SERIES: A Task Modelling Notation for Resource-driven Adaptation

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Enterprise Systems (ESs) can make use of tasks that depend on various types of resources such as robots and raw materials. The variability of resources can cause losses to enterprises. For example, the malfunctioning of robots at automated warehouses could delay product deliveries and cause financial losses. These losses can be avoided if resource-driven adaptation is supported. In order to support resource-driven adaptation in ESs, this paper presents a task modelling notation called SERIES, which is used for specifying the tasks of ESs at design time and the enterprise-specific task variants and property values at runtime. SERIES is complemented by a visual tool. We assessed the usability of SERIES using the cognitive dimensions framework. We also evaluated SERIES by developing resource-driven adaptation examples and measuring the performance overhead and source-code intrusiveness. The results showed that SERIES does not hinder performance and is non-intrusive.
