, 2012Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Sharon C.

Publication number: 20120179990Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for capturing and visualizing data lineage in content management systems. For example, a method comprises the following steps. A plurality of data sets is received. Each of the data sets is associated with a party and comprises a plurality of information. A set of lineage data about one or more of the data sets is received. The lineage data comprises information about the history of a particular data set. A user interface is presented that conveys a representation of one or more of the plurality of received data sets and at least a portion of the lineage data about the history of one or more of the data sets. A command is received at the user interface to merge or unmerge two data sets in the plurality of data sets. Two or more data sets in the plurality of data sets are merged or unmerged based on the received command.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2011Publication date: July 12, 2012Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Francisco P.

Patent number: 8209204Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for influencing behavior of enterprise operations during process enactment using provenance data. For example, a computer-implemented method of influencing a behavior of an enterprise process comprises the following steps. Provenance data is generated, wherein the provenance data is based on collected data associated with at least a partial actual execution of the enterprise process and is indicative of a lineage of one or more data items. A provenance graph is generated that provides a visual representation of the generated provenance data, wherein nodes of the graph represent records associated with the collected data and edges of the graph represent relations between the records. At least a portion of the generated provenance data from the graph is analyzed to generate an execution pattern corresponding to the at least partial actual execution of the enterprise process. The execution pattern is compared to one or more previously stored patterns.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2008Date of Patent: June 26, 2012Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Sharon C.

Publication number: 20120143774Abstract: Techniques for role-based service operation status reporting to clients are provided. In one aspect, a method for reporting a status of a service operation to a client is provided. The method includes the following steps. A sequence of business process steps involved in performing the service operation is identified. One or more abstractions of the business process steps are made, each abstraction containing a sequence of a fewer number of steps than the business process, wherein the number of steps in each of the abstractions correlates with a level of detail about the service operation. The status of the service operation is reported to the client based on a given one of the abstractions having the level of detail best suited to a role of the client.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 7, 2010Publication date: June 7, 2012Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Francisco Phelan Curbera, Michael John Dikun, Yurdaer Nezihi Doganata, Jim Alain Laredo, John J.
