Abstract

To satisfy the requirement of developing software rapidly for business processes with compensation, a special kind of computation independent model with compensation named well-structured associated business process model was researched. The model mapping method for compensation events and tasks was also proposed. The computation independent model was designed using XML Process Definition Language 2.1 version. It can be directly mapped to flowchart model in Windows Workflow Foundation 4.0 version, and the tool for model conversion and testing was implemented on the Windows platform. Experiment results shows that this method satisfies the functional requirement of processes compensation, and improves the speed of software development for business processes.
