Die Modellierung und Analyse von betrieblichen Stoffstromsystemen gewinnt in der Praxis zunehmend an Bedeutung. Die Methode der Stoffstromnetze erweisen sich hierbei als mächtiges Instrumentarium für die Durchführung verschiedenster Analysen. Durch die saubere methodische Trennung von Mengen-...

Dans le contexte de la gestion des cycles de vie des systèmes (SDLC), on observe un fossé entre, d'une part, les représentations utilisées pour modéliser les méthodologies sous forme de processus, par exemple en utilisant business process model and notation (BPMN), et d'autre part les...

In this report, we discuss the use of Petri Net language theory for business process modeling. Essentially, the focus is on the opportunities of the modeling technique for analysis and verification. Semantic compatibility, as opposed to syntactic compatibility, is concerned with the...

Today, a wide variety of techniques have been proposed to model the process aspects of business processes. The problem, however, is that many of these are focused on providing a clear graphical representation of the models and give almost no support for complex verification procedures....

Abstract: Sowohl der globale Wettbewerb als auch die sich verschärfende Gesetzeslage, setzen Unternehmen unter zunehmenden ökonomischen und regulatorischen Druck. Einerseits erfordert die Globalisierung die Effizienzsteigerung durch automatisierte Geschäftsprozesse, anderseits führten...

The description and visualization of processes and underlying requirements are a core task in IT projects today. The translation of information between different forms of representation is used to include these efficiently in the different steps of a project, e.g., to describe the as-is and...

There are estimates that up to 30% of hospital costs are due to inefficiently coordinated hospital processes. As a result many hospitals have tried to model and to reengineer their business processes. These efforts have very often been abandoned, because the normally constructed total models of...
