Introduction to Business Process


We often hear the word business processes, but do you know what the true meaning of the business process? business processes can be defined a joint activity undertaken to achieve a goal that later would result in a profit. How can it be said to be an activity is a business process? an activity can be said if business process can meet or at least approaching from the characteristics of typical business processes including: the definitive, order, customer, value added, description and cross functionality. whether the benefits of the implementation of the business process? business process has benefits, among others, for the achievement of the vision, mission, and goals as well as the basic determination of management responsibility. If viewed from its benefits, business processes can be done not only for a company only, but can also be used for our everyday lives. How does the cycle in business processes? cycle in business processes, namely phase requirement, Acquisition, Stewardship and Retirement. modeling of business processes has now been varied,availability of e-business processes recognised more flexible for It has been recognized as a flexible way for resource sharing and application integration. As the number of functional similar Web services increases, after Web services be selected that can best meet the requirements of the consumers, how to construct a kind of key business process performance (KBPP) model has been an ongoing research direction in business process performance management for Web services.

inside they site www.winscribe.com winscribe explained that the business process is A business process is the set of activities required to accomplish a common goal. The activities may be performed by people or systems and are completed either sequentially or in simultaneously. in other words it unconsciously businessprocesses has been performed by many of us in our daily lives. However, more specific again, many business processes performed in the activities to achieve profit. In an article on www.apian.com about the definition of business processes, they say that the business process is a collection of linked tasks which find their end in the delivery of a service or product to a client. another definition according to the character:
Davenport (1993) defines business processes as:
"measurable activity and structured to produce a specific output for a particular customer. There is in them a strong emphasis on the "how" the work was executed in an organization, not as the focus of the product which focuses on aspects of the "what". A process is therefore a specific sequence of work activities across time and space, with a prefix and suffix, and clearly defined inputs and outputs. "- Davenport, Thomas (1993), Process Innovation: Reengineering work through information technology, Harvard Business School Press, Boston.

Definition of Hammer and Champy's (1993) can be considered a derivative of Davenport's definition. They define a process as "a collection of activities that require one or more of the input and produce output useful/valuable to customers"-Hammer, Michael and Champy, James (1993), Reengineering the Corporation: A Manifesto for Business Revolution, Harper Business.
Web service composition is a more and more promising solution for building distributed applications on the e-business processes. It has been recognized as a flexible way for resource sharing and application integration. As the number of functional similar Web services increases, after Web services be selected that can best meet the requirements of the consumers, how to construct a kind of key business process performance (KBPP) model has been an ongoing research direction in business process performance management for Web services. 

Recently Web service has been recognized as the next generation framework for building agile distributed applications over the Internet. A composite service is usually modeled as a business process involving multiple component services. Web services are loosely-coupled, platform-independent, self-describing software components that can be published, located and invoked via the web infrastructure using a stack of standards such as SOAP, WSDL and UDDI. It offers a promising solution for building distributed applications on the ebusiness processes. People are able to rapidly design, implement, deploy and deliver various application functionalities using a standardized web services model. Service oriented computing advocates discovering, selecting and binding to services dynamically according to users’ requirements in functional aspects as well as in non-functional aspects, especially the quality of service (QoS).
