“…Consequently, the BP can quickly respond to the rapid and constantly changing business environment in which it operates, by the proper inclusion of the ever-changing context data that describes the surrounding business environment. The primary part of this study has been reported in [6]. And that is now made richer and accomplished by the successful inclusion of three software metrics for the measurement of the amount of changes needed to be done in the earlier BP.…”

The building of a re-configurable business process (BP) has gained importance in business organizations. It helps the organization to adapt to the agility in business goals. A proper context-driven re-configurable BP should be capable of integrating dynamic context information. However, this is absent in the existing studies. As a result, providing a suitable, expressive and re-configurable BP to the business organization stakeholders has become a challenging issue. The prevailing research works lack the proper consideration and suitable incorporation of the context-driven services to make a BP re-configurable. And then it can quickly respond and change its behavior to adapt to the rapid and unpredictable changing business environment. In addition, those methods hardly come up with any appropriate technique to use the set of specified goals to extract context-driven services. Those business goals are determined by the group of stakeholders of a business organization. This paper proposes a new method of re-configuring context-driven from a defined goal to sort out these vital challenges. Present context data is included in an existing BP to achieve a modified goal which immensely benefits the end-users. Thus, this approach is intrinsically highly user-centric, reusable, fast and inexpensive. To achieve this, an algorithm called Context-driven Re-configurable Business Process Achievement Algorithm (CDRBPA) is introduced and implemented. Based on Primary Context (PC), three software metrics, namely, Degree of re-usability (DRUPC), Degree of re-appropriation (DRAPC) and Degree of re-configurability (DRPC) have been proposed to measure the modifications done to the existing BP. In conclusion, various case studies with different complexities have been performed to show the strength of the proposed algorithm.
