Аннотация

Business process networks (BPN), also referred to as business service networks or business process hubs, enable the efficient execution of multi-enterprise operational processes, including supply chain planning and execution. A BPN extends and implements an organization's Service-orientation in Enterprise Applications. To execute such processes, BPNs combine integration services with application services, often to support a particular industry or process, such as order management, logistics management, automated shipping and receiving, and others. This book is your ultimate resource for Business Process Networks (BPN). Here you will find the most up-to-date information, analysis, background and everything you need to know.
