BPM - Science topic

Generally, it is known that the business process management (BPM) market is expected to grow significantly in the coming years. Factors such as increasing automation and digitalization of business processes, growing adoption of cloud-based BPM solutions, and the rising need for process optimization drive market growth. According to various research firms, the global BPM market was valued at USD 10.13 billion in 2020 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.9% from 2021 to 2028.

Hello,

In my practice, I've notice the usage of standard tools for process description enhances discussion and knowledge sharing more easily than other approaches.

A few explanations could be the acceptance of the authority of an approved standard, the lower barrier of entrance with free tools and training, the availability of a certification path for professionals.

Mind you, BPMN alone is not enough to describe the business practice: decision modeling with DMN and CMMN, system analysis with COBIT, data models and API using UML, performance indicators, and many others, are a few of the concepts I use in my 'knowledge toolkit'.

Hola, te propongo dos publicaciones que te pueden ayudar a responder la pregunta.

El primero los puedes encontrar en este enlace: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/322967861_Propositions_on_the_interaction_of_organizational_culture_with_other_factors_in_the_context_of_BPM_adoption. Esta relacionado con la cultura organizacional para el exito en la adopcion de BPM.

El segundo es: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/308649722_When_Cognitive_Biases_Lead_to_Business_Process_Management_Issues. En este se describen con las brechas de conocimiento puede afectar los proyectos BPM.

Espero que te sean utiles.

Dear Madison Cs , I suggest you put the prepared PVA film in a dessicator in which there is some gluteraldehyde solution and let it to stay in there for a day or two so it is sufficiently crosslinked by GA vapor. I have seen numerous articles that have crosslinked PVA using this strategy. Below you can find an article reporting this approach for crosslinking nanofibrous PVA.

Besides, I think the following paper might helpful as well.

Best,

Dear Ali Noroozian ,

Process mining is an analysis tool while BI-dashboards are for monitoring and reporting. These are different use cases. A process mining analysis can result in a new KPI that then should be monitored, but it can also lead to a process change (see Possible Outcomes).

I found this article here in research gate:

it's very useful.

Where is the "crossover"?

You should consider the correlation of measrements between phases of the same patient.

Have you thought about a resonable distributionmodelfor the heart rates? I would think that a Gamma model would possibly be more appropriate than a normal model.

You might think if it makes sense just to analyze the integral of the heart rates as a measure for the total blood low.

There are surely many more things to think about. I strongly suggest meeting with a local statistician (possible via web-conference if you cannot meet personally) and discuss your project.

There are some universities which have developed programs in BPM, however, there are no degree programs as of this writing in my university.

There are several reasons, from my point of view, the wrong decision in these things causes this: The first is to determine whether the previous process needs improvement or simply restructuring. Take your time to think. The second is whether this process will be negative or positive in a simple way. If it is positive, it will return its value to the customer and the institution. This is required. Always make sure that the process is positive as much as possible. Third, and this is the most important thing: “Focus on what you need and not what you want.” Do not apply BPM to all the organization’s operations simultaneously, just do this for operations that consume time, effort and money. The time that you will lose in unnecessary operations will benefit from it if you decide to invest in it. Important processes only if you feel that the process does not make an effective difference in the organization, then this means that there is a process that is more important than it, in short, only focus on the processes that will make the organization spend less and save time and money. There is a word in which he does bill gates say “The first rule of any technology used in a business is that automation applied to an efficient operation will magnify the efficiency.

The second is that automation applied to an inefficient operation will magnify the inefficiency.”

and this is a deep meaning, delve into it and you will review many things and always remember. Think before you decide to ask a lot of questions to test the process and try to accomplish it with the least effort possible. This will return its values ​​to the organization and improve your productivity.

Dear Fernando, your investigations are very interesting. Also noticed that if you BLAST the insertion "CCTCGGCGGGCACGT" = "PRRAR motif" but restrict the sequence only to PATENTS, almost of the results obtained with a 100% match are related to MODIFIED POLYNUCLEOTIDES FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ONCOLOGY-RELATED PROTEINS AND PEPTIDES and METHODS FOR ENHANCING IMMUNE CHECKPOINT BLOCKADE THERAPY BY MODULATING THE MICROBIOME.

The results you can find here: https://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi. / https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nucleotide/LY707785.1?report=genbank&log$=nucltop&blast_rank=1&RID=A3NSYKB9014 / https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nucleotide/MA673485.1?report=genbank&log$=nucltop&blast_rank=6&RID=A3NSYKB9014

The accuracy of the numerical results are mainly restricted to accuracy of the models, although sometimes the numerical stablilization might due to the detalied numerical methods. GPU might be treated as one possible way to decrease the CPU times in numerical simulations. Further, for a detaield numerical simulation problem, BC might be very important.

