Dears!

I have few questions related to the features of EPF. Please let me know,
because I want to know the answers of these before using it.

1 - The platforms, it currently supports?
2 Does EPF support to work for distributed development teams, who work
at different location, to work on a signle project?
3 Does EPF provide an interface in web page form?
4 Does the EPF support for the automation of process, here my meaning of
automation is whether it suggests you what will be the next step /
alternative steps in the process automatically?

Thanks in advanced.

Regards! N.

Ali,

1- EPF Composer currently runs on Windows and Linux. Published Web sites can
be browsed on Windows Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. Supported
version control systems are IBM Rational ClearCase (including CCRC), CVS and
Subversion. See EPF Composer Download page for specific information.

2- Distributed development is supported with a version control system.
Please refer to this guideline for more information:
Using EPF Composer with a Version Control System

3- Not for authoring methods, but the resulting method can be published in a
Web site, to be deployed stand-alone or to a JEE server.

4- Process enactment is not supported directly by EPF Composer. The closest
I can think of is the Wilos tool, which allows process orchestration (see
Eclipse Plug-in Central for more information). Someone else may tell us of
any other enactment tools.

I hope it answers your questions.
Regards,

Ricardo Balduino

IRIS Process Live offers flexible enactment of processes, including those
created in EPF Composer or RMC, in real projects. As one of its features,
it automatically suggests succeeding tasks and trigger configurable emails
to performers notifying them of the tasks that are now ready to start, based
on the process definition.

By flexible enactment I mean that project teams can instantiate project work
items on the fly as needed during the unfolding project. Here is blog post
that goes into more details on this concept.

Thanks
