A Model-driven Architecture for Collaborative Business Processes

The Model Driven Engineering was developed to make application development more flexible, it provides a comprehensive interoperability framework for defining interconnected systems, and aims to reduce the inherent complexity that partners must face when developing their systems. In collaborative environments where systems are made through the collaboration of several departments or companies, the MDA (Model Driven Architecture) approach seems efficient in maintaining and developing this type of system. This paper show the use of MDE in the context of business process management and present in detail an architecture for the development of collaborative business processes.

Automated summary

Model Driven Engineering aims to provide a flexible framework for defining interconnected systems and reducing complexity in application development. In collaborative environments, the MDA approach is considered effective in maintaining and developing systems.
