A system and method for constructing and deploying a business activity monitoring (BAM) dashboard associated with an event-based process are disclosed. A configuration module receives an event-based process identifier for an event-based process and data, such as inputs or outputs, for the event-based process. A generation module then generates a dashboard description that includes the identifier and an associated dashboard template having one or more dashboard components. This dashboard description is used by a dashboard server to automatically generate a BAM dashboard for monitoring the event-based process by using the association between the dashboard template and the event-based process to display data associated with the event-based process using one or more dashboard components.

In certain example embodiments of this invention, there is provided systems and/or methods for processing BAM-related data to predict when events of interest are about to happen and/or to identify the root causes of, or at least data correlated with, such events of interest. In certain example embodiments, key performance indicators (KPIs) are gathered and gardened. The gardening process may identify KPI values of interest (e.g., based on a Z-factor analysis thereof across one or more collection intervals). The gardened KPIs may be processed using a time-series transform (e.g., a Fast Fourier Transform), matched to one of a plurality of predefined waveforms, and fed into a dynamic Naïve Bayesian Network (NBN) for prediction. The gardened data also may be used to determine the relevance of the KPI for root causes of problems (e.g., based on a chi-square analysis).

In certain example embodiments, application integration techniques for managing and/or monitoring a business process comprising a plurality of activities, events, and/or objects located in at least one resource external to the application integration system and a process engine thereof are provided. During design time, by introspecting the business object types involved in the activities, events, and/or objects of the at least one resource, potential state changes may be identified, and an integrative linkage may be established, with the integrative linkage being managed and maintained by a process monitoring agent (PMA). During runtime, the PMA may “listen” to the business object state changes in the at least one external resource and notify the local process engine accordingly.

The invention provides novel systems, methods and software for business activity monitoring. In one aspect of the invention, for example, events can be monitored and/or evaluated before the data is stored in a database. This can provide for real-time business activity monitoring and, in some cases, can prevent the database from becoming a bottleneck in the monitoring process. Merely by way of example, a business activity monitor process might be implemented in a middleware layer between an enterprise application and the database that is used to store data for the application.

A stabilization methodology and system component in Business Activity Monitoring and Management systems. This enables firms to use Business Activity Management (BAM) systems to manage business activity by only responding to monitored data when the overall business performance can be improved. This enables firms to identify appropriate tradeoffs between potentially conflicting objectives while meeting business objectives. Information from BAM systems are analyzed based on models of the business process and different information filter criteria are assessed for their impact on business performance indicators. Based on this, a filter criterion is chosen which is executed by an information filter. The outputs from the information filter are used as the basis for deciding the inputs for business process execution.
