Towards a Framework for Semantic Business Process Compliance Management

چکیده
Processes count to the most important assets of companies. Ensuring the compliance of processes to legal regulations, governance guidelines, and strategic business requirements is a sine qua non condition to controlling business behavior. Implementing business process compliance requires means for modeling and enforcing compliance measures. In this work, we motivate the need for automation in compliance management and introduce the role of policies. We then distinguish eight requirements for a compliance management framework. We also discuss different ways of conducting compliance checking. Finally, we propose a policy-based framework for business process compliance management. We eventually proceed to a discussion of the soundness and practicability of our approach, followed by an investigation of the main challenges ahead of our approach to policy-based semantic business process compliance management.
