Digital Publishing consists of different job treatment
stages involved in the correct set up of each job to be
printed, but this process has been seriously hampered by a
number of difficulties including the management of faults
and errors of incoming jobs.
This work describes workflow modeling using Workflownets and
Generalized Stochastic Petri Nets (GSPN) for the Digital
Publishing business process and how the dependability
attributes are measured in a quantitative form. In our novel
approach, these are measured from the workflow model itself,
improving the analysis tools necessary to achieve a good
workflow process definition.
Applying these measure concepts to the Digital Publishing
pre-press process provides a workflow management based on
its trustworthiness. We also propose a methodology for
measuring dependability from a workflow process definition.
The main contribution of this work is a methodology to
obtain values of dependability attributes in a quantitative
form from the workflow model instead from a combinatorial
model adapting some methodologies and strategies for
combinatorial model construction to the creation of the
workflow process definition.
The book is addressed to professionals in Computer Science
and Computer Engineering, as well as, persons related to the
Digital Publishing Industry.
