Abstract

Workflow Management Systems not only need to provide a mechanism to represent the organizational elements involved during the execution of workflow processes but they also must provide the mechanism for continuous improvements within these elements. But, in almost, all workflow management systems the role concept is determined once at the introduction of a workflow application and is not reevaluated to observe how successfully certain processes are performed by the authorized agents. This paper describes an approach which evaluates whether agents assigned to a process are working successfully and feed this information back for future agent assignments promising best business benefit for the enterprise. The approach is called Agent Performance Evaluation (APE) and is based on data mining technique combined with post processing technique.
