Abstract
An open resource-based integrated platform system is built for the execution of business processes, assuming that the business process model is the fundamental factor for the next generation of integrated business information systems. First of all a resource meta-model is constructed, which represents the basic information unit. Then the concept of domain ontology is used to organize and manage resources obtained from distributed and heterogeneous sources. Based on the resource, Bite is used to compose RESTful services in order to control business processes in an orderly way. Therefore, the way of services to call resources within the limits of traditional web service architectures is being transferred into a resource flow. A software architecture is proposed and tested, based on an exemplary business process scenario. The result indicates a new research direction for the application of business process models based on the platform ORIPS.
