Workflow simulation based on cloud platform for office automation system

This research focuses on improving business process worked under workflow simulation. In the business process, there are several properties to be considered such as person, cost, time. The current workflow simulation cannot combine these properties to simulate the situation for business decision making. In this paper, the improving business workflow simulation is proposed by adding the business properties to the workflow simulation. Then, our simulation is able to simulate his/her work and monitor/collect status data for analysis. Both Apache Oozie and Apache Hadoop are used in this work as fundamental framework. Oozie is a workflow engine job scheduler system which is performed by the Apache Hadoop. Apache Hadoop is big data framework that provides distributed processing and storage. As a result, our workflow simulation can increase the efficiency of workflow management and scalable for solving the big business workflow process.
