Conceptual-physical bridging – From BPMN models to physical implementations on kettle

Developing and implementing data-oriented workflows for data migration processes are complex tasks involving several problems related to the integration of data coming from different schemas. Usually, they involve very specific requirements - every process is almost unique. Having a way to abstract their representation will help us to better understand and validate them with business users, which is a crucial step for requirements validation. In this demo we present an approach that provides a way to enrich incrementally conceptual models in order to support an automatic way for producing their correspondent physical implementation. In this demo we will show how B2K (Business to Kettle) system works transforming BPMN 2.0 conceptual models into Kettle data-integration executable processes, approaching the most relevant aspects related to model design and enrichment, model to system transformation, and system execution.

Automatic generation of ETL physical systems from BPMN conceptual models

ETL conceptual modeling is a very important activity in any data warehousing system project implementation. Owning a high-level system representation allowing for a clear identification of the main parts of a data warehousing system is clearly a great advantage, especially in early stages of design and development. However, the effort to model conceptually an ETL system rarely is properly rewarded. Translating ETL conceptual models directly into something that saves work and time on the concrete implementation of the system process it would be, in fact, a great help. In this paper we present and discuss a hybrid approach to this problem, combining the simplicity of interpretation and power of expression of BPMN on ETL systems conceptualization with the use of ETL patterns to produce automatically an ETL skeleton, a first prototype system, which has the ability to be executed in a commercial ETL tool like Kettle.

Modelos teóricos das relações coparentais: revisão crítica

A investigação empírica e teórica sobre a coparentalidade têm crescido ao longo da última década. A aliança parental tem sido conceptualizada como um dos elementos essenciais para a harmonia sistémica da família, bem como responsável pelas trajectórias (des)adaptadas das crianças. O presente artigo teórico, num primeiro momento, define e delimita o construto de coparentalidade, num segundo momento, apresenta três modelos conceptuais da aliança coparental mais referenciados na literatura científica e, no final, discute as vantagens e limitações conceptuais dos quadros teóricos descritos. Este artigo tem como finalidade contribuir para a clarificação deste construto da Psicologia da Família e informar sobre a sua potencialidade na prática psicológica.
