Moving Across Paradigms between the Process Design and Enactment Phase in Enterprise Information Systems

摘要

While the business process management literature often assumes a single approach (e.g. procedural or event-driven) over the process lifecycle, a transition between approaches at different phases in the process lifecycle may significantly reduce the impact of intrinsic trade-offs between process characteristics. This position paper explores several business process strategies by analyzing the approaches at different phases in the process lifecycle as well as the various transitions.
