Abstract: Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) is
a standard for business process modeling, within
organization or outside of its boundaries. BPMN analyzes a
business process as a set of interrelated activities, focusing
primarily on the functional perspective of the process. In
contrast to the aforesaid, BPMN pays very little attention to
the data/information flow, hence neglecting the
informational perspective of the process while modeling. In
this light, the paper proposes an approach for formal
modeling and specification of information requirements
used and generated in the cross-organizational business
processes. UML View Profile is introduced to specify
information requirements as views over the common
reference ontology. BPMN 2.0 extension is performed in
order to enable connecting the defined views and the
corresponding process activities. Eventually, the proposed
information requirements specification enables generation
and automation of the message instance transformation at
implementation level. The paper discusses benefits of the
presented approach and practical advantages supporting
the cross-organizational interoperability provisioning. |
