Dynamic Context Modeling for Agile Case Management

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 8186))

Abstract

Case Management processes are characterized by their high unpredictability and, thus, cannot be handled following traditional process- or activity-centered approaches. Adaptive Case Management paradigm proposes an alternative data-centered approach for management such processes. In this paper, we elaborate on this approach and explore the role of context data in Case Management. We use the state-oriented representation of the process that allows us to incorporate the contextual information in a systematic and transparent way, leading towards agile case management.
