  • Rule based instantiation of software- and system development processes
    Patent number: 8234621
    Abstract: A method, system and a computer readable medium for performing a rule based instantiation of a generic software and/or system development process to provide a project specific implemented instantiated process. The proposed approach provides a gradual way to provide an implemented instantiated process adapted to project specific needs by using a staggered instantiation mode. The approach distinguishes between high level instantiation and detailed instantiation depending on the nature of the instantiation operation. The approach is flexibly applicable to software and systems development processes and the set of instantiation operations is extendable.

  • Method and apparatus for adapting a process instance
    Publication number: 20110144775
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus are disclosed for adapting a process instance, which guarantee that process instances are conform to a specific process meta model. Therefore constraint violations are detected and furthermore remedied according to a derived violation meta model. In at least one embodiment, the present invention finds application in process modeling, system process optimization and/or controlling of machines or technical devices.
