Collaborative process definition using an ontology-based approach
Résumé
This paper presents all ontology-based approach dedicated to automate file specification of collaborative processes for virtual organization networks. Our approach takes as input the knowledge coming from the characterization of network and produces as output a BPMN (Business Process Modeling Notation) compliant process. The collaborative network ontology (CNO) including deduction rides has been defined in order to accomplish this approach under two keys (i) some specific attributes of file considered collaboration included network and participant (ii) collaborative processes inspired from the enterprise Process Handbook (MIT). This CNO coupled with a reasoning engine will be used with an editor, provided by EBM WebSourcing, to model the network, and build the colloborative process of a given collaboration. A model transformation will be applied offer that to convert a collaborative process of the editor to a BPMN relevant one.
