“…A part of the SBVR standard is SBVR Structured English [16]. There are methods of tranforming SBVR business rules into UML activity diagrams [17] (which are similar to BPMN models) or BPMN [9,18]. Some papers consider the extended versions of SBVR, like SBPVR (Semantics of Business Process Vocabulary and Process Rules) [19] or sSBVRMM (simplified SBVR metamodel) [20].…”

“…A process model may be obtained from natural language description [2][3][4][5][6][7]. In some cases, a structured textual description, such as Semantics of Business Vocabulary and Business Rules (SBVR), can be used to obtain the process model [8,9]. However, in comparison with natural language description, over 60% of experienced BPMN modelers find creating process models easier if a specification is facilitated with rule-mapped text [10].…”

Business process models help to visualize processes of an organization. In enterprises, these processes are often specified in internal regulations, resolutions or other law acts of a company. Such descriptions, like task lists, have mostly form of enumerated lists or spreadsheets. In this paper, we present a mapping of process model elements into a spreadsheet representation. As a process model can be represented in various notations, this can be seen as an interoperability solution for process knowledge interchange between different representations. In presenting the details of the solution, we focus on the popular BPMN representation, which is a de facto standard for business process modeling. We present a method how to generate a BPMN process model from a spreadsheet-based representation. In contrast to the other existing approaches concerning spreadsheets, our method does not require explicit specification of gateways in the spreadsheet, but it takes advantage of nested list form. Such a spreadsheet can be created either manually or merged from the task list specifications provided by users.

“…However, some papers in the literature can be found about the transformation between models in BPs. Kulza and Honkisz in [40] transform a Semantic of Business Vocabulary and Rules (SBVR) [41] into a BPMN model. The work is oriented to the transformation of business rules rather than to the dependencies between data.…”

Business Process Configuration According to Data Dependency Specification

et al. 2018

Configuration techniques have been used in several fields, such as the design of business process models. Sometimes these models depend on the data dependencies, being easier to describe what has to be done instead of how. Configuration models enable to use a declarative representation of business processes, deciding the most appropriate work-flow in each case. Unfortunately, data dependencies among the activities and how they can affect the correct execution of the process, has been overlooked in the declarative specifications and configurable systems found in the literature. In order to find the best process configuration for optimizing the execution time of processes according to data dependencies, we propose the use of Constraint Programming paradigm with the aim of obtaining an adaptable imperative model in function of the data dependencies of the activities described declarative.

Configuration techniques have been used in several fields, such as the design of business process models. Sometimes these models depend on the data dependencies, being easier to describe "what" has to be done instead of "how". Configuration models enable to use a declarative representation of business processes, deciding the most appropriate work-flow in each case. Unfortunately, data dependencies among the activities and how they can affect the correct execution of the process, has been overlooked in the declarative specifications and configurable systems found in the literature. In order to find the best process configuration for optimizing the execution time of processes according to data dependencies, we propose the use of Constraint Programming paradigm with the aim of obtaining an adaptable imperative model in function of the data dependencies of the activities described declarative.
