Download or read book Workflow Management written by Kees Van Hee and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2004-01-30 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive introduction to workflow management, the management of business processes with information technology. By defining, analyzing, and redesigning an organization's resources and operations, workflow management systems ensure that the right information reaches the right person or computer application at the right time. The book provides a basic overview of workflow terminology and organization, as well as detailed coverage of workflow modeling with Petri nets. Because Petri nets make definitions easier to understand for nonexperts, they facilitate communication between designers and users. The book includes a chapter of case studies, review exercises, and a glossary. A special Web site developed by the authors, www.workflowcourse.com, features animation, interactive examples, lecture materials, exercises and solutions, relevant links, and other valuable resources for the classroom.

Download or read book Responsive Design Workflow written by Stephen Hay and published by Pearson Education. This book was released on 2013 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In our industry, everything changes quickly, usually for the better. We have more and better tools for creating websites and applications that work across multiple platforms. Oddly enough, design workflow hasn't changed much, and what has changed is often for worse. Old-school workflow is simply not effective on our multiplatform web. Fixed-width Photoshop comps and overproduced wireframes are no longer the way to design for today's multi-platform web. This book provides a practical approach for "designing in the browser." It shows how to better manage client expectations and development requirements, and offers a method of design documentation.

Download or read book Work Workflow and Information Systems written by William B. Rouse and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together several perspectives on the nature of work processes in enterprises and how information systems can best support these processes. The genesis of this idea was the shared interests of the authors in how enterprises improve and change. The shared belief is that change of enterprises relates to change of work processes and the success of such changes relates to how work processes are supported by information systems. Thus, the papers in this volume address both the nature of work and the design of information systems to support work. This volume is divided into two main sections: work and workflow, and information systems. There are three papers in each section. The disciplines represented across these six papers include management, engineering, computing, and architecture. These four disciplines pursue work, workflow, and information systems from quite different perspectives - management to represent business practices and processes, engineering to represent the physical flows in the system, computing to represent the information flows, and architecture to represent human flows within and among physical spaces. Enterprises, of course, include all these types of flows.
Download or read book Workflow Management Systems for Process Organisations written by Thomas Schäl and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1998-11-11 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book introduces the perspective of customer-driven and teamwork-oriented process organisation. Its aim is to design and test concepts of Computer Supported Cooperative Work, especially concepts for workflow management systems, in order to fundamentally improve business processes in enterprises. Its methodological approach to analysis and design of cooperative networks is a response to shortcomings of current support systems and misunderstandings about cooperative work and team-based organisations. Several different commercial workflow management systems are presented and distinguished in terms of their main characteristics. Novel kinds of business process analysis are proposed, leading to interesting new combinations of information and cooperation technologies. The book not only presents ways to get around the pitfalls resulting from a naive use of these technologies, but also identifies design guidelines and critical success factors."--PUBLISHER'S WEBSITE.
Download or read book Production Workflow written by Frank Leymann and published by Prentice Hall. This book was released on 2000 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suicide cannot be read as simply another novel ”it is, in a sense, the author "s own oblique, public suicide note, a unique meditation on this most extreme of refusals. Presenting itself as an investigation into the suicide of a close friend ”perhaps real, perhaps fictional ”more than twenty years earlier, Lev gives us, little by little, a striking portrait of a man, with all his talents and flaws, who chose to reject his life, and all the people who loved him, in favor of oblivion. Gradually, through Lev "s casually obsessive, pointillist, beautiful ruminations, we come to know a stoic, sensible, thoughtful man who bears more than a slight psychological resemblance to Lev himself. But Suicide is more than just a compendium of memories of an old friend; it is a near-exhaustive catalog of the ramifications and effects of the act of suicide, and a unique and melancholy farewell to life.

Download or read book Workflows and Sharepoint written by Gustavo Velez and published by Krasis Press. This book was released on 2009-04 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Workflows and SharePoint: Going with the Flow' was written by a developer for developers; a comprehensive reference to guide users - step-by-step - through the process of creating a workflow. A case study allows the reader to follow the development of a flow, incorporating the myriad of possibilities and tools available to the developer. The book's approach is 'no-nonsense'; based on clearly-defined examples it describes and demonstrates the possibilities and applications of workflows in SharePoint. The programming examples graduate from basics, generating configurations with Sequential and State Machine Workflows, to more complex themes using ASPX and InfoPath Forms. An attempt has been made to identify potential errors and problems and to provide solutions or workarounds, and in situations where that is not possible, to point the reader in the best direction for answers. 'Workflows and SharePoint: Going with the Flow' is divided into five areas for easy reference. The first two parts focus on information for the general reader; introducing the architecture and use of workflows followed by a description of the use of SharePoint Designer to create flows without programming. Part 3 provides information for the creation of Sequential and State Machine Workflows using Visual Studio and flows over into the next section covering the creation and development of Forms (Part 4). Finally, Part 5 reviews Activities, their use in Visual Studio and SharePoint Designer, and goes on to discuss other 'bits and pieces' related to programming workflows for SharePoint. 'Workflows and SharePoint 2007: Going with the Flow' is the kind of reference book that belongs on every developers bookshelf.
