Abstract

A business process consists of a set of activities which are performed in a coordination way to obtain an objective. Sometimes the definition of this objective using only a classic business processes management is not possible. When the choreography of the processes cannot be defined with a combination of tasks using sequences, conditions, ’xor’, ’or’ and ’split’ control flow patterns, another representation and solution are necessary to be used. This problem makes difficult the decision making in software management projects. In this paper a way to describe a process agreement is described where the execution and the number of tasks execution order of the Web Services cannot be defined. As a case study, the resource distribution in a multiproject development environment is used. In this case, the processes have to achieve an agreement in function of the business rules that relate the processes. In order to achieve this objective, the Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems are used to model and solve this type of problems.
