Abstract:
An enterprise system/process modeling (ESPO) system and method that permits efficient representation of enterprise systems/processes (ESP) and calculation of global solutions to models associated with these ESPs is disclosed. The system/method incorporates an enterprise system/process modeling definition subsystem (ESPD) in which an interconnected processes, resources, constraints, and objectives may be defined to describe a global enterprise system/process model (ESPO). This ESPO describes the enterprise to be modeled and the various boundaries within which enterprise modeling is to take place. This ESPO is translated and transformed into an intermediate indexed format by an enterprise global modeling subsystem (EGMS) for use in generating the coefficients of an equation matrix. The equation matrix is solved for a solution state space conforming to desired enterprise objectives and the results are presented for review by an enterprise model reporting subsystem (FSPR).
