"Pragmatic Quality of Business Process Models in Governance, Risk and Control" 

 

Business process models are increasingly used for capturing business operations of companies. These models play an important role in the requirements elicitation phase of to-be-created information systems and in as-is analysis of business efficiency. The quality of process models has been studied from different angles in recent research, mostly with a focus on syntax and semantics. In this keynote, I will summarize the essential findings of this stream of research and identify gaps on the side of pragmatic quality. In particular, I will focus on the application of process models in governance, risk and control scenarios showing what we do know from prior research and what would be important to find out in the future.
