Objectives
Reference models for business processes have been a successful means for designing, redesigning, tailoring, and implementing business processes. Still there is no common understanding of reference models for business processes:
- What is a reference model?
- What makes them different from a business process model?
- What should be covered by a reference model?
- What is their purpose and how should they be used?
- How should they be designed and presented?
The workshop should bring together people from different application areas, using different notations and formalisms, in order to present and discuss their point of view. The workshop should help
- to share experiences with the use of reference models,
- to better understand the purpose and the role of reference models,
- to identify the aspects that should be covered by reference models,
- to discuss notations and meta models for reference models, and, eventually,
- to come up with a technology to efficiently design and to use reference models.
Organisation
The workshop will be held as a satellite event of the International Conference on Business Process Modelling (BPM '05). You can register for the workshop on the official BPM 05 web site.
