Generation of Business Process Model Views

Instead of having a single process model and generating several views from the same model, organizations tend to create separate models for the same business process. As a result, the multiple models may lack consistency or effort is required to keep the multiple models consistent. Moreover, the ability to effectively analyse and communicate a business process model depends on the ability to create customized views that isolate and focus on specific concerns. In this paper, we describe the core concepts and a tool to generate consistent business process views from a single process model according to six communication questions: what, where, when, why, who and how.
