Exploring the impact of business rules consideration on processes in E-Business

Description

This item was taken from the IEEE Conference ' Exploring the impact of business rules consideration on processes in E-Business ' Business rules are supposed to enable a better process handling and decrease deployment time when changes in process logic occurs. Up until now, to the authors' knowledge, these arguments were perfectly as logic reasoning but without any quantitative proof. Here we present a short quantitative study from E-Business context on how a defined and implemented business rule as well as business event processing can affect the processing time of a business process. The simulation was made using a rather simple E-commerce scenario and complex event processing with Esper.
