Business Process Modelling with Continuous Validation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we demonstrate the prototype of a modelling tool that applies graph-based rules for identifying problems in business process models. The advantages of our approach are twofold. Firstly, it is not necessary to compute the complete state space of the model in order to find errors. Secondly, our technique can even be applied to incomplete business process models. Thus, the modeller can be supported by direct feedback during the model construction. This feedback does not only report problems, but it also identifies their reasons and makes suggestions for improvements.

Evaluating the Effect of Feedback on Syntactic Errors for Novice Modellers
In this paper, we present the results of a controlled human experiment where students in a business process modelling course had to model a business process from a case study as part of their coursework. One group could take advantage of the continuous validation feature that is implemented in the bflow modelling tool, i.e. they were provided with alerts about modelling errors. A control group ...
متن کاملSoftware Engineering Inspired Cost Estimation for Process Modelling
Up to this point business process management projects in general and business process modelling projects in particular could not rely on a practical and scientifically validated method to estimate cost and effort. Especially the model development phase is not covered by a cost estimation method or model. Further phases of business process modelling starting with implementation are covered by in...

متن کاملUsing Enactable Models to Enhance Use Case Descriptions
Many tools developed for process modelling either model client business processes or the software development process itself. In both cases, benefits are to be found by using the model to highlight real process problems either of clients or developers. However, the modelling of client business processes allows a further opportunity for gain, where the intention is to build a system to provide s...
متن کاملData Flow and Validation in Workflow Modelling
A complete workflow specification requires careful integration of many different process characteristics. Decisions must be made as to the definitions of individual activities, their scope, the order of execution that maintains the overall business process logic, the rules governing the discipline of work list scheduling to performers, identification of time constraints and more. The goal of th...
