Title
Live-Representation Process Management
Abstract
We present the live-representation approach for managing and working in complex, dynamic business pro- cesses. In this approach, aspects of business-process modeling, project planning, project management, re- source scheduling, and process automation, execution, and reporting are integrated into an on-line represen- tation of planned and executing processes. This representation provides a real-time view of past, present, and anticipated process activities and resourcing. Changes in the process are immediately reflected in the live representation, so that, at any point in time, the latest information about process status and downstream ex- pectations is available. Managers can directly manipulate the live representation to change process structure and execution. These changes are then quickly propagated throughout the environment, keeping managers and process participants in sync with process changes. In this paper, we describe the technical and humanistic issues associated with the live-representation approach and summarize experiences gained in developing a commercial implementation that was used with design processes in the automotive and aerospace industries.
