Abstract

A method for automated process distribution includes selecting a process definition; identifying a first process portion and at least one second process portion in the process definition; generating a first further process definition for the first process portion; generating a second further process definition for each the second process portion; generating a corresponding service definition for each the second further process definition. In the method, generating the first further process definition includes generating a process definition element configured to invoke at least one service of the service definitions, and generating the second further process definition includes generating a process definition element configured to offer a service of the service definition corresponding to that second further process definition.
