Business Process Management: A Rigorous Approach
Martyn Ould has re-invented process modelling for the real world. Throw away pre-conceived ideas of wall-to-wall reengineering charts, workflow diagrams and arcane application logic. The author shows us that processes are participatory, concurrent and mobile. Their underlying formalism is interactive role-based computation. With the advent of Business Process Management Systems (BPMS) this important book is essential practice for those modelling processes using languages such as BPML and BPEL. -- Howard Smith Co-chair of the Business Process Management Initiative (BPMI.org) and Chief Technology Officer, Computer Sciences Corporation European Group--This text refers to an alternatePaperbackedition.
