WORKFLOW SIMULATION WITH ENVIRONMENT SIMULATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17893295 titled 'WORKFLOW SIMULATION WITH ENVIRONMENT SIMULATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for simulating future values of an input attribute passed from an external system to a process, based on a workflow representation of the process.

  • Identifying an external system that passes an input attribute to a process based on a workflow representation of the process
  • Building a simulator of the external system using attributes identified from the workflow representation
  • Simulating future values of the input attribute to be passed to the process by the external system based on the simulator and a previous simulation run of the process
  • Executing a new simulation of the process based on the simulated future values of the input attribute

---

      1. Potential Applications
  • Process optimization
  • Predictive maintenance
  • Resource allocation
      1. Problems Solved
  • Uncertainty in input values from external systems
  • Inefficient process performance
  • Lack of real-time data for decision-making
      1. Benefits
  • Improved accuracy in predicting input values
  • Enhanced process efficiency
  • Better decision-making based on simulated data


Original Abstract Submitted

An example operation may include one or more of identifying an external system that passes an input attribute to a process based on a workflow representation of the process, building a simulator of the external system based on attributes of the external system identified from the workflow representation, simulating future values of the input attribute to be passed to the process by the external system based on the simulator of the external system and a previous simulation run of the process performed via a workflow software application, and executing a new simulation of the process via the workflow software application based on the simulated future values of the input attribute.
