  • Publication number: 20120084215
    Abstract: A business process-driven collaboration system embeds collaboration resources and tools directly into existing business processes and applications. The system interfaces with an existing business process management (BPM) service to extract dynamic metadata and an activity identifier associated with a current business process. The system obtains static metadata based on the activity identifier from a collaboration template. The system also merges the static and dynamic metadata, and provides the merged metadata to a process-driven collaboration service to be used in embedding collaboration utilities into the existing business applications.
