    Most process research relies heavily on the use of terms and concepts whose validity depends on a variety of assumptions to be met. As it is difficult to guarantee that they are met, such work continually runs the risk of being invalid. We propose a different and complementary approach to understanding process: Perform all description bottom-up and based on hard data alone. We call the approach actual process and the data actual events. Actual events can be measured automatically. This paper describes what has been done in this area already and what are the core problems to be solved in the future

    An executable graphical representation of mediatory information systems

    In this paper we present an approach towards a unified modeling and query-processing tool for mediatory information systems. Based upon Coloured Petri-nets we are able to model the integration of parametric data (external, uncertain and temporal informations) and visualize the dataflow in mediatory information systems

    Implementation of an Executable Graphical Representation of GAPs Based on Petri-nets

    this report is as follows: Firstly, the generalized annotated logic, the well-founded semantics and the Coloured Petri-net formalisms are described shortly.Next, the extended Petri-net model is presented, in the first instance without negated literals and subsequently including them. Chapter 4 addresses the architecture of GAPCAD, and the final chapter discusses some further issues and an outlook. This text does not cover GAPCADs actual purpose: Toserve as a front-end for developing mediatory knowledge bases for the integration of heterogeneous and inconsistent information source

    this paper, we will concentrate on the task of programming. With ongoing investment in formalizing the design process and in using tools to support the Utilizing the Micro-processes of Software Development for Defect Prevention 3 construction of well-defined design documents, the ideas presented here can be extended to design activities of software development as wel

    ElectroCodeoGram: An Environment for Studying Programming

    No full text
    Research on programming behaviour requires the analysis of a huge amount of observational data. It would be helpful to have tool support in collecting and summarizing these data containing basic programming events. This paper introduces ElectroCodeoGram (ECG), a modular framework consisting of event collectors (called sensors), pattern recognizers (called modules), and other infrastructure to offer help in this respect
