A declarative approach for change impact analysis of business processes
Résumé
The business process models provide a means to control and visualize the enterprise processes. Different processes in an enterprise inter-operate to achieve a common strategic and operational objective. These processes continuously evolve to meet the changing business requirements. In this respect, the process models should be able to reflect a cost-effective solution for the decided changes in a process and its impact on other executing processes. Such dynamic adaptability requires not only an exhaustive comprehension of business process activities but also the understanding of the various change dimensions. In this work, we propose a formal description of change feasibility, change incorporation, and traceability of the change impact propagation among multiple processes. A rule-based approach is proposed for change incorporation during the development and instantiation of business process models. The rule-based declarative approach is destined to estimate the change feasibility in dynamic business process models. We attempt to analyze the multiple dependency levels to better control the change impact propagation. The work aims to help a well-controlled and successful evolution of business processes.
