The article substantiates the opportunity of increasing business process efficiency due to the solutions in the industry of robotization. These solutions are described as the alternative for the classic automatization (transfer of business task to specialized software). Technical abilities and feature of this technology are described. This technology allows to automate standard user activities performed in the Graphical User Interface. This issue describes prerequisites to the development of this technology such as the needs of rest and breaks, mistakes caused by tiredness and lack of concentration, low productivity and so on. Technical aspects of this type of products like architecture and requirements to software and hardware are also described in the article. Special attention is paid to the existing solution in the industry, three biggest vendors (Automation Anywhere, UiPath, BluePrism) are described with their products. The article describes main parts of these platforms, main requirements and scopes of application. In the conclusion of the article author briefly describes future perspectives of RPA technology.

Descriptive Survey

This study adopted a descriptive survey design to assess the extent of systems performance processes of Caraga State University in Butuan City, Mindanao, Philippines with the aim of gauging the extent of systems performance processes as rated by 164 respondents consisting of 38 Administrators, 71 Faculty Members and 55 Non-academic Staff. Results show that the school’s extent of systems performance processes was moderately achieved. The different perception of respondents on the extent of systems performance processes shows incongruence of perceptions among administrators, faculty and staff that leads to the gap in understanding the degree of university performance with regards to the financial aspects, customer satisfaction, internal business process efficiency and learning and innovation. The school needs to improve its processes especially its processes on customer satisfaction, internal business process efficiency and learning and innovation to improve its financial performance. Keywords - Systems Performance Processes, Customer Satisfaction, Internal Business Process Efficiency, Learning and Innovation.

General Goals

The general goals of anaerobic sludge stabilisation are degradation of organic substances, reduction of solids, decrease of pathogenic bacterias, improvement of dewatering capabilities and production of biogas. The anaerobic degradation process can be divided in several steps with different optimum operational conditions. This gives the possibility to design treatment plants as a two-stage process, optimizing the process conditions in each step and thereby leading to an overall increase in process efficiency. Research results in lab scale and pilot scale have shown that a two-stage digestion process with a high loaded first thermophilic (50-55°C) stage and a second stage under mesophilic (35-37°C) conditions with sufficient retention time will lead to the best results. After giving a short summary of the development of the two-stage thermophilic/mesophilic digestion process the paper will present full scale experiences with this system in Germany.

Business Object

In the past decades, a number of methodologies have been proposed to innovate and improve business processes that play an important role in enhancing the operational efficiency of an organisation in order to attain business competitiveness. Traditional business process modelling (BPM) approaches are process-centric and focus on the workflow, ignoring the data modelling aspects that are essential for today’s data-centric landscape of modern businesses. Hence, a majority of BPM initiatives have failed in several organisations due to the lack of data-driven insights into their business performance. On the other hand, the information systems of today focus more on dataflows using object-oriented modelling (OOM) approaches. Even standard OOM approaches, such as unified modelling language (UML) methods, exhibit inherent weaknesses due to their lack of formalized innovation with business objects and the dynamic control-flows of complex business processes. In addition to these issues, both BPM and OOM approaches have been augmented with an array of complex software tools and techniques which have confused businesses. There is a lack of a common generalized framework that integrates the well-formalised control-flow based BPM approach and the dataflow based OOM approach that is suitable for today’s enterprise systems in order to support organisations to achieve successful business process improvements. This paper takes a modest step to fill this gap. We propose a framework using a structured six-step business process modelling (BPM) guideline combined with a business object-oriented methodology (BOOM) in a unique and practical way that could be adopted for improving an organisation’s process efficiency and business performance in contemporary enterprise systems. Our proposed business object-oriented process modelling (BOOPM) framework is applied to a business case study in order to demonstrate the practical implementation and process efficiency improvements that can be achieved in enterprise systems using such a structured and integrated approach.
