2BUSINESS PROCESSING ENGINEERING
Introduction
Business processing Engineering can be defined as the method in which various
organization analyze or study the present or current process of business and easily aim in
developing new methods which can be used for improving productivity, involved or operation
cost and efficiency for an organization (Scheer, 2012). It also aims on the fact that organization
can easily achieve their goals. It also focusses or address on the fact that organization can easily
achieve or look for overall kind of improvement.
In the coming pages of the report a case study has been chosen on e-school application
which relates to the use of business process engineering. After that full attention has been given
on intention and contents of the article. All the important factors like survey, case study,
observation, experiments and other kinds of methods associated with it. An attention has been
given on the various kinds of issues and problems which is highlighted by the author. A brief
comparison with the other paper on the topic of business processing engineering has been
provided. The paper chosen for this report is the requirement or need of e-school application
which offers services to various kinds of information society.
Survey
The paper mainly addresses a conceptual type of framework which is needed of
engineering methods for e-school application which generally offer various kinds service to
information society. The e-school application can be defined as the fusion of electronic business
and context of mobile business (Van Der Aalst, 2013). This model mainly consists of three
dynamic of web interface and SMS interface. Implementation of this kind of service mainly
requires accept various kinds of changes in the school business process which supports it.
This paper mainly addresses the need or requirement of engineering framework which
mainly aim in overcoming the feedback loop and process of business. The framework provided
in this paper mainly addresses on the fact of building an application which mainly surety of the
fact and looking into the fact of identification of various process of business processes changes
and various kinds of models related to it (Weske, 2012). The framework also focuses on the idea
of efficient deployment of various kinds of services and its future development on the business

processes. Various kinds of analysis are done by a business processing engineers so that
organization easily achieve long term goals
Case Study
Requirements engineering has developed a model which can be used as a software
engineering considering the fact of systematic way of earliest application of software
development. Components of various kinds of engineering model generally consist of
development of requirement and its management (Zur Muehlen and Recker, 2013). In this paper
the conceptual framework mainly addresses a design for coordinating the various kinds of
activities requirement of engineering and also ensures the kind of development required for
development of some specific application.
Efficient capturing the various kinds of business process which support development of
application which is considered to be critical for development of software requirements. The
following case study is chosen for fact that it has increased number in exchanging various kinds
of notification with respect to various kinds of information system. SMS and mail services are
considered to be main or ultimate method of notification assets which mainly provides support
for rich interface. The following paper mainly addresses issues of traditional school and aspects
of e-school.
Observation
Various kinds of educational system in summation of core activities of teaching and
learning focus which generally depends on various kinds of business procedures. The procedure
generally falls on scope of various processes of business. There are generally a large number of
issues which generally lacks the architecture of e-school which is according to technical
standard, lack of conditions, process of business. There are large number of gaps between small
and large schools.
Business process capture, analysis and development of model focus on initial boundaries
of school. In this phase the initial boundaries of the business process are checked and a basis idea
of the process is needed. For proper definition of the vison of the application and its need to be
done (Chung, Nixon and Mylopoulos, 2012). Various stakeholder’s requirements are gathered
and given to individual kinds of users so that it can easily provide high level of specification. In
the prototype phase, a proper kind of prototype phase is designed and implemented as per need

of the requirements. The prototype focus on gathering and verifying the needs of the user. Trial
work is considered to be important for both functionality of application as well as verification of
performance. The only method to have process changes is to accept the changes of the process
directly from the various actors. The various kinds of service and improved processes are used
and set into motion for usage.
Experiment
In the case study a very important factor is highlighted that how the teachers make
changes regarding the records of homework assignment. Every school have highlighted some of
the issue related to tracking of data and drawing attention when it is considered to be important
factor. This particular type of factor is considered to be bit time consuming (Röglinger,
Pöppelbuß and Becker, 2012). One risk which is associated with the various kinds of usability of
service is generally related to simplification of procedure. It will help in overcoming additional
features or work for the teachers. In case of dealing with service requirements a whole set of
future which mainly taken into consideration.
The key idea or logic behind the initiation of e-school system is to provide gradual
support for the school process and changes which is needed or required for successful integration
and adaptation. The process which is generally assumed to impact the need of set for a particular
application (Dumas et al... 2013). And any kind of improvisation in school business is considered
to be an extension of various processes of school and it should make use of traditional school
processes and it should also notify various kinds of services related to it (Harmon, 2015). An
important factor which is to be noticed is the introduction of business process which will not
decrease the amount or level of usability.
Other methods
The case study in the paper mainly addresses various kinds of notification services which
are generally based on notification services which are generally depended on school depended
exchange of information at any point of time by making use of various kinds of service related to
SMS messages. This particular type of service enables a fast and easy way of information
exchange between school, parents and students (Rosemann and vom Brocke, 2015). The content
in the notification is generally about assignment of students, absence of students, general

