A model-driven approach is used in Business Solution Monitoring and Control environment. The solution is first described by the high level abstract Platform Independent Model (PIM), which is independent from platform and implementation technologies. This PIM is presented as a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) that is constructed by a series of models described in XML. Then the PIM is decomposed into several sub-processes that can be easily transformed into an executable representation, such as BPEL (Business Process Execution Language) or JAVA. BPEL is used as the example to show the model transformation.

A mechanism of specification of business process templates, to capture commonly performed business activities / workflows / projects within a business organization and encourage reuse of best practices. Long transaction workspaces based business process template execution mechanism are presented, which have several advantages over existing business process execution mechanisms in web collaboration frameworks. This execution approach provides support for an isolated environment for business process execution. This isolates the changes made on different resources while executing a business process from the external world until the business process completes. It enables the ability to concurrently manipulate same resources in different components of a business process, and later resolve conflicts if any and merge the different views of the same resource manipulated by different components of a business process. It also enables easy and effective mechanisms for error recovery and rollback during business process execution.
