Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for modeling and controlling real and application processes in a data processing system and a data processing system for carrying out the method.
- the aim of the invention is to replace a real process or application process by an equivalent, programming-free method that is individualized exclusively by expressing rules.
- a data processing (data processing system consists of data and processes.
- the data has a data structure that is formed from entities (also: characteristic carriers) and attributes (also: characteristics), as well as from the connections (joins) between the attributes of these entities.
- entity also: characteristic carriers
- attributes also: characteristics
- the attributes can take values. These values are also referred to as (feature) values of the attributes.
- Entities are represented as database tables and attributes as columns of these tables.
- the characteristic values of all characteristics of a certain entity are saved as a record of this entity.
- the connections (joins) are not necessarily part of the relational database tables.
- the data of a data processing system may have different values at different times.
- the entirety of the values of all data at a given point in time is called the state of the data. Every time a value changes, the data assume a new state.
- Processes are data processing procedures with which the state of the data is changed, ie with the help of processes the values (values) of the data are changed.
- IT systems can be described by the structure of the data, the current data status and by the description of the permissible processes.
- the data processing system can be created exactly for a specific requirement, i.e. Both the data structure and the available processes have been developed precisely for a specific task. In this case, the entire programming is tailored to this requirement. (In general one speaks of a hard coded DV system.)
- the data processing system can have a very general structure, ie the programming covers a wide range of applications.
- the special requirement is not solved by special programming, but by entering special parameters or special rules.
- These parameters and rules are defined outside the coded program area in tables or other data memories and are used to control the program sequences.
- the respect ve i occurrences of the time parameters and rules then control the general computer system such that it satisfies exactly these parameters, the currently required individual and specific tasks.
- the main characteristic of this solution is the size of the application area, which can be covered by the hard-coded general program in connection with the value areas of parameters and rules.
- the invention is assigned to the DV systems of the second category and covers a wide range of applications.
- the present data processing system consists of a generic and generally applicable data structure and of generic and universally programmed processes, the generality relating to a large area of application, which is described in more detail below.
- the data processing system consists of an extensive set of parameters and rules with which this generic, general-purpose program can be adapted to a large number of very individual and special areas of application without the data structure or the programmed processes having to change.
- the areas of application of data processing systems are very different, so that they cannot be categorized exactly according to the expression of a single characteristic. However, certain categories have become common, such as technical or commercial areas of application.
- the invention relates to a data processing system which has a commercial or business application. In the literature, it would be assigned to ERP systems (Enterprise Resource Planning).
- Processes for the organization of exchange and production are understood to mean all business processes (processes, activities, business orders, work steps) which are necessary for the organization and implementation of exchange and production. They can be broken down into processes that serve to initiate, access, manage, change or end transactions according to the course of a business.
- the results of the processes of exchange and production result in a new state of the data of the data processing system. These describe the current goods, the status of the agreements (exchange) between the agreement partners, the status of the productions and the history of all operational processes carried out and the data generated thereby.
- the object of the invention is therefore to develop a generic data processing system with which all of these requirements for business data and business processes can be supported according to uniform principles and with flexible, individual specializations.
- This principle enables application processes to be replaced by standard processes that cause the same changes to the data.
- each standard entity can be supplemented with dynamic attributes and displayed in a time-dependent manner.
- 12 basic qualifications and 1 1 relations between the basic qualifications are provided.
- the 12 basic entities map: overall business. Retail business, spreadsheet. Service and its position on the calculation sheet, agreement, partner and its position on the agreement, service provider. Object. Business transaction, season. Time series and booking proposal, as explained in more detail below.
- a generic standard process PA exists of attributes for capturing, modifying and deleting de * forms for each base entity with its Atlributen.
- the respective tasks of the application processes can be modeled in three work steps (using rules, but without programming):
- selection rules have a fixed data structure with fixed rule attributes and relations and are only defined by variable values of the rule attributes and relations.
- the object of the invention is therefore a standard data processing system which consists of an unchangeable data structure and of generic and unchangeable standard processes. These processes or programs can be selected, arranged and adapted to individual requirements using control data with an unchangeable data structure and variable characteristics.
