This week Hans Weigand and his PhD student Jeewani Jayasinghe from Tilburg University visited us for doing research on value based service modeling. We discussed the relationships between web services and “real” services and how conflicts can be detected when combining services. Hans also gave a presentation on value encounters as a means for capturing the logic of co-creation of value.
Last week Dr. Chun Ouyang from the BPM group at QUT visited us. She used the opportunity to stop over in Stockholm after her conference trip to the 6th IEEE European Conferecne on Web Services held 12-14 November in Dublin.
Chun is known for her work on mapping BPMN to BPEL and BPEL to Petri nets. Recently Chun has been involved in the implementation of YAWL4Film. YAWL4Film is an extension of YAWL for supporting the film production process in the film industry in Australia. At DSV Chun gave a very interesting and inspiring presentation of this work. More about it can be read here.
Chun’s visit is a continuation of our cooperation with the BPM group at QUT, which I regularly visit (latest in July-August 2008).
During Chun’s one week stay at DSV we worked on:
– Migration of YAWL4Film and the Conference case to the new release of YAWL, YAWL 2.0
– A new project proposal at QUT, which will be related to our project proposal on Service Oriented Architecture for Knowledge Intensive Processes– The book chapters for the YAWL book in which we are involved.
Thanks for your visit Chun!
