Measures of Quality in Business Process Modelling

Assessing the Quality of Business Process Modelling

The conceptual modelling of business processes is becoming popular. The number of techniques and tools is growing fast. At the same time, an appropriate framework for understanding the quality of these modelling techniques is lacking. In this paper we report upon the development of a framework for understanding the quality of business process modelling techniques, called the QME framework. The ...

Business Process Measures

The paper proposes a new methodology for defining business process measures and their computation. The approach is based on metamodeling according to MOF. Especially, a metamodel providing precise definitions of typical process measures for UML activity diagram-like notation is proposed, including precise definitions how measures should be aggregated for composite process elements.

Sequence Constraints in Business Modelling and Business Process Modelling

Accessible Business Process Modelling

This article concerns with the accessibility of Business process modelling tools (BPMo tools) and business process modelling languages (BPMo languages). Therefore the reader will be introduced to business process management and the authors' motivation behind this inquiry. Afterwards, the paper will reflect problems when applying inaccessible BPMo tools. To illustrate these problems the authors ...

Modelling Business Process Performance

We present a business process performance evaluation approach based on a hierarchy of interacting analytical performance models from semanticoriented key performance indicator model through to the resource allocation optimisation model. Discussion of the human-centric process performance evaluation supported by the state-of-the-art presentation provides the motivation for our research work. Pre...
