Abstract

To respond quickly to changing market requirements, businesses need to increase the level of agility in all phases of the business process engineering chain. Business process (BP) modeling is the first and most important phase in this chain. Designing a new and redesigning an existing process model is a highly complex, time consuming and error prone task. In this work, we contribute to BP modeling by i) analyzing the usage scenarios and identifying the types of queries which facilitate the design and increase quality of newly created BP models and ii) devising an approach to support querying in BP modeling.
