Business Process Modelling for Academic Virtual Organizations

Abstract

The increasing mobility due to Bologna process forces the academic partners to increase the inter-operability of their administrative processes, by interacting through a collaborative networks and therefore acting as an academic virtual organization. To facilitate the communication and the comprehension of the administrative processes between the components of the CN, the Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) is proposed in this paper as a standard graphical model for administrative processes and transactions. The adaptability of this standard for academic processes and the difficulties of "translating" the actual administrative models (legal texts) in BPMN diagrams are analyzed.
