Abstract

This paper presents an efficient version management method for BPM systems based on business process change patterns and the version stamp method. In managing business processes in a dynamic business environment, a proper process version management method for handling multiple coexisting versions of a business process is required. However, the traditional delta method for business process version management could not cope with the structural changes of a business process flexibly. The version management method proposed in this paper enables BPM systems to deal with dynamic situations more flexibly. Also, it contributes to increasing activity reusability by using the concept of activity pool.
