A Study of Different Visualizations for Visualizing Differences in Process Models

چکیده
Finding di erences between two processes can be a complex, time consuming, and expensive task. Our work is based on the di erence graph approach which calculates the di erences between two process models and if available their instances. In this paper we evaluate di erent possibilities for visualizing these di erences. For this purpose we have selected some common visual properties such as color, shape, and size and evaluated these di erent visualizations with 31 participants through an online survey. Our results show that color coding and symbols were the preferred methods of the participants for depicting di erences in a graph visualization.

Visualizing Large Business Process Models: Challenges, Techniques, Applications
Large process models may comprise hundreds or thousands of process elements, like activities, gateways, and data objects. Presenting such process models to users and enabling them to interact with these models constitute crucial tasks of any process-aware information systems (PAISs). Existing PAISs, however, neither provide adequate techniques for visualizing and abstracting process models nor ...

متن کاملPerspective Oriented Business Process Visualization
Visualizing business process models in various ways supports modelers in creation and users in understanding. Therefore we present a flexible and extensible meta model based approach to enhance business process models by multiple visualizations. These visualizations are geared to the so called perspectives of a business process model and emphasize different aspects of a business process model.

Monitoring complex systems includes scanning, aggregating and processing data from various sources. The design of graphical interfaces for monitoring tasks involves a fine-grained exploration of the importance and expected frequency of events that an operator needs to be informed about. The Human Efficiency Evaluator is a tool for the prediction of human behavior. We extended it to predict the ...

Since performing field experiments for determining the optimum amount of water for soil desalinization is costly and time consuming, use of computer models in leaching studies has received more attention. However, the accuracy of the results of these models should be evaluated by comparison with the results of the field experiments. In this study SWAP and LEACHC models were used for the simulat...
