Abstract

The paper presents a case study of modelling real-case industrial scenario of a grain-trading Polish company with Unified Process Metamodel (UPM). UPM is a novel approach for continuous process modelling. Many industrial processes, such as grain storage, are hard to describe by the use of conventional tools. With this example the authors emphasize the benefits of continuous process modeling paradigm over the token-based methodology and show the facilities of storage modeling and behavioral annotation in the UPM.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Flowing Resource (FR) is one the main UPM concept.

  2. 2.

    The actual number of storage units in AGROPOL Ltd. is higher than shown; however it was limited in the paper for the sake of simplification.
