A Model-Driven Service Integrated Framework Based on Three-Layer Ontology

摘要

The misunderstanding of business models and the inefficiency of service integration impede the business process management and cause inconvenience to enterprise operations, especially in the Internet era. In this paper, a model-driven service integrated framework based on three-layer ontology is proposed to manage the processes and web services in a comprehensive and semantically way. It covers four phases of business process management, including designing, management, execution and feedback. The proposed ontology consists of three layers: the general ontology for business process modeling, the domain ontology for a domain-specific modeling and the scene ontology for a certain business scene. With the ontology's capability of finding correlations and automatic reasoning, the framework unifies the semantics of business process models, supports the transformation from models to services, promotes the service integration, facilitates the automation of process execution and ensures the sustainability.
