Using Activiti to automate processes at CERN
João Silva, Software Engineer, CERN

Context: Electronic Document Handling
- Over 60 official procedures
- Safety, procurement, finance, HR, etc.
- Over 360k documents per year
- Over 750k electronic signatures
- Developed in-house (1992)
Workflow Core concepts
- Human-centric BPM
- Electronic Signature Collector
- Signature Process (~BPMN’s User Task)
- Role-based
- Non-blocking
- Integration with receiver systems via Transfer Processes
- Streamline processes
- Don’t ask for signature if person has already signed
- Don’t ask for signature if someone with sufficient rights has already signed before

Backwards Compatibility Policy
Cas : V5 Issues
V6 Architecture
Roadmap
Bulk Insert/Delete
•Lower traffic between engine and database
• Work already good under way
Bulk insert PR
Execution bulk delete in v6
• Includes reordering for correct order
• But needs performance tests to validate
• Avoid delete queries if no data exists
Eg execution related tasks, jobs, variables, ..
BPMN Support
• Ad-hoc subprocess
• Event subprocess
More event types
Non-interrupting
• Java-based gateway
• Message intermediate throw event + better pool support
• Event-based gateway parallel semantics
• Escalation
Dynamic process definitions/instances
• Support for dynamic features
Tasks, processes related to process instance
Re-route a process instance in a custom way
Store the result as a new process definition
• Algorithms are most likely applicable to process definition migration logic
Variables
• New variable scopes
Global / Local (v5 semantics)
Scoped (within subprocess)
• Variable mapper
Multi instance finished
Call activity finished
• System variables
• Transient variables
Runtime Swapping
• Swap out behaviours, listeners, expressions at runtime
• With specific conditions
Allow to patch in flight process instance by overriding behaviour
