Process Mapping Key items to note when process mapping: http://www.bpmenterprise.com/content/c060710a.asp - Follow Best practices and get the right people (SME) for each job. - Get the bigger picture of the entire system instead of just discrete or departmental views. Understanding interactions. But don’t (lose) losing sight of the forest for the trees. - Understanding the current processes in depth. - Prioritize key things that need to be done‚ elements in critical path‚ customer delivery

Define the following: 1. Process is an instance of a program running in a computer. It is close in meaning to task‚ a term used in some operating systems. A process is also more than the program code‚ which is known as the text section. 2. Process Control Block is the representation of each process in the operating system. It is also called a task control block. This process control block contains many pieces of information associated with a specific process. 3. Thread is a basic unit of CPU

The importance of Completing the Design Process An important point to keep in mind is that the level of structural integrity and data integrity is in direct proportion to how thoroughly the design process is followed. The less time spent on the design process‚ the greater the risk of encountering problems with the database. While thoroughly following the database design process may not eliminate all of the problems you may

2.7.2.3 Unified Modeling Language (UML) “UML is defined using a meta-modeling approach. Meta-model is use to analyse‚ construct and develop the frames‚ rules‚ constraints‚ models and theories. While‚ a model is defined through the instantiation of model elements defined in a meta-model‚ the main purpose of a meta-model is to explain and define the relationships among the different components of the applied model itself using processing language. This meta-modeling approach can be applied in another

This report offers a basic theory of process mapping in different factors‚ which has an influence on the service operation management. A basic definition is mentioned to recognize its utilization in the business operation with explain the tools that used to map a process. Various advantages of process mapping are discussed as well. The way of mapping a process in three levels is included to specify the activities in the operation. With a well created process mapping‚ there are more implementations
