E3value to BPMN model transformation

Abstract

Business value and coordination process perspectives need to be taken into consideration while modeling business collaborations. The need for these two models stems from the importance of separating the how from the what concerns. A business value model shows what is offered by whom to whom while a coordination process model shows how these offerings are fulfilled operationally. This case study addresses the model transformation between e3value and BPMN, commonly used for modeling business collaborations from value and coordination perspectives respectively. © 2011 IFIP International Federation for Information Processing.
