By definition, regulatory rules (in legal context called norms) intend to achieve specific behaviour from business processes, and might be relevant to the whole or part of a business process. They can impose conditions on different aspects of process models, e.g., control-flow, data and resources etc. Based on the rules sets, norms can be classified into various classes and sub-classes according to their effects. This paper presents an abstract framework consisting of a list of norms and a generic compliance checking approach on the idea of (possible) execution of processes. The proposed framework is independent of any existing formalism, and provides a conceptually rich and exhaustive ontology and semantics of norms needed for business process compliance checking. Apart from the other uses, the proposed framework can be used to compare different compliance management frameworks (CMFs).

“…Prominent efforts in this direction use Event Pattern Languages (EPLs) to capture relevant requirements and constraints.

“…Driven by this emergent business need, runtime compliance monitoring has recently been an active research topic (e.g., [38,40,64]); however despite the efforts, important aspects of compliance monitoring have been overlooked. For instance, the technology used to enable monitoring, the nature of the process execution environment, the type of events generated from these environments and their granularity have not been well discussed in literature.…”

Abstract-Today s dynamically changing business and compliance environment demand enterprises to continuously ensure their compliance with various laws, regulations and standards. Several business studies have concluded that compliance management is one of the main challenges companies face nowadays. Runtime compliance monitoring is of utmost importance for compliance assurance as during the prior design-time compliance checking phase, only a subset of the imposed compliance requirements can be statically checked due to the absence of required variable instantiation and contextual information. Furthermore, the fact that a BP model has been statically checked for compliance during design-time does not guarantee that the corresponding running BP instances are usually compliant due to human and machine errors. In this paper, we present a generic proactive runtime BP compliance monitoring framework, BPMaaS. The framework incorporates a wide range of expressive high-level graphical compliance patterns for the abstract specification of runtime constraints. Compliance monitoring is achieved using anti-patterns, a novel mechanism which is agnostic towards any underlying monitoring execution technology. As a proof-ofconcept, complex event processing (CEP) technology is adopted as one of the possible realizations of the monitoring engine of the framework. An integrated tool-suite has been developed as an instantiation artifact of BP-MaaS, and the validation of the approach is undertaken in several directions, which includes internal validity and case study conducts considering two real-life case studies from the banking domain.

“…However, these works mainly concern with introducing rich compliance patterns. In addition, works (Mulo, 2013) proposes a domain specific language (DSL) for specifying compliance rules and apply complex-event processing for compliance monitoring. However, these works are restricted to the control-flow perspective yet.…”