Dear Onur,

I am also trying to solve the waveguide propagation problem using x,y, and z co-ordinates using FDBPM. Could you please share your matlab code which might serve as a starting point for me.

my email is vishwatoshmishra34@gmail.com

Thanks in advance.

Hi. You can use Lumerical software. Recent versions support ports which you could use for determining the desired output mode. You can also export the modes from input and output monitors and compare them in Matlab with overlap integral calculation.

If we believe that organizations are not homogenous monoliths but rather quite diverse, then standardization would be more of an art than a science...

Hi,

Did you think that you are able to reach management position people easily to answer your survey questions? How do you randomly select them?

There are two types of sampling method. Probability sampling and non probability sampling. Please read research method for business studies to choose a correct sampling bcoz you can reach managers position people easily.

One more suggestion, you may conduct interviews with them.

Hi

Make your conductor small enough that it must not be outside of defined port. Further

check boundry settings in CsT . Make them all to none.

It may work for you.

If you want more flexibility in your ability to combine modalities, I would suggest extracting your values from the voxels of interest and treating them like any other variable in traditional statistical packages.

If you provide more information about exactly what sort of combined data analysis you're trying to do, we can answer more specifically.

Dear Andre, ISO standards, as long as I know, provide certification for LCA through ISO 14040.

thank you very much Dr.Elhaj for answering . my question about business performance .

I would strongly suggest you either use 250 Hz or implement some kind of interpolation to produce a signal with a higher sampling rate, else the jitter caused by insufficient sampling will inflate the RR variability and inflated entropy. Although the RR interval is long the PPG signal has harmonics way above the fundamental.

Best wishes.

Thanks a lot for your answer Johannes. This sounds like an interested topic for research. It would be great if you could post here the results of your further explorations on the subject as I'd be interested in following this.

Best of luck!

Adrian.

Thank you Montag for your valuable comments. Your time and effort really appreciated. 

You can use ACSM metabolic equations to calculate a predicted VO2max from any speed and grade on the treadmill.  The only problem is usually submaximal testing assumes a steady state heart rate during the exercise so pick a stage where the heart rate seemed to steady state.   It would probably be somewhere in the 3rd stage of the Bruce test if this is a healthy person.  The client should be walking at this stage.  If an athlete you could use the running equation which would be the speed and grade at the 4th stage. See the ACSM guidelines for the procedure to use these equations.  Hope this helps

Hi Yopie,

Behringer has a device on which you can tap a button to the beat of the song or .wav file.  And many Pro-tools plug-ins have a "tap tempo" function which then calculates bpm for you.  In the simplest sense, 60 bpm is 1 beat per second.  So, if you are tapping your finger 50 times a minute to your .wav file, the bpm = 50.  This assumes you are using quarter notes when tapping however.  If you tap your finger to your wav file and you noticed you tapped 100 times in a minute, this could mean that you were tapping eighth notes and really, it was 50 bpm and not 100 bpm, since bpm, in the classic sense, is always based on quarter notes. If you are are dealing in different time signatures (e.g. 7/4, 5/4, 3/4, 11/4) you always find what the quarter note pulse is and find out how many times you tap your finger in a minute - and that is your bpm.  Be aware of what a quarter note is - and this should solve it for you. Or, buy a metronome and see what the metronome setting is when it seems to be 'in sync' with your .wav file. What is your .wav file?  A song, sound of ocean waves, something other than music? Heartbeat?  Also, you could have something weird like 90.5 bpm.  As well, if you listen to songs that were not recorded with a metronome, the bpm changes from time to time throughout the whole song. Early Beatles = no metronome (flowing excitement; the beat make sense as the song grows, e.g., "It Won't Be Long"). Sting = perfect metronome (e.g. "Fields of Gold"). Stravinski, Beethoven, Brahms, Mozart... suggested tempos, and rit. (slow downs) and accel. (speed ups)... gas pedal moving up and down. Are you dealing with a perfect bpm?  Only you have the .wav file you are talking about ;]  120 bpm is another very common tempo.  The odd tempos 117, 105, 99 ... have a certain magic to them as well. 

Attached is a tool I made for exploring this sort of thing...

Another avenue you might pursue is the heart rate response of the transplanted heart, which has lost both parasympathetic and sympathetic innervation. As already intimated, the resting heart rate is dominated more by a parasympathetic (vagal) brake than sympathetic output. A transplanted heart generally has a resting rate +/- 20 bpm higher than normal. And as you have noted the initial heart rate response in exercise (unless being pursued by a bear?!) is probably due to reduced vagal tone. 

There are internal mechanisms within the heart associated with changes in rate (in either direction) Rapid atrial filling of the denervated heart is associated with an increase in rate, possibly via stretch stimulation of conducting tissue, and rapid decrease in atrial filling is associated with a decrease in heart rate. Someone is bound to mention the Bezold Jarisch reflex (forgive the spelling if wrong) if I don't, which is a (paradoxical?) slowing of the heart following sudden emptying but this may be a local cholinergic reflex associated with ischaemia.

