      becoming increasingly important: business processes control which piece of work
      will be performed by whom and which resources are exploited for this work, i.e.
      a business process describes how an enterprise will achieve its business goals.
      We sketch FlowMark, an IBM program product, supporting both the modeling of
      business processes and their execution.},

    abstract = {The goal of the STEP standard effort is to achieve integration of all
      applications in the product data area. For this purpose a huge collection of
      data models providing schemes for all data which have to be shared amongst
      these applications is standardized. Integration is defined to share data both,
      across a broad spectrum of applications and across enterprises. It is thus
      important to encapsulate database technology, i.e. to become independent of
      particular vendors of database systems and database paradigms. The base for
      this is a database system called ‘neutral repository’ providing its own
      services for manipulating and defining data. We describe the fundamentals of
      the neutral repository.},

    abstract = {The relevance of business processes as a major asset of an enterprise is more
      and more accepted: Business processes prescribe the way in which the resources
      of an enterprise are used, i.e., they describe how an enterprise will achieve
      its business goals. Organizations typically prescribe how business processes
      have to be performed, and they seek information technology that supports these
      processes. We describe a system that supports the two fundamental aspects of
      business process management, namely the modeling of processes and their
      execution. The meta-model of our system deals with models of business processes
      as weighted, colored, directed graphs of activities; execution is performed by
      navigation through the graphs according to a well-defined set of rules. The
      architecture consists of a distributed system with a client/server structure,
      and stores its data in an object-oriented database system.},
