Conceptual Knowledge for business process modelling: A literature review
Keywords:
business process, process modelling, conceptual knowledge, ontological resourceAbstract
Process modeling requires conceptual knowledge to understand and describe reality, and make decisions about which concepts and details should be captured and then represented. In this sense, a method allows to systematically recover and explore knowledge resources in the domain of processes and business architecture is proposed. Its purpose is to acquire knowledge about different aspects must be taken into account during process modeling. As a result, applying the method, 1132 references and knowledge resources about business process and enterprise architecture domains were recovered and just 43 of them were studied. The study allowed identifying relevant knowledge should be taken account during business process modeling aware enterprise architecture domain. The conceptual knowledge was grouped according triple view model dimensions: element dimension, constraint dimension, and intentionality dimension.
