Mapping Business Processes to Objects, Components and Frameworks: A Moving Target!

摘要

Recently some material has been published on how to map or even integrate business processes with objects. However, object technology is moving fast and so is our target : the OO community is gradually moving towards components (including business components) and frameworks (including business frameworks). This document outlines an approach for: i) mapping business processes to business components, and ii) refining business processes for the development of business components and frameworks. Variations of this approach have been implemented by the author in leading OO projects, such as IBM's San Francisco Project and JP Morgan/Euroclear 's Next Project.
