Cooperations—an abstraction concept suitable for business process re-engineering

Abstract

This paper discusses an object oriented approach to business process modeling. The basic idea of this approach is to view business processes as being objects at their own, that incorporate the rules and conditions for a particular business of a given enterprise or organisation. A specific abstraction concept called cooperation is introduced allowing for a natural and comprehensive design of concurrent operations or interdependent interactions that are performed by different agents in the course of a specific business process. Two examples will demonstrate the approach.
