Out of the workflow representations that are excellent to model business processes this paper examines the possibilities of the p-graph-based workflow modeling for administrative activities. Taking the special requirements of document management into account it gives a possible solution for document processing, the more reality like modeling of activities and resources. This paper introduces special descriptors for the various document types, activities and resources. Thus making the p-graph based workflow modeling more applicable for the modeling of administrative processes. Beyond the static examinations the extension of the p-graph-based model enables the analysis of dynamic behavior and the analysis of process executions.I.
Workflow is the most widespread modeling technique application in the field of business and office information systems. In the previous paper introduced Pgraph-based workflow modeling extended by the introduction of resource management is a systematic, fast method of optimal workflow model generation based on network synthesis with correct mathematical background. In this paper a further extension, a fuzzy extension of this Pgraph based workflow model is introduced. The goal of the new extension is to achieve a better modeling of real processes, and a better management of real life, ambiguous, non-exactly definable situations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