- the area of application of the method is the IT support of commercial business processes in which products (ie goods and services), , , ,
- the method according to the invention has the advantages that single and multiple applications of programs are possible with lower costs and in a shorter time in the mentioned field of application, a common platform is created for all existing front-end DV systems, and from this one platform all back-end systems Systems can be supplied with information. It is also possible to build a universal data warehouse with extensive calculation functions and to minimize the interfaces between existing front-end and back-end systems. Finally, the invention enables standardized, standardized and comparable documentation of all available business rules from different applications.
- FIG. 1 is a diagram schematically illustrating the method according to the invention.
- Fig. 2 is a similar, simplified representation of the method according to the invention as Fig l;
- Fig. 5 shows the allowable relations of the data model of Fig. 5.
- FIG. 6 shows a simplified model for explaining selected standard processes according to a preferred embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 1 shows a diagram for explaining the method according to the invention.
- an application process is represented by a box 10, which corresponds to a real sequence, with input application data 12 being input and output application data 14 being output.
- Application processes can be replaced by other processes if they cause the same changes to the data.
- the application data 12 are transformed into standard data 16, wherein the processed standard data 18 can be transformed back into the application data 14 if necessary.
- T 20
- D (t) T "1 DT (D (t)).
- the standard data 16, 18 have a fixed, unchangeable structure, i.e. fixed entities or feature carriers with fixed attributes and fixed relationships between the attributes, the entities corresponding to real objects and relationships.
- the standard data 16, 18 can be broken down into basic entities 24, 26, which each have attributes E.A, and basic relationships 28, 30, which exist between attributes of the basic entities.
- R (t) 28 there is also a standard process PR, 36. for recording, changing and deleting the values or values of the relations.
- the operation of this standard process PR, 36 is rule-based and is determined by control data RDR, 38.
- the RDR control data also has a fixed, unchangeable structure with fixed entities and associated attributes and with fixed relationships between these attributes.
- the application data D, 12 are in standard data SD. 16, transformed, which in turn are broken down into basic entities 24 and basic relations 28. All these data and relations have a fixed, unchangeable structure the basis of fixed, predefined attributes. For every base entity and for each base relation there are standard processes for entering, changing and deleting the entities or relations. The processes also have a fixed structure and are based on rules.
- the invention also provides for the establishment of a standard process PAR, 40, which builds up any combination of the standard processes PA and PR, the operation of this standard process PAR being rule-based and being determined by control data RDAR, 42.
- the standard process PAR, 40 is used to select and determine the sequence of the processes PA and PR for processing the basic entities and basic relations 24, 28.
- the control data RDAR, 42 have a fixed, predetermined structure with fixed entities and associated attributes and with fixed relations between these attributes.
- the application data D, 12 are transformed into standard data SD, 16 in such a way that suitable basic entities 24 and basic relations 28 are selected and the values or values of their attributes are assigned accordingly.
- suitable standard processes PA, 32 and PR, 36 are set up via the control data RDAR, 42, RDA, 34, and RDR, 38, in order to convert the standard data 16 with its attributes and relations into corresponding result standard data 18 associated attributes 26 and relations 30 to be transferred.
- the resulting standard data SD, 18 can then be transformed back into application data 14 by inverse transformation 22.
- Fig. 2 shows another representation of the same method according to the invention.
- the method according to the invention consists of three essential steps, which are designated 1, 2 and 3.
- step 1 the application data 12 of the application system required in each case is transformed into the standard data 16 of the standard data processing system according to the invention, in that the data of the application system with its entities, attributes and characteristics are assigned to the data of the standard data processing system with fixed entities, fixed attributes and variable characteristics.
- step 2 the required processes are selected in the correct order with the aid of selection rules 42 from a pool of generic standard processes 44 (32, 36 in FIG.
- the selection rules 42 have a fixed data structure and do not control the selection from the pool of standard processes 44 only through variable forms of the attributes and relations of these selection rules 42.
- Step 3 designates the working method of the selected standard processes 46 on the basis of working rules 48 (34, 38 in FIG. 1), these working rules 48 defining which characteristics the attributes and relations of the standard data 16 should take.
- the working rules 48 also have a fixed data structure and are only defined by variable expressions of their attributes and relations.
- One of the basic ideas of the present invention is that all basic entities, relations between basic entities and standard processes have a fixed structure.
