Abstract :
While a software process is being executed, many errors and problems occur which require to reconsider previously executed process steps. In order to handle feedback in a process management system, several requirements need to be addressed: adaptability, human intervention, impact analysis, change propagation, restoration of the work context, and traceability. Feedback management in DYNAMITE meets these requirements. DYNAMITE is based on dynamic task nets and specifically supports feedback through feedback relations, task versions, and customized semantics of data flows. A methodology for feedback handling is also represented
