Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to method and process management, and provide a data processing system, method, and computer program product for dynamic binding of a capability pattern to multiple processes in a method architecture. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a data processing system configured for dynamic binding of process patterns can include a method management tool. The method management tool can include program code enabled both to compose a capability pattern comprised of at least one activity defined by a plurality of nested and descriptors for source method elements, and to bind an extension activity to the capability pattern in a process model without replicating the activity of the capability pattern in the process pattern.
A data processing system configured for binding a capability pattern to multiple processes, the system comprising a method management tool comprising program code enabled both to compose a capability pattern of at least one activity defined by references to a plurality of source method elements, and to bind an extension to the capability pattern in a process model without replicating the activities of the capability pattern in the process model.
A computer program product comprising a computer usable medium having computer usable program code for binding a capability pattern to multiple process patterns in a model defined by a method architecture, the computer program product including:
