Improvement of Quality for Business Process Modeling Driven by Guidelines

摘要

The improvement of quality in business process models should be objective by applying measures. However, an evaluation of measurement results is not a simple task. It also requires the identification of relevant threshold values and indicators, which make it possible to distinguish between different levels of quality for BP models. In this context, a prototype named BPMoQualAssess (Business Process Model Quality Assess) is described. This prototype is including useful metrics defining the syntactic aspect of BP models also their threshold values. The obtained results are guidelines containing recommendations that aim at improving an input model by modifying it in order to obtain a higher level of quality.
