Patent ID: 8126762

Claim:
A method for stabilizing a Business Activity Monitoring and Management (BAM) system including dashboard portals that display to different business role players comprising supply chain members, comprising the computer-implemented steps of: by a Business Process execution system on a computation device, receiving inputs from the dashboard portals of the different supply chain members and modifying the received inputs for execution by a feedback loop within which is located a stabilizer, the stabilizer having stored therein: (1) a predictive model for predicting the outputs of the Business Process execution system, the model being an updatable model, (2) a set of filter policies, and (3) an information filter that executes the filter policies; by the Business Process execution system on the computation device, outputting of output events, which are fed back for modifying inputs to the Business Process execution system; depicting Business Process Metrics and producing alerts seen on the dashboards of different supply chain members; operating the stabilizer on the computation device to analyze monitored data; operating the information filter on the computation device, including allowing only some monitored data to pass through to elicit a business response, wherein Business Process execution inputs are only updated using monitored information when such an update results in potential improvement in Business Process performance.
