About the Book

Currently, we see a variety of tools and techniques for specifying and implementing business processes. The problem is that there are still gaps and tensions between the different disciplines needed to improve business process execution and improvement in enterprises. Business process modeling, workflow execution and application programming are examples of disciplines that are hosted by different communities and that emerged separately from each other. In particular, concepts have not yet been fully elaborated at the system analysis level. Therefore, practitioners are faced again and again with similar questions in concrete business process projects: Which decomposition mechanism to use? How to find the correct granularity for business process activities? Which implementing technology is the optimal one in a given situation? This work offers an approach to the systematization of the field. The methodology used is explicitly not a comparative analysis of existing tools and techniques – although a review of existing tools is an essential basis for the considerations in the book. Rather, the book tries to provide a landscape of rationales and concepts in business processes with a discussion of alternatives.

Table of Contents:
Business Process Excellence.- Research Opportunities in Business Process Technology.- Semantics of Business Process Models.- Decomposing Business Processes.- Structured Business Process Specification.- Workflow Technology and Human-Computer Interaction.- Service-Oriented Architecture.- Conclusion.

Review :
From the reviews: “Draheim’s book serves to help unify these fields by clarifying the differences and the similarities in the concepts, relating the technologies to computer science principles, and envisioning a unified future for the use of business process technology. … The book has been carefully written and effectively organized. It is technically precise, without getting too deep in the weeds to distract readers from the concepts or examples being presented. Many helpful diagrams are included, and 363 references are given.” (M. G. Murphy, ACM Computing Reviews, August, 2011)
