“…Two further papers ( [58,14]) refer to the so-called artefact-centric approach to business process modelling. Sprovieri and Vogler [58] propose an algorithm to support the run-time planning of partly structured parts of a business process modelled in the CMMN (Case Management Model Notation) modelling language. The run-time planning is used to find an appropriate sequence of tasks.…”

“…The second most popular usage of a meta-model in our primary studies was the extension of the meta-model itself with a new concept (16 papers). [24] extends it with quality metrics; [49,18] with a notion of context; [9] with the notion of change and how change relates to business process elements; [6,47,7] with the notion of knowledge and knowedge-related concepts; [38] introduces the relation between business processes and daily practices; [62] extends a business process meta-model with the notion of value; [51,35] with the notion of resource; [35] introduces also a data dimension concerning artefacts and data objects; [4] with the notion of time; [58,32] extends it with the notion of goal, and [32] enriches it also with the notion of performance; finally, [59] extends it with RBAC related concepts (e.g., roles) and also RBAC related workflow patterns. Examples of extension of the meta-model are even more present if we consider also the two additional papers that incorporate workflow patterns in the meta-model and the two papers that extend business process meta-models with the ability to connect to domain ontologies.…”

Business process modelling languages typically enable the representation of business process models by employing (graphical) symbols. These symbols can vary depending upon the verbosity of the language, the modeling paradigm, the focus of the language, and so on. To make explicit the different constructs and rules employed by a specific language as well as bridge the gap across different languages, meta-models have been proposed in literature. These meta-models are a crucial source of knowledge on what state-of-the-art literature considers relevant to describe business processes. Moreover, the rapid growth of techniques and tools that aim at supporting all dimensions of business processes and not only its control flow perspective, as for instance data and organisational aspects, makes even more important to have a clear idea, already at the conceptual level, of the key process constructs. The goal of this work is to provide the first extensive systematic literature review (SLR) of business process metamodels. This SLR aims at answering research questions concerning: (i) the kind of meta-models proposed in literature; (ii) the recurring constructs they contain; (iii) their purposes; and (iv) their evaluations. The SRL was performed manually considering papers automatically retrieved from reference paper repositories as well as proceedings of the main conferences in the Business Process Management research area. Thirty-six papers were selected and evaluated against four research questions. The results indicate the existence of a reasonable body of work conducted in this specific area, but not a full maturity. In particular, while traditional paradigms towards business process modelling, and aspects related to the business process control flow seem to be well present, novel paradigms and aspects related to the organisational, data and goal-oriented aspects of business processes seem to be still under-investigated.
