RoleFrames

Role Frame Notation

Role Frames provide the instructions
required to perform a action.
At run-time, these instructions will be executed
by an actor assigned the role
named in the step.

Since the instructions are written in Hum, they can be understood equally well by humans, robots, and sim-bots. When we run the actual business, the instructions are executed by humans and/or robots. When we simulate the operation of the business, the instructions are performed by sim-bots. The same system can be used to operate the business in the real world or in a virtual world. In fact, we may want to test our processes in the virtual world before running them in the real-world.