- the data structure is described by the set of all entities with their attributes E.A and by all relations R between these attributes:
- Relationships ("joins" ') at the attribute level R ((E (i) .A (j)), (E (k) .A (l))), i.e. the attribute A (j) from entity E (i) is related to attribute A (l) from entity E (k) or R (ij, kl) for short.
- the data structure includes the immutable elements of the data.
- the values are the concrete values of the attributes and / or relations. Only attributes and / or relations have values.
- the characteristics of the data structure are the changeable elements of the data.
- the entirety of all occurrences of the data of the system at a specific time t is referred to as the state of the data of the system.
- a process describes how a specific state D (t) of the data at time t can be converted into a state D (t + 1) of the data at time D (t + 1).
- An application process AP (t, t + l) has the task of converting application data D from state D (t) to state D (t + 1), taking into account all effects of the process are, even those that will only occur in the future. In particular, the time-dependent effects on the attributes and the relationships of the application data must also be taken into account.
- An application process AP can be replaced by the following procedure:
- the application data can be read by the generic standard system.
- the standard data SD can always be broken down into the entities with their attributes E.A and the relations R between the attributes.
- the change of state of the standard data from SD (t) to SD (t + l) is called the change of state of the standard entities from EA (t) to EA (t + l) and the change of state of the standard relations from R (t) to R (t + 1).
- the change of state is carried out separately for each entity and for each relation.
- control data RDA for these processes PA (i) have a fixed, generic data structure and variable characteristics.
- the specific characteristics are determined by the replication of the application process.
- control data RDR for these processes PRO have a fixed, generic data structure and variable characteristics.
- the specific characteristics are determined by the replication of the application process.
- the control data RDAR (t, t + l) for these processes PAR (t, t + l) have a fixed, generic data structure and variable characteristics. The specific characteristics are determined by the replication of the application process.
- the data model according to the invention consists of 12 basic entities and the standard attributes assigned to them. This 12 entities allow the basic presentation of the financial data of all application systems in the business-commercial application area.
- the arrangement of input or output in the production process provides the basis for an implicit recalculation.
- Each contractually agreed service is described in terms of content by a service type of the same name and a consecutive identification number.
- Performance is the link between exchange and production. Produced services are marketed or procured through exchange processes.
- ⁇ can be procured or utilized within the framework of an agreement.
- the service is a commodity or service, the consideration is money.
- services and consideration are provided through cash flows.
- the scope of services describes those services that can be delivered under a specific type of contract.
- a service is delivered for each agreement. In the leasing area, for example, several services can be delivered within one agreement, such as transfer of use, insurance, claims processing, maintenance
- the relations reflect the connections between the entities of exchange and production. They form the exchange and production modules of the data model.
- the method according to the invention checks for each individual process whether the status of the system is sufficient for processing, i.e. whether there are enough entities and relations.
- a single transaction includes all components that describe the economic success (revenue, expenses, liquidity) of the individual transaction. However, there are cases in which a single transaction alone does not provide a complete overview of economic success.
- the history management technology and the complete management of the status mean that all business orders are reversible, i.e. all business orders can be canceled with an UNDO function while correcting all changed data.
- Processes (the so-called generic set of rules processes) that are able to read out the current rules - depending in part on conditions such as the status of the system - and to make orders available to the generic standard processes.
- interfaces Due to the underlying theory of exchange and production and the derived, general, valid data model for all commercial and economic applications, the interfaces, the standard processes and ultimately also the entities, attributes and relations of the set of rules - i.e. the entire set of rules - are fixed and unchangeable, regardless of the type of customization required.
- interface groups are used to identify selected standard processes, including their sequence for executing certain orders, as will be explained in more detail below.
- rules-based internal processes can be controlled on the basis of standard processes in order to execute certain predefined orders.
- the interfaces that can be called up from the outside provide the services of the system according to the invention for executing predefined orders to the outside. They use a set of generic, rule table-based standard processes internally.
- the data access can be done either individually or as a combination of several accesses. If several accesses are combined, the data is available in the main memory during longer processing chains. No reloading is then required for the control data SD (rules) either. When processing in single access, the data is read and written each time the interface is called.
- the data access layer has two options for storing the data (processing data, result data and control data), which is built and managed according to the principles of a relational database model: • Storage in relational form according to the data model presented here. This type of data storage requires a relational database management system.
