Re: [epf-dev] Process Orchestration

[Peter Haumer <phaumer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello.
There is another excellent free product
that extends EPF Composer with the ability to instantiate a WBS (MSP) as
well as manage document artifacts.

It has been funded by the Swiss government
and is used for projects in the public sector:

Thanks and best regards,

Hi Nelson, 

We have a SaaS based project management and collaboration
tool called PoP Project (www.mypopproject.com)
that can be linked with a website published from EPF composer.
You can use the EPF published process to create a task list and Gantt chart,
add teams, share documents, and have a multi-threaded conversation at the
task level. 

I have given links to the EPF OpenUP and EPF Scrum applications
below. Feel free to try them. Both are configured differently to demonstrate
how PoP Project could be embedded within EPF (e.g. OpenUP) or vice versa
(e.g. Scrum).

Link to EPF OpenUP application: http://www.paradigmpop.com/u/apps/epf-openup/
Link to EPF Scrum application: http://www.mypopproject.com/o/v/publish/read.php?id=11

At this time there is no import possible from EPF, and
the linking needs to be done manually (we plan to publish a plugin to make
it easier, and contribute it to EPF). In that sense it does not orchestrate
EPF as you might expect. However I will appreciate your feedback on
whether this is still useful, how to improve it, etc. 

Thanks,

Hi Bjorn and Gerhard,

Thanks for information about the ProjectKoach and I will test it. I will
post my own opinion about that tool if I could after my tests as soon as
possible.

I have make some searches in google and i have found the Wilos Project
(http://www.wilos.ups-tlse.fr/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=48&Itemid=60).
Does anybody have used the Wilos for his/her process orchestration?

I don't know if this discution should be in list scope. If not at all,
please let me know.

Thanks for the pointer Gerhard. 
I'm the developer of ProjectKoach and I can elaborate
on it a bit more.

ProjectKoach may not fully support process orchestration
in the sense that I think you are looking for. The earlier pre-Eclipse
version (which is the one Gerhard is referring to), before 2008, did have
an import feature that scanned the process structure and auto-instantiated
a wbs based on it. Oddly enough, we had to drop that feature when we migrated
ProjectKoach into Eclipse ... (because of version conflicts between the
ProjectKoach, the EPF libraries and Eclipse platform). 
It is in our plans to resurrect the full OpenUP import
feature sometime during the fall. When it is available you can point to
your configuration, 'import', and instantiate its structure from the right-click
context menu of the release plan editor.

In the mean time, ProjectKoach still supports the main
part of the process enactment use case and you can easily create a free-hand
process model that you can then use to build your plan. It is just that
it will not be connected to your OpenUP process instance. 
This feature is available in the licensed ProjectKoach
Premium feature, which is available in a 30-day free trial. 
see www.projectkoach.com
for more information.

Hope this helps,
With Best Regards,
Bjorn

However, I did not work with it up to now...

Hi all,

Does anybody know if there is any tool that use EPF to orchestrate the
defined process? Something like to guide people to know what the next step
has to be done?
