IMAS: An Integrated Manufacturing Application Server for BPR

AbstractInformation management systems should be reconfigured rapidly to respond to the change of requirements in Business Process Re-engineering domain. Inspired by the trend mentioned above, we proposed the notion of IMAS (An Integrated Manufacturing Application Server for BPR) and researched the connotation of it. Firstly, as the instruction system definition of IMAS, a special BPR language DTBP (Data Translate of Business Process) was described in detail. Secondly, we gave the hierarchical architecture of IMAS which consists of communication layer, platform layer and application layer, and all of the three layers were illustrated in detail. In the end, we make conclusion of this paper and point the future works

Temporal meta-model framework for Enterprise Information Systems (EIS) development

This thesis has developed a Temporal Meta-Model Framework for semi-automated Enterprise System Development, which can help drastically reduce the time and cost to develop, deploy and maintain Enterprise Information Systems throughout their lifecycle. It proposes that the analysis and requirements gathering can also perform the bulk of the design phase, stored and available in a suitable model which would then be capable of automated execution with the availability of a set of specific runtime components
