"En mettant en perspective l’ergonomie et le BPM, nous retrouvons la ligne de fracture traditionnelle entre l’activité réelle et l’activité prescrite que connaissent bien les ergonomes. La notion d’activité réelle n’est pas du tout appréhendée par le BPM. Le fait de considérer le contexte, le fait de s’adapter face à des aléas qui ne peuvent pas être définis, anticipés, sont des capacités propres aux acteurs humains. Les systèmes d’information, basés sur des automatismes, ne peuvent présenter ces capacités."

On assiste [...] à une babélisation dans ce domaine : description des processus métiers avec des outils et des modèles propriétaires ( Mega , IDS Scheer Aris, ....), modélisation des couches applicatives en UML, des couches d'infrastructure en Visio, etc.

The following slides have been presented at a workshop on Business Process Automation, held at the 2004 Americas Conference on Information Systems in New York, NY, on August 5th, 2004.

Discover how business process management (BPM) fits into the Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) life cycle.

Human workflow is nothing more than a specific process pattern, and BPEL is largely sufficient to support it. Anyone telling you that BPEL does not support workflow is lying to you, and the best evidence for it are Intalio’s and Oracle’s products.

We did not make it because our revenues are less than $20M. According to such a criteria, a company like JBoss would not make it either. Go figure… Yet, I tend to believe that Gartner is not really supportive of Open Source in general

BPEL is fine for developers that are looking to link XML Web services, but may not be as effective for business users within the enterprise at large, who are working with all sorts of local objects, legacy systems and data types.

BPEL isn't about visibility, and it's not about change management, yet those are the central problems of business process management. BPEL as a technology is orthogonal to the problem of business process management. It's simply a new way to write code.

There recently has been a big realization that "Human BPM" is very important. IBM and SAP release their BPEL4People white paper. BEA buys Fuego, a notable human workflow vendor. Oracle prepares new human capabilities above (and possibly separate) from their BPEL engine. And Microsoft talks about their Workflow Foundation, which is also separate from their BizTalk EAI.

I would like to point out that workflow management systems are at the very initial phase of the technology hype curve
