Orchestration
16
Business process models are performed in a single organization by definition
Thus, the ordering of activities can be controlled by a business process management system as
a centralized software component run by the organization
This kind of control is called orchestration
![Page 17: Business Processes Modelling MPB (6 cfu, 295AA)didawiki.cli.di.unipi.it/lib/exe/fetch.php/magistraleinformaticaecono... · booking a flight, a hotel and optionally a car, with the](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071011/5fc9346807dcd238e673a5b6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Orchestration
17
Orchestration is about describing and executing a single view point model
The analogy is with the conductor who centrally controls the musicians in an orchestra
![Page 18: Business Processes Modelling MPB (6 cfu, 295AA)didawiki.cli.di.unipi.it/lib/exe/fetch.php/magistraleinformaticaecono... · booking a flight, a hotel and optionally a car, with the](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071011/5fc9346807dcd238e673a5b6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Workflow management coalition (WfMC)

Founded in the ‘90s by vendors, users, academia: fix standard for Wf representation and execution

Workflow
22
Definition: a workflow is the automation of a business process, in whole or in part,
during which documents, information, or tasks are passed from one participant to another for action,
according to a set of procedural rules
![Page 23: Business Processes Modelling MPB (6 cfu, 295AA)didawiki.cli.di.unipi.it/lib/exe/fetch.php/magistraleinformaticaecono... · booking a flight, a hotel and optionally a car, with the](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071011/5fc9346807dcd238e673a5b6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Workflow management system
23
Definition: a workflow management system is a software system that defines, creates, and manages Wfs execution, running on one or more workflow engines, able to interpret the workflow definition, able to interact with workflow participants, and able to invoke the use of IT tools and applications
![Page 24: Business Processes Modelling MPB (6 cfu, 295AA)didawiki.cli.di.unipi.it/lib/exe/fetch.php/magistraleinformaticaecono... · booking a flight, a hotel and optionally a car, with the](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071011/5fc9346807dcd238e673a5b6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Kinds of workflow
24
Definition: a system workflow consists of activities that are implemented by software systems without any user involvement
Definition: Workflows in which humans are actively involved and interact with information systems are called human interaction workflows.

Example: Human interaction workflow

Human interaction workflows
26
Goal: support automation by driving the human activities
according to the process model
Benefits: reduce idle periods
avoid redundant work improve human/machine work integration
![Page 27: Business Processes Modelling MPB (6 cfu, 295AA)didawiki.cli.di.unipi.it/lib/exe/fetch.php/magistraleinformaticaecono... · booking a flight, a hotel and optionally a car, with the](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071011/5fc9346807dcd238e673a5b6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Roles
27
Roles are groups of employees that qualify for being responsible of certain activities.
Increased flexibility: different persons can cover the same role at
different time in different cases
![Page 28: Business Processes Modelling MPB (6 cfu, 295AA)didawiki.cli.di.unipi.it/lib/exe/fetch.php/magistraleinformaticaecono... · booking a flight, a hotel and optionally a car, with the](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071011/5fc9346807dcd238e673a5b6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Human collaboration
28
When task performed by humans are involved in the workflow, it is not sufficient to equip workers
with adequate software:
their collaboration must be supported
shared data repositories and work handover can speed-up office procedure considerably
![Page 29: Business Processes Modelling MPB (6 cfu, 295AA)didawiki.cli.di.unipi.it/lib/exe/fetch.php/magistraleinformaticaecono... · booking a flight, a hotel and optionally a car, with the](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071011/5fc9346807dcd238e673a5b6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Some limitations
29
Problems with knowledge workers:
User acceptance issues
Machine burdening of workers
Little room for creativity and flexibility

Exercise
30
Travel agency orchestration: define a series of task for booking a flight, a hotel and optionally a car, with the possibility to change dates, to cancel the booking, to confirm the booking. Then, draw a process diagram relating the tasks.

Cross-organization interaction
37
Each business process is enacted by one organization
Business processes can interact with each other
Interacting activities of business processes must be related together

Choreography
40
The interactions of a set of business processes are specified in a process choreography
Difference w.r.t. orchestration: the absence of a central agent that controls the
activities in the business processes involved
For the interaction to be realized correctly, the interacting business processes better be aware and agree upon the choreography in advance

Choreography
41
Choreography is about describing a global model (multi-point view)
The analogy is with the dancers who behave autonomously, but follow their parts in the choreography

Choreography diagram
42
Choreography diagrams allow for multiple concrete implementations, with different software support
Old-fashioned order: a buyer browses a paper catalogue of a reseller, then fills a postcard and sends it by snail mail and pay by bank transfer
e-commerce: a buyer browses an online web catalogue, fills a virtual basket and an electronic form (billing information) and presses the submit button. The goods themselves may be intangible
(e-books, music, video, software)

Interaction issues
43
As said, interacting business processes must be aware and agree upon the choreography
In such cases, the realization of business processes by participants can change without
affecting the overall behaviour
On the other hand, if the change is not done correctly, then some problems may arise

Exercises
47
In previous slides, we have seen many variants of business processes for resellers (two) and buyers (four).
Build a “compatibility” matrix with two rows and four columns and mark all the combinations for which some
problems may arise during the interaction because activities are not implemented in the expected order.
You are also free to consider other process diagrams, by adding the corresponding rows / columns to the matrix.

Exercise
49
Coffee break choreography: Draw the process diagram for a vending machine that accepts a coin, then gives the possibility
(1) to get a coffee or (2) to insert another coin and get either a
cappuccino or a tea. Draw the process diagrams for a compatible butler robot and a "problematic" butler robot.
