Abstract

Systems and methods for dynamic parallel looping in process runtime environment are described herein. A currently processed process-flow instance of a business process reaches a dynamic loop activity including a repetitive task to be executed with each loop cycle. A predefined expression is evaluated on top of the current data context of the process-flow instance to discover a number of loop cycles for execution within the dynamic loop activity. A number of parallel activities corresponding to the repetitive task recurrences are instantiated and executed in parallel. The results of the parallel activities are coordinated to confirm that the dynamic loop activity is completed.
