An anticipative effects-driven approach to analyze interoperability in collaborative processes: application to a crisis management process
This paper aims at presenting the foundation of an Anticipative Effects Driven Approach to validate a collaborative process taking into account interoperability constraints and rules. The objective of this approach is to allow managers in charge of this collaborative process to detect and characterize the possible effects due to a lack of organizational interoperability between partners involved into the collaborative process. This approach is based on several concepts, model and reasoning mechanisms presented and illustrated in this paper. It is applied here to a case of a crisis management process involving several partners. This research is issued from a previous approach coming from a French research project dealing with the interoperability of systems in crisis situation: ISYCRI (Interoperability of SYstems in situation of CRIsis, ANR-06-CSOSG).
