A business process management (BPM) system, a business event processing system, and a business visibility system are integrated into a responsive process management platform using standardized messages to permit communication and collaboration among the systems. The BPM system has the capability to model and execute at least one monitoring process including at least one monitoring workstep. This monitoring process makes visible in the BPM system processes of interest that are executing in external systems. The business event processing system and/or the business visibility system have tools to allow users to easily configure those systems to sense events and send appropriate standardized messages to the other systems, can extract and send data to the BPM system, and can send alerts to the BPM system.

System and method for responsive process management driven by business visibility and complex event processing

A system and method for configuring an event-based process are disclosed. A configuration module receives input describing an event-based process or modifications to an event-based process. For example, the configuration module receives as input a graphical depiction of one or more states and state transitions that comprise at least a portion of the event-based process. Using the received input description, the configuration module generates executable data, such as data formatted as an event processing language, corresponding to the input. The executable data is then communicated to an event engine which executes the executable data to implement the event-based process or modifications to an event-based process corresponding to the received input. One or more aspects of the execution of the event-based process may also be visualized, and graphically modified, though an event monitoring module.

Event-based process configuration

A system and method for constructing and deploying a business activity monitoring (BAM) dashboard associated with an event-based process are disclosed. A configuration module receives an event-based process identifier for an event-based process and data, such as inputs or outputs, for the event-based process. A generation module then generates a dashboard description that includes the identifier and an associated dashboard template having one or more dashboard components. This dashboard description is used by a dashboard server to automatically generate a BAM dashboard for monitoring the event-based process by using the association between the dashboard template and the event-based process to display data associated with the event-based process using one or more dashboard components.
