PRIETO, Álvaro E. e LOZANO-TELLO, Adolfo. Workflow Adaptation based on Ontologies. RISTI [online]. 2014, n.14, pp.67-82. ISSN 1646-9895. https://doi.org/10.17013/risti.14.67-82.
Administrative workflows are used in enterprises and public institutions but, in order to use them adequately in their different areas and departments, they must be adapted to the particular conditions of each one, complying with the general regulations of the process established at the top level. This problem, called Hierarchical Adaptation Problem, also implies establishing the proper measures to accomplish when the general regulation is changed. Such measures must maintain the consistency among the different levels by means of the propagation of the changes to all the adaptations. To solve this problem, this work presents the Hierarchical Adaptation Method. A method based on ontologies that defines the rules that must satisfy a generic workflow to be considered adaptable to different application cases and the rules that must satisfy the adaptations. Moreover, it provides the operations that facilitate both adaptation of administrative workflows and propagation of changes.
