The business process literature has proposed a multitude of business process modeling approaches or paradigms, each in response to a different business process type with a unique set of requirements. Two polar paradigms, i.e. the imperative and the declarative paradigm, appear to define the extreme positions on the paradigm spectrum. While imperative approaches focus on explicitly defining how an organizational goal should be reached, the declarative approaches focus on the directives, policies and regulations restricting the potential ways to achieve the organizational goal. In between, a variety of hybrid-paradigms can be distinguished, e.g. the advanced and adaptive case management.This paper focuses on the less exposed declarative approach on process modeling. An outline of the declarative process modeling and the modeling approaches is presented, followed by an overview of the observed declarative process modeling principles and an evaluation of the declarative process modeling approaches.
