| Solution name | ARIS CBP extension |
| Result type | Modelling tool |
| Description/functionality | ARIS is an enterprise modelling tool. The Architecture of Integrated Information Systems (ARIS) supports the modelling of Event-driven Process Chains (EPC). ARIS has been extended to support the methodology for modelling of CBPs on the business level. To model CBPs each partner starts from a private process describing the steps executed in its organisation. Then a view process is created that provides a process-oriented interface to the partners whilst at the same time hiding internal process steps that should not be published. The CBP then links the view processes of all partners and defines at which steps data and messages area exchanged between partners. |
| Benefits to interoperability |
- Implementation of view approach into business level modelling tools
- Support of required CBP mechanism that selectively hides details of private processes, whilst providing a process-oriented interface to the outside world
