Abstract

Abstract Process modeling has a broad range of applications, varying from business and system engineering, via artifact design, up to natural process modeling utilized in natural sciences. Over the last decades, various sophisticated languages and frameworks have been developed to support process modeling. The current paper discusses an approach to process modeling, which is, in contrast to many existing solutions, intended for the integrated process and object modeling. Furthermore, it is designed to be a lightweight approach with only a few constructs, which, however, permit the representation of processes from various perspectives. The developed solution provides an abstract language-independent model (ontology), partial formalization in first-order logic as well as a Web Ontology Language (OWL) implementation.
