Abstract

Uslojavanje prezentacijske logike, poslovne logike te upravljanja protokom poslova u složenim sustavima preduvjet je za postizanje prilagodljivosti sustava. Ustanovljavanjem opæih svojstava modeliranog postupka omoguæuje se stvaranje modela protoka poslova na osnovu manjih parcijalno definiranih modela protoka poslova èime integralni model postaje elastièniji i otporniji na pogreške, a postupak izrade istovremeno postaje uèinkovitiji u odnosu na ruènu izgradnju integralnog modela.U radu su opisani načini definiranja parcijalnih modela protoka poslova te je omogućena njihova verifikacija i integracija, a zatim i pretvorba u operativni model protoka poslova nastao integracijom. Uočeni su potencijalni problemi te su osmišljena odgovarajuæa programska suèelja i algoritmi za rad s parcijalnim modelima protoka poslova. Predloženi parcijalni modeli, programska suèelja i algoritmi apstrahiraju konkretne implementacije parcijalnih modela te tako tvore generički okvir za modeliranje parcijalno definiranih modela protoka poslova. U sklopu rada razvijen je prototip aplikacije za izgradnju parcijalnih modela protoka poslova demonstriran na primjeru izrade rasporeda cjelina u sustavu za uèenje Adaptive Hypermedia Courseware (AHyCo) i na izradi studijskog programa po programu FER-2 Fakulteta elektrotehnike i raèunarstva. Disertacija završava zakljuèkom u kojem se iznosi kritièki osvrt na prikazana rješenja te se iznose potencijalne smjernice buduæeg istraživanja u podruèju rada s parcijalnim modelima protoka poslova.

Abstract (english)

Decoupling the presentation logic, business logic and workflow in a complex system is
essential to keep the system flexible. By identifying common properties of a workflow
model, the integral workflow model could be built using partially defined workflow models
that would make integral workflow model more flexible, less prone to errors, and more
time efficient than building an integrated workflow manually.
In the thesis, partially defined workflow models were introduced and the potential
problems during the process of integration, verification and transformation to operative
model were noted down. Novel algorithms with appropriate programming interfaces for
those problems have been presented. Proposed partially defined workflow models,
algorithms and interfaces form a generic framework and represent an abstraction over the
models concrete meanings.
An application prototype has been developed, demonstrated in two case studies: course
prerequisites modelling in a study curriculum and maintaining lessons order in AHyCO, a
learning management system used in current work environment.
Thesis ends with critical evaluation and guidelines for the future work related to partially
defined workflow models.
