The speed with which today's businesses have to adapt to ever-changing circumstances and the complexity required to remain ahead in a competitive environment have forced the development of automated business process systems. Business Process Implementation describes a new method for designing and implementingoffice workflow systems.This method was developed by Graham Twaddle and his colleagues, and has been analysed and described by Michael Jackson, one of the pre-eminent contributors to current software development practices. It has been tried and tested by Sherwood International UK who have incorporated it into their award-winning Logicware software support system. The method consists of a carefully crafted combination of data and process modelling that permits highly parallel, and therefore highly efficient and flexible workflow. Moreover, it embodies a novel approach to database design and implementation that gives many of the benefits usually ascribed to object orientation but requires only a conventional relational database environment.Key Features of the book include: - A clear and insightful description of the method, its range of applicability and its use.- Innovative diagram and textual notations for data and process modelling.- A thorough description of the Logicware software support system which provides insight into implementation issues and shows how to mechanize and simplify development.- Questions at the end of each chapter, providing readers with an opportunity to check their understanding of the concepts involved. This book will be invaluable for anyone who has to develop and use business systems for information and administration and especially to those working inan environment where office workflow is an important concern. It will provide the reader with a way of clearly documenting the processes and process-related knowledge that are the end result of a Business Process Reengineering study. It also provides an approach to implementing the reengineered processes that has been tried and tested successfully in large systems for critical business applications.Michael Jackson has worked in software for thirty five years during which time he has been involved in all aspects of program and system development. In 1971 he started his own company offering courses, project support and tools for software developers. He now works as an independent consultant in London and works part-time in software development research at AT&T Research in New Jersey. He played the leading role in developing the JSP and JSD methods of program and system development, and described them in his previous books Principles of Program Design and System Development. His most recent book Software Requirements and Specifications was published by Addison Wesley in June 1995.Graham Twaddle is technical Director of Sherwood International a company specialising in the design and production of computer systems for the insurance industry.
