Abstract :
In recent years, diverse and dynamic characteristics of cloud computing on devices such as smart phones or tables have been shown to be supported by the cyberworlds modeling methodology of the Incrementally Modular Abstraction Hierarchy (IMAH), and we have developed a novel data processing called the Cellular Data System (CDS), using the powerful mathematical background of IMAH, to model the dynamically changing cyberworlds. In this contribution, we define a Conditional Branch Formula to realize general business flow in CDS and implement it. Thereby, the benefits of Formula Expression, such as the integration of equivalent business or the separation of inequivalent business according to requirements, can be enjoyed in business flow management. We apply CDS to develop the core logic of an approval system as a case of business flow management, from draft to approval, and show its flexibility to changes in the flow corresponding to individual conditions or organizational integration, without being restricted by the original flow design. Approval systems are used in most organizations, but are sometimes costly due to their complexity.
