This website presents tools and services supporting the mangement of business processes. It includes services to capture and describe processes from workflow engines, converter to create ontology based process models and virutalisation frameworks. Moreover, preservation identifier was developed using a knowledge bases to identify alternative service and file format to be used wihtin processes. The Software Escrow framework helps to assess the quality of software development porject for depositing at Escrow Agents.
Part of this work has been co-funded by the EU by the TIMBSU project under the 7 FP. More information about the TIMBUS project can be found at: timbusproject.net

Process Migration Framework
The process migration framework (PMF) can be used for model-based migration of processes from a shared system to a new dedicated virtual machine. [more]
RWS Framework
The Resilient Web Service (RWS) Framework provides guidelines to support a Web Service developer developing resilient enhanced Web Services. [more]
Archi2OWL
This tool provides a converter from an Archi model to the process context model.
It comes in two flavours: Either as a plugin to Archi or as a standalone command-line tool. [more]
Preservation Identifier
The preservation identifier suggest alternatives tool and formats that can be used within a process.[more]
Provenance Extractor
It extracts workflow run provenance information, such as intermediate results, execution time and process flow from the Taverna provenance database into the context model. [more]
Software Escrow
The software escrow framework supports human reviewer of deposited software development projects by automatically evaluating the artifacts and reporting parts that need to be examined manually. [more]
