This article provides an overview of the design, implementation, revision and informal assessment of an information literacy curriculum embedded in a new University Foundations (UF) program at a mid-sized public university. The library information literacy sessions incorporated team-based learning and Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) elements using iPads. Each session provided students an opportunity to develop and apply information literacy skills, and included critical thinking questions which led students to think about underlying concepts. A focus group with the librarians assessed the UF library curriculum, its impact on student engagement, and the training activities for librarian teaching preparation.
On February 11, 1800, Henry Fox Talbot, British inventor and photography pioneer was born, who invented the calotype process, a precursor to photographic processes of the 19th and 20th centuries. Like other pioneers of early photography, Talbot not only was occupied with the processing technology, but also is known as an photographic artist. Moreover, Talbot's talents also extended to mathematics, astronomy, and archeology. Actually, he even participated in the translation of the cuneiform inscriptions from Nineveh.
Process Charting (also known as Process Mapping) is one of the oldest, simplest and most valuable techniques for streamlining work. It is used in nearly every level of production.

Activiti is a light-weight workflow and Business Process Management (BPM) Platform targeted at business people, developers and system admins. Its core is a super-fast and rock-solid BPMN 2 process engine for Java. It's open-source and distributed under the Apache license. Activiti runs in any Java application, on a server, on a cluster or in the cloud. It integrates perfectly with Spring, it is extremely lightweight and based on simple concepts.

However I don't think this is the key point about agile
methods. Lack of documentation is a symptom of two much deeper
differences:
Agile methods are adaptive rather than predictive.
Engineering methods tend to try to plan out a large part of the software
process in great detail for a long span of time, this works well until
things change. So their nature is to resist change. The agile methods,
however, welcome change. They try to be processes that adapt and
thrive on change, even to the point of changing themselves.
Agile methods are people-oriented rather than
process-oriented. The goal of engineering methods is to define a
process that will work well whoever happens to be using it. Agile
methods assert that no process will ever make up the skill of the
development team, so the role of a process is to support the
development team in their work.In the following sections I'll explore these differences in
more detail, so that you can understand what an adaptive and
people-centered process is like, its benefits and drawbacks, and
whether it's something you should use: either as a developer or
customer of software.
It strikes me that many companies who think they have either a unique process or a lot of process variations actually do not - they have a standard set of activities that must be assembled dynamically based on the circumstances, customer etc. This leads to a rules-first approach to defining the process and much simpler processes. This is particularly useful when you start considering case management processes where using the rules to determine what state the case has reached and what, therefore, is the right next step is a clearly better approach.
OpenLexicon is an open-source business rules and process management tool that rapidly develops applications for transaction and process-based applications. OpenLexicon is known for providing high performance solutions and has been used in a number of enterprise-level applications. You can read about these here . You can use either product separately or in concert. There are two main components of OpenLexicon: the metadata repository and the business rules engine. Major components of OpenLexicon are released as open source software under the OpenLexicon OpenSource License. A good overview of the business rules approach is available here .OpenLexicon has a Wizard that is a web-form based collaborative tool for building business rules and business use cases. For a brief overview of the wizard, look at this link . We have designed the Wizard for non-developers and analysts with light technical skills. It features a richer experience for the users on the web, traditionally only offered by thick-client UIs. The collaboration team assembles groups of business rules into a business use case and published in a metadata file or the database. OpenLexicon provides solid support for web services. You can read about the OpenLexicon WSDL here . There is also an eclipse plug-in for web services here . You create complex application behavior with OpenLexicon’s process management. OpenLexicon can build an application reads data from a file, performs reference data lookups, validates the entire object, and then stores it in a database table. You can read about this here . Plus, you can build the application in the Wizard while writing no code! OpenLexicon also supports web services. A simple architecture diagram for OpenLexicon is included here .
In diesem Buch werden alle relevanten modernen Standards der Geschäftsprozessanalyse und -modellierung miteinander verbunden und ihre praktische Handhabung dargestellt.
Kern des Buches ist eine Geschäftsprozess-Methodik, die die verschiedenen Standards in praxisrelevanter und harmonischer Weise verbindet. Sie erfahren, welche Standards es gibt, wofür und wie diese eingesetzt werden können und welche Möglichkeiten aber auch möglichen Einschränkungen in der Praxis damit verbunden sind. Basis sind die BPMN (Business Process Modeling Notation), OSM (...), BMM (...), SBVR (..) und UML (...) - wobei diese Standards zielgerichtet nur soweit behandelt werden, wie es für die Auseinandersetzung mit Geschäftsprozessen notwendig ist.
Sie erfahren wie Strategien, Geschäftsregeln und Geschäftsprozesse dargestellt werden können und welche Strukturierungsmöglichkeiten es für Unternehmensarchitekten es gibt.
Das Buch richtet sich an Business-Analysten, Prozessdesigner, Betriebsorganisatoren und verwandte Rollen.
- leave anything related to transport, communication to other layers- use this revised CEP to express and execute event-relevant logic, the purpose of which is to translate the ambient events into relevant business events- have these business events trigger business processes (however lightweight you want to make them)- have these business processes invoke decision services implemented through decision management to decide what they should be doing at every step- have the business processes invoke action services to execute the actions decided by the decision services- all the while generating business events or ambient events- etc.
business processes and business rules capturing the operational logic and decisioning logic respectively.
To study this analysis, we first need to understand theory which is the basis of their analysis i.e. BWW. Representational analysis is basically comparing constructs of representation theory with the constructs of the modeling grammar. The two evaluation criteria used are ontological completeness which determines the extent of lack of constructs in modeling grammar and ontological clarity. Now BWW is the representational theory to represent real world and has been earlier used to benchmark many languages. SRML and SBVR are compared to BWW to benchmark their representational power.
Highly-ordered arrays of parallel carbon nanotubes were grown by pyrolysis of acetylene on cobalt within a hexagonal close-packed nanochannel alumina template at 650 °C. The nanotubes are characterized by a narrow size distribution, large scale periodicity, and high densities. Using this method ordered nanotubes with diameters from 10 nm to several hundred nm and lengths up to 100 µm can be produced. The high level of ordering and uniformity in these arrays is useful for applications i...
Open Source the BPMspace product is free to use, open for extensions and independent of its owners
Agile BPMspace processes can be easily adapted to the frequent changes in real life
Relational BPMspace relates business process objects (of different kinds) to each other, similar to records in different tables of a relational database.
In contrast to most database applications, the BPMspace data model (ontology) can be extended at runtime, without development effort.
Business Process Warehouse BPMspace maintains a repository of integrated process data, available for all types of queries, analysis, monitoring and (business) performance management
