Design and Implementation of the Routine Mechanism in CPMS
CPMS中例程处理机制的设计与实现

Process support system is a software system which can specify, execute and monitor business processes. It uses process model to describe the control structures of processes. In CPMS (CMM-based Process Management System), which is a CMM based process support system, because of the existence of umbrella processes in CMM, the control structures of the basic process model are not flexible and capable enough. We need to add new mechanisms to the process model to support umbrella processes- This article presents a mechanism supports the umbrella processes in CMM, which is named Routine Mechanism. The design of routine mechanism uses the idea of exception handling in programming language but makes some modifications according to the characteristics of umbrella processes. Finally, this article also describes the implementation of routine mechanism.