notification about various kinds of activities like meeting between parent and teachers. Broadcast
capabilities are generally making use of distributed dependent architecture.
Bidirectional communication provides a platform where parents can easily ask for some
particular information which they sometime look for like information about the children given or
provided by students. Data entry is generally achieved by making use of various secure kinds of
web interfaces (Jeston and Nelis, 2014). This particular services enables customizing various
kinds profile of customers and receiving information about their interest. Notification service
user include various kinds of teachers as a content of administrator, students and their parents.
All the registered employees of school are generally responsible for providing or entering
information related to school (Rebuge and Ferreira, 2012). The job role of the administrator of
the system generally depends on the model of business.
Findings
Two new methods have been found for E-school notification has been discussed in the
case study. In the service development model, it is concluded that notification service is very
simple and easy to use (Eastman, 2012). Only software development process is needed for
required for it. With the help of conceptual design of framework several stages of requirement
engineering were generally defined. Each and every stage of this model is generally defined as
goal and techniques of requirement elicitation (Reay, Ramshaw and Harvey, 2013). The ultimate
notion of notification service is the limitation of SMS and other kinds of Web services. The
service claims to provide more user friendly and extensive method of communication which is
limited to extensive medium of communication which is generally considered to be opposite of
inherent limitation of SMS. This particular service provides web interface for provider of content
and user for various kinds of services.
Problem or Issue
Various kinds of education system provide addition to core value of activities of teaching
and other kinds of learning. This procedure generally falls under the method or process of school
business process (Chang, 2016). An example of traditional process of business can be defined as
the roles and responsibility of students to perform all the task and doing all sort of home works.
There are large number of issue which are discussed in the following case study are

6BUSINESS PROCESSING ENGINEERING
 Lack or absence of general type of E-school system of architecture which
generally works according to the technical standard and current process of
business
 Absence of condition, rules and regulation which is generally used in e-learning
and e-teaching mode of teaching.
 Analysis of any kind of gap present which is generally present in big and large
kind of schools.
Apart from this parents are considered to be a part or mode of communities which focus
on the fact that that parent can easily get information related to their children.
Comparison
On comparing this article with the other article is it observed that the case study is
different but the idea about business process engineering is same. Business processing
engineering can be easily stated as the method by which organization can easily work and
develop some kinds of new methods which can be used for improving efficiency and various
kinds of cost which are generally involved in it (Laguna and Marklund, 2013). After comparison
it is analyzed that method of adaptation or implementation of business process engineering is
different in the case study but the notion or goal is same in both the research study. In one of the
case study the origin of BPR and key concepts, BPR as a radical change, BPR and TQM has
been discussed in this case study. While on the other case study an analysis has been done on the
framework which consist of framework like capability for capturing and checking the business
process and development of model (van Dongen, Dijkman and Mendling, 2013). A business
driver for the process of business is generally supported for development of application.
Conclusion
From the above discussion it can be concluded that this case study it can be easily
concluded that this report is all about Business Processing Engineering. In the beginning pages
of the report a proper definition of BPR (Business Processing Engineering) has been provided.
In the discussion of the report an idea has been provided regarding the conceptual kind of
framework which is needed in E-School applications. In the case study section an idea has been
provided regarding requirement engineering. Two of the important factors like SMS and email

services has been discussed in the report. In the observation part various kinds of various kinds
of education system and teaching has been discussed in details. In the experiment portion of the
report certain number of problems have been discussed like methods used by teachers for having
correction regarding the assignment. The ultimate idea behind the generation of e-school system
is give or provide regular support for various kinds of processes and changes which is needed for
proper addition or integration. In the other method section an idea has been provided regarding
bidirectional communication. Later on in the finding section two of the E-school notification that
is service development and SMS web interface has been discussed in the above pages.
