A computer-implemented method for managing change of sets of processing information that describe a process flow includes receiving a first activity description describing a first activity for performing a process flow, receiving a first formula description describing a first input and an output of the process flow, receiving a second formula description describing a second input and the same output of the process flow, and associating the first activity description with one of the first formula description and the second formula description.

Change management of process flow descriptions

A method for describing a process flow includes receiving a first root-independent building block and a second root-independent building block, receiving assembly instructions for assembling the first building block and the second building block to describe the process flow, and linking the first building block to the second building block in accordance with the assembly instructions. The first building block describes a first activity and a second building block describes a second activity. The first activity and the second activity correspond to portions of the process flow.

Building blocks for describing process flows

Method and apparatus, including computer program product for customizing a process flow. The product includes instructions to cause a processor to receive a process flow description, receive a first resource description from a first remote system, customize the process flow description to the first resource description, receive a second resource description from a second remote system, and customize the process flow description to the second resource description. The process flow description describes a process flow. The first resource description describes resources deployable by the first remote system and the second resource description describes resources deployable by the second remote system. The product is tangibly stored on machine readable media.
