- 用多维度约束增强流程框架,支持更复杂的规则判断
- 在部分执行后推荐合规最优后续动作,提升流程自主性
- 适合需要高合规性的智能流程管理系统开发者
AI增强的业务流程管理系统(ABPMS)通过先进AI技术实现复杂流程的定义、执行与监控。本文提出一种新的‘情境自治’框架,使系统能在严格遵守预设约束的前提下,自主推进流程实例执行。现有研究多关注控制流约束,通常转换为自动机表示;本文则扩展了该方向,引入包含数据感知和时间条件在内的多视角约束,构建更丰富的流程框架。针对部分执行状态,新方法基于增强框架推荐符合规范的最优后续步骤。实证评估表明该技术具有良好的可扩展性与有效性,展现出在ABPMS中实现自主且约束敏感决策的巨大潜力。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
AI-Augmented Business Process Management Systems (ABPMS) enhance traditional BPMS by leveraging advanced AI techniques to define, execute, and monitor complex process structures. Within this landscape, Framed Autonomy denotes the capability of a system to autonomously advance the execution of a Business Process (BP) instance while strictly adhering to a predefined frame, i.e., a set of constraints that may span multiple perspectives. Existing research on framed autonomy has predominantly focused on control-flow constraints, either declarative or procedural, and typically relies on their transformation into automata-based representations. In this study, we extend this line of work by introducing a novel tool for what-if analysis that augments the process frame with multi-perspective constraints, including data-aware and temporal conditions. Given a partial process execution, the proposed approach exploits this enriched frame to recommend optimal continuations in compliance with the underlying process specifications. We additionally report an empirical evaluation demonstrating the scalability and effectiveness of the technique, thereby highlighting its potential for supporting autonomous and constraint-aware decision making in ABPMS.
