Abstract
An architecture, system, and method are provided for a commitment loop solution for on demand business activity management. A Business Performance Management (BPM) loop includes nodes each relating to different tasks for processing performance management trigger data generated by a business entity in real time. The beginning or sensing element of the loop is triggered by a token (representing a business event from a business process). The ending or executing element provides a business action to be implemented by the business entity. The token is passed from node to node sequentially in a particular order around the loop. Processing of the data represented by the token is governed by policies, which can be changed dynamically and follow a life cycle.
