An enterprise is represented by its process model that is constructed by the integration of smaller processes corresponding to value-added contributors. Replacing the sub-processes can modify the super-process. Component processes are represented in task systems in order to discover how process attributes will be preserved after integration. This approach is especially versatile if virtual enterprises are formed over the Internet through integrating the published processes of core competencies. The virtually constructed super-process can be exercised as a simulation before the real process is enacted. A final process is thus a composition of core-competency processes that is believed to yield an optimal enterprise operation. Core-competency processes from individual organizations are expected to be available to form value-added chains. Once matured, such a market of processes will offer alternatives by different organizations.

Formalization of core-competency processes for integration of value-add chains.
Manzer, Ayesha; Doğru, Ali Hikmet; Department of Computer Engineering (2002)
Process Models for the core-competency processes of enterprises are represented in task systems. For a virtual enterprise that is formed by an integration of the individual organizations' processes over the Internet, the preservation of some attributes is investigated. With the aid of task systems as a formalism that is borrowed from the operating systems theory, processes and attributes are modeled. The anticipated utilization is in the form of a tool that will aid the formation of virtual enterprises over...
Process ontology development using natural language processing: a multiple case study
Gurbuz, Ozge; Rabhi, Fethi; Demirörs, Onur (2019-09-17)
Purpose Integrating ontologies with process modeling has gained increasing attention in recent years since it enhances data representations and makes it easier to query, store and reuse knowledge at the semantic level. The authors focused on a process and ontology integration approach by extracting the activities, roles and other concepts related to the process models from organizational sources using natural language processing techniques. As part of this study, a process ontology population (PrOnPo) metho...
Composition Capability of Component-Oriented Development
Kaya, Muhammed Çağrı; Çetinkaya, Anıl; Doğru, Ali Hikmet (2017-10-30)
This research enhances component-oriented development approaches with the capability to represent the dynamic behavior of the final system through a process model. For an executable system, ordering of the message invocations should also be specified besides the definition of a set of components which only presents a static view. Components, however, are usually server kind software units that respond when a request is made. A central application can be expected to trigger some of the methods while some com...
An approach for decentralized process modeling
Turetken, Oktay; Demirörs, Onur (2007-05-20)
This paper describes a method for organizations to perform process modeling in a decentralized and concurrent manner. The approach is based on the idea that modeling organizations' processes can be performed by individuals actually performing the processes. Instead of having a central and devoted group of people to analyze, understand, model and improve processes, real performers are held responsible to model and improve their own processes concurrently. The paper also summarizes the lessons learned by appl...
Numerical calculation of backfilling of scour holes
Sumer, B Mutlu; Baykal, Cüneyt; Fuhrman, David R; Jacobsen, Niels G; Fredsoe, Jorgen (2014-12-04)
A fully-coupled hydrodynamic and morphologic CFD model is presented for simulating backfilling processes around structures. The hydrodynamic model is based on Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations, coupled with two-equation k-ω turbulence closure. The sediment transport model consists of separate bed and suspended load descriptions, the latter based on a turbulent diffusion equation coupled with a reference concentration function near the sea bed boundary. Bed morphology is based on the sediment continu...
