Making electronic business systems, products of information technologies or solving real time tasks more and more IT specialists their designing work connect to UML language. The usage of this language provides opportunities to arrange documentation more simply, allows to communicate different position employees more easily, guarantee IT systems compatibility with business needs and requirements. One of the diagrams types used is activity diagram, which could be used to describe business processes, firms or its unit, compose official, activity or users instructions, show systems behaviour. Any investigative, designed or management activity at some cases is connected to modelling. Commonly designing systems, where parallel events could take place or, if necessary, to give an opportunity gradually, taking in account the reality, show events or state proceeding with the help of Petri nets. It is both graphical and mathematical design method. Designing activity diagrams of IT systems UML editors are used. To research and show events proceeding Petri nets are used. So the problem area is to compose a design system, which could transfer the elements of activity diagrams into Petri nets and model the functionality of the project. The major purpose of this study paper is to compose UML language activity diagrams modelling system, examine the functionality and design opportunities of system’s activity diagrams into Petri nets.

Viena iš problemų, su kuria susiduria informacinių sistemų kūrėjai, tai veiklos taisyklių atradimas. Tai procesas, kurio metu identifikuojamos veiklos taisyklės, įtakojančios kuriamą informacinę sistemą. Veiklos taisyklių atradimas gali trukti visą IS kūrimo laiką: daugelis jų atrandama specifikuojant vartotojų poreikius, taip pat projektuojant IS modelius. Derėtų nepamiršti, kad IS kūrimas – tai procesas, išsidėstęs laike, todėl tuo metu pati veikla, savaime aišku, nestovi vietoje ir gali generuoti naujas taisykles ar senų pakeitimus. Taigi taisyklės atrandamos viso proceso metu ir netgi po jo. Kurgi dėti, kaip dokumentuoti naujai atrastą taisyklę? Daugelis mokslininkų siūlo susikurti tam tikros formos blanką ir jame užrašyti veiklos taisyklės specifikaciją. Be abejo tai gali būti ir kompiuterinis failas. Šio darbo objektas veiklos taisyklėmis grindžiamas vartotojo reikalavimų kuriamai informacinei sistemai specifikavimas. Darbo tikslas yra pasiūlyti veiklos taisyklėmis grindžiamo vartotojo poreikių specifikavimo metodą ir CASE priemonę jam palengvinti. Iškelti uždaviniai yra tokie: • Apžvelgti veiklos taisyklių koncepciją; • Aptarti veiklos taisyklių struktūrizavimo metodus; • Apžvelgti veiklos taisyklių struktūrizavimo proceso eigą; • Realizuoti pasirinktą veiklos taisyklėmis grindžiamos vartotojo reikalavimų saugyklos modelį; • Pateikti išvadas ir pasiūlymus tolesniam sistemos vystymui. Laukiamas rezultatas veikianti vartotojo reikalavimų saugykla. / The success of requirements analysis often decides the quality of the finished information system (IS).

Sparti ekonominės erdvės kaita ir globalizacijos spaudimas verčia įmones atsisakyti veiklos principo „čia ir dabar“. Naudojami darbo metodai tampa neefektyvūs, todėl įmonės turi keistis. Egzistuoja daug įmonių valdymo metodų, kurių tikslas – veiklos efektyvumo gerinimas. Efektyvumo vertinimo metodai veiklą vertina įvairiais rodikliais: rodikliai, pavyzdžiui, finansinė analizė, rodiklių sistema, pavyzdžiui, subalansuotų rodiklių metodas, vertinimo metodikos, veiksmų seka, pavyzdžiui, šešių sigmų metodas. Tačiau efektyvumo vertinimo metodai dažniausiai neatitinka esamos situacijos. Įvedus naują rizikos ir laiko lygmenį procesus būtų galima ne tik palyginti, bet ir iš anksto numatyti galimus finansinių rodiklių pokyčius. Šį naują įvestą lygmenį galima įdiegti informacinėse sistemose, skirtose procesams vertinti pagal subalansuotų rodiklių metodą. Naujasis procesų efektyvumo vertinimo modelis gali kompleksiškai ir efektyviai įvertinti procesų efektyvumą. / Rapid economic change and globalization processes forces companies to refuse the attitude “now and here”. Enterprise performance methods are becoming inefficient, therefore enterprises have to change. Routine activities and processes efficiency estimation methods often do not present the real situation. Enterprise business processes are very different - some processes may be sufficient to assess the financial analysis, for other processes can be adapted balanced scorecard approach. However, there are some processes that are strictly regulated and are associated with various risk and time management. For that reason, usually used processes and enterprise performance assessment methods can not reveal the efficiency of enterprise processes, so it is seek for other, more effective performance management - assessment methods, which could help business leaders properly evaluate process efficiency. An analysis of performance management - assessment methods showed their strengths and weaknesses. It can be argued that business processes can be assessed by balanced scorecard approach. However, this approach’s four prospects are insufficient for business processes evaluation. In the process dimension it is lack of risk and time management. And other methods currently used in processes efficiency estimation do not give integrated performance index. For this reason process estimation is subjective. The experimental study showed that the introduction of new risk and time management into... [to full text]
