Abstract

Due to distribution, complexity, heterogeneity and time consumption of nowadays processes, interaction of process elements has become a key issue to monitor. Process support environments are required that allow the process manager (typically a project manager) to continuously receive information from the enacting process (the subject process) in order to detect both problematic situations such as deviations with regard to interactions that are considered as valid and "improvable" situations where better use can be done of project resources. This position paper claims that to this problem, logic-based approaches represent a suitable solution. A formalism for defining interaction monitoring models and the interaction management system that enact them are briefly presented. The industrial relevance of this work is currently being demonstrated in the framework of the PIE ESPRIT IV 34840 LTR Project.
