Abstract:
In this paper, we introduce a concept, which focuses on innovative commercial system implementations reflecting process-embedded events from the Internet of Things. The developed concepts are derived from experiences applying recent research advances to industry scenarios. The rationale behind the overall concept is twofold: while transparency is increased by event-based methodologies in the context of the Internet of Things, the agility of business processes is fostered by enhanced business process models, orchestration
support, execution control, and user assistance.
