Item type:Publication, Granularity Patterns for Programming Cyber-physical Systems with Business ProcessesBusiness process management (BPM) systems and corresponding notations have shown their applicability and flexibility in modeling, automating, and mining business processes in enterprise applications and service-oriented architectures for many decades. Becoming increasingly open and accessible via software-based interfaces, cyber-physical systems (CPS)--systems interacting with the physical world via sensors and actuators--benefit from BPM-based automation too, as they are inherently process-driven and software-intensive. We present four patterns discussing the choice of appropriate levels of detail (granularities) and corresponding decision forces regarding what to model in executable business processes and what to implement in traditional programming languages in CPS software. Two patterns give advice on when to model sensing in CPS at a more fine-grained or on a more coarse-grained level in business processes. Similarly, two patterns discuss these granularity choices for actuation in CPS. These four patterns guide the modeling and implementation of executable business processes that can be used for combining and automating sensing and actuation of CPS.Type:conference paperJournal:European Conference on Pattern Languages of Programs, People, and Practices (EuroPLoP)
