“…Collectively, IDEF0, IDEF3 and Petri net representations provide a 'rich picture' of enterprise requirements which can be analysed, developed and reused over time by members of project and systems engineering teams. Potentially, also, these specialist representations can be linked to other multiperspective representations of systems of resources as required by specialist system designers, implementers, managers, users and developers [22]. Hence, there is much indirect evidence of a general need for transformations between different modelling constructs and modelling systems.…”

The paper describes transformation rules that map between IDEFO and IDEF3 integration definitions and Petri net modelling constructs. Use of these rules has enabled the development of an enterprise modelling methodology. This methodology ensures that different yet consistent views of business processes and their underpinning resources can be developed by members of a systems engineering team. In particular, the methodology supports the organized capture of functional models, expressed in IDEFO notation, and links them to the subsequent development of behaviour models expressed in IDEF3 notation. Decomposition rules have also been developed that determine relationships between system elements so that they can be modelled at various levels of granularity. Resultant behaviour models can be translated into an equivalent Petri net form. One target application of the modelling rules and methods has been to model interactions between business partners that share common business processes.

“…The description method recommended here is similar to the use of IDEF0 model extensions as suggested by Ang and used in the domain of risk evaluation [22]. This study de ned activation rules as a relationship formula governing every distinctive input and output case related to function activation.…”
