IBM's developerWorks site has recently published two items I wrote about design and implementation of management capabilities with Muse, and I thought they were worth mentioning here. The developerWorks site has a lot of good Muse-related content, but these two articles in particular are very important. Many people have asked for a more in-depth study of how manageable resources should be designed with Muse, with more detail than what is currently in our programming model docs. These articles represent my attempt to provide an authoritative answer to those requests. This is the best I can offer in terms of letting you inside my head to see what I was thinking when I wrote the code. You may come away thinking I did some things wrong, or that I'm crazy for making certain decisions, but at least you'll have an in-depth understanding of the crazy. :) Many of the more detailed sections are based on feedback from people like Vinh, who has studied the code a lot in order to figure out how he should implement some very advanced use cases. If you're still getting started with Muse, or you want to see how internal IBM teams are developing Muse-based resources, please take the time to follow these links: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/autonomic/library/ac-bpmusedesign/index.html http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/edu/ac-dw-ac-bpmusedesign-i.html Thanks, Dan Dan Jemiolo IBM Corporation Research Triangle Park, NC +++ I'm an engineer.
