Enhancing Visualizations of Business Processes

摘要

In today's business world, there exist multitudinous tools to model processes. For an automatic layout algorithm for those processes, it is important to take into account criteria like process flow and the semantic of the modeling notation. Most of the existing tools use standard layout approaches that often produce unsatisfying results since the calculated drawings are too dense and/or too large. This makes it difficult for users to understand the underlying process model.
