First International Workshop on Theory and Applications of Process Visualization (TAPro Viz 2012)

摘要

The representation of business process models has been a continuing research topic for many years now. However, many process model representations have not developed beyond minimally interactive 2D icon-based representations of directed graphs and networks, with little or no annotation for information overlays. With the rise of desktop computers and commodity mobile devices capable of supporting rich interactive 3D environments, we believe that much of the research performed in computer-human interaction, virtual reality, games, and interactive entertainment has much potential in areas of BPM; to engage, provide insight, and to promote collaboration among analysts and stakeholders alike. This initial visualization workshop sought to initiate the development of a high-quality international forum to present and discuss research in this field. Via this workshop, we intend to create a community to unify and nurture the development of process visualization topics as a continuing research area.