Another area of interest would be heart rate changes associated with the rapid onset of high spinal anaesthesia, which takes out the traffic from the sypathetic chain, but leaves the vagal input intact. One would expect this to result in a bradycardia, which can occur and is quite common particularly in the elderly, but in pregnant patients the commonest immediate response is a tachycardia, perhaps due to rapid reduction in venous return.

a fascinating and time-consuming question. good luck!

Chris

PS don't try the bear experiment!

Dear Emiliano,

I am not quite sure what is it that you want to know. BPV usually is conducted to see weather the set of processes meets the requirements. So there should be specific requirements before the design of the business processes within the organization, and then validation. On the other side, business process benchmarking (BPB), many times seen as a tool of TQM, can be very useful for verification process. Here are some articles that can help (http://www.orau.gov/pbm/pbmhandbook/articles.pdf). Hope you find it useful. 

Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory in Hanover is good. Maybe this report will help:

Dear Mathias,

As you have indicated, Data has been anointed as the Oil of the new millennium. Modern strategists have elevated Data to the status of 4th factor of production after land, labor and capital. Given the volume, velocity and variety of data, knowledge extraction from new-age data has a complexity, which one would not have associated with data processing a decade back.

Before mapping data to business and planning BPM, one needs to organize data along a few vectors. The vectors are:

1. Location-aware data

2. Person-aware data   &

3. Context-aware data

Then for each of these streams, one has to look at what are the key factors and sub-factors that drive data collection, processing and storage. Some of the factors are:

1. Cost [Storage Cost, OPEX Cost, TCO, resource cost etc]

2. Technology [Are you going to use cloud for data storage]

3. Speed of processing [Data throughput Management]

4. Value adds from additionally processed data [like Visuality of data]

Mapping these vectors together would be useful in understanding the complete nuances of modern data and its involved processing.

sosical media is one way of networked learning. See the attached article:

BPM with cloud is better known as Cloud computing business process management. It is the use of (BPM) tools that are delivered as software services (SaaS) over a network. Cloud BPM business logic is deployed on an application server and the business data resides in cloud storage. According to Gartner, by 2016 20% of all the "shadow business processes" will be supported by BPM cloud platforms. The benefits of using cloud BPM services may as well be the benefits of using any cloud service as such. The SaaS delivery model removes the need and cost of maintaining specialized technical skill sets in-house. Use of cloud computing reduces distractions from an enterprise's main focus. It offers controlled IT budgeting and enables geographical mobility.

Here some related questions: On which level of detail to you measure standardization and how? How do you distinguish between mandatory process variants, e.g. due to legal requirements, and optional variants? How can a process standardization index look like?

Another question to add to that context would be how organizations measure the effectiveness of their compliance management? How do you measure the compliance of a business process with a standard?

The survival of the next generation enterprise is based on its ability to deal with an ever increasing complexification of its environment, its ability to innovate, and its structural flexibility. These three competencies - if I may call them so - are interactive and cannot be taken in isolation since they affect each other. In other words, I think it is an increasingly complex task.

But I strongly believe that one of the things an enterprise can do as a first step is build flexibility in its organisational structure. There is a wide recognition that organisational structure can inhibit innovation or the innovation potential of an organisation. In addition, innovation capabilities are hard to develop and sustain, so the modern enterprises may have to engage in collaborations to achieve that. Therefore, it may become inevitable for an enterprise to have geographically distributed organisational units that use ICT to collaborate, innovate, and achieve collective action trough a network structure that operates way beyond the traditional hierarchy.

Another important point to consider is to ensure that resources are developed and combined in a unique way that makes it very difficult for competing enterprises to replicate (further details can be found in the strategy literature, notably the Resource Based View). Here, the idea is that the survivability of an enterprise depends on its ability to outplay its competitors.

One last note: the modern enterprise should not downplay the importance of knowledge and its management, acquisition, transfer, and the ability to transform tacit knowledge into explicit knowledge...Building a knowledge capital, retaining it, developing it further and over time can ensure that an enterprise survives comfortably in its environment.

The biggest challenge is to find the 'God's Particle'! To find and commercialize a molecule which can contribute to the prevention / cure of a common disease. The challenge is to economize / expedite the research and marketing activities.

Depends on if you are interested in coherent or incoherent effects, and to which level. So be simple. Set a simple model of your setup and test where the effects you are interested in get negligible.

Sorry if too plain. It is a bit the engineering way (I'm an engineeer!), but not always perfect spherical hens are at hand.

Dear Ngoc Chan Nguyen thanks for your suggestion but the problem has been resolved. regards

Business Processes are basically collection of activities cutting across various departments, producing a valuable output for the customers (e.g Sales Process, Procurement Process). Workflow is used to automate these repetitive activities and hence business processes. So workflow will bring automation and efficiency to the business process.
