Abstract

This article describes how in the last decade, business process repositories have grown significantly and the need for new processes to answer increasing market demands, has become a central interest of modern enterprises. However, developing open source business processes (BP) from scratch is one of the most time-consuming and high-cost tasks. Therefore, reusing mechanisms becomes a priority to deal with this issue. In this article, it is proposed that an open source user-friendly framework that mixes parts of existing process components to build a new process, in order to respond to a particular goal. This is known as business process mashup (BP_Mashup). The BP_mashup framework presented in this article allows users to perform a mixture of process fragments using a simple interface with a set of graphical and temporal events operators based on a formal model.
