An aspect-oriented approach to business process modeling
Claudia Ileana Cappelli, Julio César Sampaio do Prado Leite, Thaı́s Batista, Lyrene Fernandes da Silva · 2009
Traditional methods to business process modeling build the model in a unified way, which gives rise to complex models, where different concerns are scattered and tangled. In this paper we propose the use of an aspect-oriented approach to modularize business process modeling. We propose a meta Aspect Oriented Process Modeling Language (AOPML) that is independent of any specific business process language. In order to show the applicability of the approach we instantiate it using the Business Process Model Notation (BPMN) in a case study that takes advantage of AOPML.
