Distributed Dynamic Condition Response Structures

Abstract

We present distributed dynamic condition response structures as a declarative process model in-spired by the workflow language employed by our industrial partner and conservatively generalizing labelled event structures. The model adds to event structures the possibility to 1) finitely specify re-peated, possibly infinite behavior, 2) finitely specify fine-grained acceptance conditions for (possibly infinite) runs based on the notion of responses and 3) distribute events via roles. We give a graph-ical notation inspired by related work by van der Aalst et al and formalize the execution semantics as a labelled transition system. Exploration of the relationship between dynamic condition response structures and traditional models for concurrency, application to more complex scenarios, and further extensions of the model is left to future work.
