In the theoretical part of the course, students will learn the basic concept of workflow modeling. Thereby, the lecture puts a special focus on automated workflows, integrating different kinds of enteprise applications. Furthermore, patterns for designing and modeling enterprise-wide workflows are introduced.
In the practical part of the course, students form groups of five. Each group has to design and implement a process-oriented application. The domain of the application can be freely chosen, however, the respective business processes have to be designed with a tool producing BPMN 2.0 conformant code and under consideration of the learned patterns. Afterwards, the business process models shall be deployed to a workflow engine. Further the respective business logic of the workflow activities has to be implemented, where each member has to implement at least one activity. Finally, each team evaluates its process by letting other groups acting as customers of the process.
