A Distributed Business Process Collaboration Architecture Based on Entropy in Cloud Computing

Business process collaboration enable organizations to communication, interact and cooperate with each other to achieve specific business goals. Currently, the research work on business process mainly focus on the modelling and analysis for their organization structure or interactive relationship. This paper study business process collaboration from the view of software architecture, a distributed architecture called “agent end + stockholder end” is proposed, by analyzing the collaboration architecture finds, in the case of the participation organizations are given, determining the agents in collaboration and the participation organizations in every management region becomes the key for effective collaborating. For this reason, with the help of fuzzy cluster to determine the membership matrix and clustering centers firstly in this paper, then the best number of agent is determined through agent entropy, and thus the set of participation organizations in every management region are determined. Experiment results show that the method proposed in this paper is feasible and effective.
