A pleasure to discover ! To me, a wonderful(ly engineered) library. Big thanks to Netstyle ! Iâm just getting my hands around, but it looks to me like a great general purpose BP tool (modeling + engine + xpdl import export). It would be very useful for IS in industrial contexts (*). And before all a superb starting point to model my simple personal routines as executable processes. On the practical aspects, just a problem loading because of WADynamicVariable, but it kinds of load on Pharo 6. Running tests, there are (naturally) some failures. I think most come from the removed links to Omnibase/History support and seaside (WADynamicVariable). Some stuffs that are missing: #isOmniBaseTransaction #markDirty A reference to TimeStamp fixed: #beginInHistory ⦠Need to fix WADynamicVariable with shouldnât be hard. The History link (persistence) is a bit more difficult as I donât know its importance in the engine. All Workflow object are managed object which (if I understand well) are persistent object. So maybe It need a (local) persistent alternative, a stub ? Anyway, I need to understand more and I will probably come back with some questions about the dependencies and how to fix them. Cheers and thanks again, enligthening code :) Cédrick * Interoperability of is a field I try carefully not to enter because I found not really fun (as most of the tool Iâve soon were java based ⦠and slow⦠and java world !) but if only I had similar tools in pharo that could bring the fun back :)

Hi again, this is my last question and the more general one of the day :-)
Iâm looking for way of representing and executing simple "business processes" in Pharo and a way of declaring domain ontologies/taxonomies.
I didnât find any lib around this subjects except some projects in other smalltalk dialects.
I just wander if somebody has done some work in these field. Iâm also interested in (KISS) design discussions around these topics, hence this email.
I donât want to do a full fledged business process middleware.
I would need : - a way to represent simple business processes (succession of activities with logic gates (and/or/xor) => I might be able to do that by myself). - a way to execute these processes (routines) in a semi-aotumatic manner => This looks more difficult to do to me. => my aim is to execute recurrent routines (my routines) with the help of a Pharo application
For such a system, I also need a way to categorize information context. Again, I donât think I need a full fledged ontology implementation like Description Logic (or whatever). I think Iâll be happy with information tagging according to a predefined taxonomy. Instead of flat tags, Iâd like them to implement some sort of multiple inheritance. For instance, I may need a tag #soccer that "inherit" #sport.
Any information regarding taxonomy tagging in Pharo ? (Or eventually ontology?).
TIA,
Cédrick
