“…PMS prefer quantitative, numeric key figures (Key Performance Indicators, KPIs) (Deloitte, 2007;Zigon, 2011) to measure processes, because "if it can't be measured, it can't be evaluated" (Polovina & Hill, 2009). Numbers are supposed to be more objective than other qualitative, subjective aspects of performance (Power, 1997).…”

Performance measurement systems (PMS) are necessary to ensure adequate information supply to management, but an information gap exists between process analysis and execution. PMS predominantly rely on countable, objective measures, but are also designed to deliver additional viewpoints to foster necessary explanations to measurements. Still, there is no definition of how well these approaches work in delivering sufficient explanatory information. The introduced concept of visibility of performance explains how the explication of process performance information leads to additional interpretation possibilities in performance measurement to deliver embedded and rich knowledge. It is tested on a business case, in which additional subjective information could be explicated through the application of a suitable Performance Assessment Model. The result of the explication of this knowledge is an enhanced comprehension of performance that bridges the information gap between operative and strategic level.

A straightforward mapping from Conceptual Graphs (CGs) to Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) is presented. It is shown that the benefits of FCA can be added to those of CGs, in, for example, formally reasoning about a system design. In the mapping, a formal attribute in FCA is formed by combining a CG source concept with its relation. The corresponding formal object in FCA is the corresponding CG target concept. It is described how a CG, represented by triples of the form source-concept, relation, target-concept, can be transformed into a set of binary relations of the form (target-concept, source-concept relation) creating a formal context in FCA. An algorithm for the transformation is presented and for which there is a software implementation. The approach is compared to that of Wille. An example is given of a simple University Transaction Model (TM) scenario that demonstrates how FCA can be applied to CGs, combining the power of each in an integrated and intuitive way.

A Transactions Pattern for Structuring Unstructured Corporate Information in Enterprise Applications

Abstract: It is known that 80-85% of all corporate information remains unstructured. As such, many enterprises rely on information systems that cause them to risk transactions that are based on lack of information (errors of omission) or misleading information (errors of commission
