BPM + BRM = Greater than the Sum of the Parts
Posted by Kai-Uwe Schwarzwaelder on Jun 30, 2008

This includes all topics around Business Rules Management, Business Process Management, Business Performance Management, Business Intelligence, Decision Management and other analytic activities.

Well, The Open Group (TOG) is a vendor-neutral and technology-neutral consortium, whose vision of Boundaryless Information Flow™ will enable access to integrated information, within and among enterprises, based on open standards and global interoperability (that is what they say about themselves :-) )…

Posted by Marwane El Kharbili on Jun 23, 2008
This article is a continues the previous article about business rules and vocabularies. Just as business processes and data form an important asset for any organization, they form the central asset for a rule-enabled organization, too. The knowledge accumulated by companies, their experience in the market, in taking and propagating decisions throughout the whole organizational structure, can be partly represented by rules, complementing business documents, knowledge bases, manuals, and business data models…

Euro-SOX - The 8th EU Directive
Posted by Martin Kling on Jun 19, 2008
Talking about financial reporting is an abstract topic for many. Even more if the topic of the speech is about the European directive on the regulation of auditing companies.

The main focus of ARIS ProcessWorld and ARIS User Day is on sharing best practices between ARIS users by having many different presentations and discussion rounds. As there are so many ARIS users around, it is, of course, a good idea to also ask them about how they experience the usage of the different ARIS products. This is done during the conference in the ARIS Usability Lab…
What is SOA?
Posted by Sebastian Stein on Jun 18, 2008
If I am not live blogging from ARIS ProcessWorld, you can find me at the SOA booth in the exhibition area, where we demo our SOA product. It seems the interest in SOA is growing. Many people are passing by who have read about it and who want to see what’s behind. One common question is about a very short introduction to SOA. So let’s try that here as well…
