“…They suggest that the service had to be linked to a business pattern with the Return/Rollback (Architects 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6) or Compensation semantics (Architect 1). We plan to apply Compensation patterns from (Boubaker et al, 2015) to return type processes. Moreover, architects 1 and 3 found that the (S10) automates partially the collaboration (value 1 with gray background in the table 6).…”

Today's business processes are increasingly complex as they cross organizational boundaries. To execute their business processes, organizations develop software applications called Process-Aware Information System (PAIS). PAIS designers must consider complex scenarios involving multiple partners.Consequently, the architectural design of high quality PAIS is complex and requires vast amounts of knowledge and skills both in software architecture and in the business domain. This paper proposes a model-driven method to design the architecture of PAIS using the service-oriented architecture (SOA) style.The proposed method generates SOA-based design models expressed in SoaML from the specifications of collaborative business processes expressed in BPMN. We developed a prototype tool using the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) ecosystem. We tested the method on a set of processes from the Enterprise Resource Planning literature to assess its effectiveness. Our results show that 80.95% of the identified services were relevant and corresponded to what architecture specialists expected.

Summary Business models are economic models that describe the rationale of why organizations create and deliver value. These models focus on what organizations offer and why. Business process models capture business activities and the ways in which they are accomplished (i.e. their coordination). They explain who is involved in the activities, and how and when these activities should be performed. This paper discusses the alignment between business models and business process models. It proposes a novel systematic method for extracting a value chain (i.e. business model) expressed in the Resources, Events, Agents (REA) ontology from a business process model expressed in Business Process Model and Notation™. Our contribution is twofold: (1) from a theoretical standpoint we identified a set of structural and behavioural patterns that enable us to infer the corresponding REA value chain; (2) from a pragmatic perspective, our approach can be used to derive useful knowledge about the business process and serve as a starting point for business analysis.
