Dissecting inter-organizational business process modeling: A linguistic and conceptual approach

Abstract

The main objective of this paper is to contribute to the understanding of the of Business Process Modelling field focusing on the definition of the Inter-Organizational Business Processes from both a high-level modelling perspective and a technological one. We used a conceptual maps' approach in order to clarify all the fundamental concepts that surround these two fields. We will present the two conceptual maps we have achieved through the help of a web-based tool for corpus linguistics and knowledge engineering named Corpógrafo and using the IHMC Cmaps Tools for the design of the Conceptual maps.
