Abstract

Detailed knowledge about the structure and functionality of a business process within an enterprise is of utter importance for a thorough understanding of organizational sequences. This is a crucial requirement in business process management (BPM) and business process re-engineering (BPR), which cover the entire process lifecycle, from modeling and design, to execution, monitoring, and optimization. Throughout this lifecycle, process models are required to represent an enterprise’s processes, so that they can be documented, communicated, verified, simulated, analyzed, automated, evaluated, or improved. This chapter provides an overview of business process modeling and workflow design, discusses their commonalities and differences, explains how different process perspectives aremodeled, and gives an overview of several business process modeling related research topics.
