A Software Innovation by eMundo and University of Augsburg
In a recent study of Gartner's Executive Program (EXP) business processes optimization with service-enabled applications is on the CIO's high priority agenda. At the same time a German study for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) has confirmed this business need especially for Germany's distinct high share of SMEs.
AgilPro is a process integration framework based on a service orientated architecture (SOA). AgilPro integrates existing ERP (enterprise resource planning), material management and proprietary data processing systems using service adapters. Particularly SMEs are known to use isolated solutions which prevent integrated process flow. AgilPro Integration Framework will help to close this gap.
The AgilPro Tools for Modeling and Simulation are realized in a joint venture project with the University of Augsburg/Germany, Institute of Computer Science, Prof. Dr. Bernhard Bauer. The AgilPro Modeler is based on the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) and Graphical Modeling Framework (GMF). The AgilPro Modeler team has joined the Java WorkFlow Toolbox Project (JWT). The JWT project is a proposed open source project under the Eclipse Technology Project.
The service adapters for ERP and production planning systems are realized in cooperation with the system vendor Helium V ERP Systeme GmbH.
AgilPro is promoted by the Bavarian Ministry of Economic Affairs and Technology within the scope of the research program "High-Tech-Offensive Zukunft Bayern".
The AgilPro Light Modeler (LiMo) for modeling and simulation will be available free of charge with base adapters (Q4/2006). Available base adapters will be: Word, Excel, Acrobat/PDF, Internet Explorer, Firefox and OpenOffice. LiMo runs on Windows, Linux and Mac-OS-X.
Those who would like to model and simulate their own enterprise processes with the free version may register at: register@agilpro.de.
Process modeling applies to the documentation of business processes as well as to the development of organization guidelines for ISO-9000 and ITIL (IT Infrastructure Library).
Information about planned adapters and B2B-Interfaces (e. g. myOpenFactory) may requested at: info@agilpro.de.
