“…Formal approach graph grammars for checking the consistency of UML class and sequence diagrams are proposed in [79]. In Rajabi and Lee [80]- [82], a change management framework to support runtime changes in business process modelling languages is proposed (where the business processes are modelled using UML diagrams). The new changes are the result of creating, deleting, or modifying business processes.…”

UML modelling language is widely adopted in software analysis and design. UML diagrams are divided into different perspectives on modelling a problem domain. Preserving the coevolution among these diagrams is very crucial so that they can be updated continuously to reflect software changes. Decades of research efforts have produced a wide spectrum of approaches in checking the coevolution among UML diagrams. These approaches can be classified into direct, transformational, formal semantics, or knowledge representation approaches. Formal methods such as Coloured Petri Nets (CPN) are widely used in detecting and handling the coevolution between artifacts. Although ample progress has been made, there still remains much work to be done in further improving the effectiveness and the accuracy of the state-of-the-art coevolution techniques in managing changes in UML diagrams. In this research, a survey about the approaches in maintaining the coevolution among UML diagrams is provided. This research proposed set of coevolution and change effect relations on UML diagrams and diagrams elements. Additionally, currently challenges and issues to detect and resolve the UML diagrams coevolution and inconsistencies are discussed.

“…The analysis showed that dynamic business processes are not understood and defined similar so other authors proposed dynamic model implementation solutions which we divided into two examined problems: changing business processes at runtime [1], [2], [4], [5], [10], [11] or executing business process with no predefined sequence of activities [7], [12]. In this section we provide realization for a different solution, which proposed by different authors.…”

Business processes in enterprise are changing due to changes in the environment of business systems. These changes need to be implemented with very low latency because it is necessary to maintain competitiveness. Usually it requires a lot of resources (finance, time and people to change the business process components: activities (their contents, executors and consistency) and conditions. It is desirable for the changes to be implemented at the business processes runtime so that they would ensure the dynamism of the business process. This paper presents the dynamic business process definitions proposed by individual authors, examines the dynamism problems, and presents architectural solutions to these problems.

“…), or deterioration of global quality of the business process [7]. In this respect, the change management is an important subject in the life cycle of any business process and it has been actively persuaded, by the research community, for the last decade [8,9]. The main objective of this research is to identify the potential effects of a change and to estimate the needs to accomplish a change.…”

Change management is a critical task to control the side effects of a modification during the business process evolution. The evolution of business processes is an essential activity for the companies to better fulfill the requirements of their customers and different stakeholders. In this respect, the enterprises should adopt an effective mechanism in order to achieve the flexible business process models. It is important to identify and highlight the ripple effects of a change for minimizing their impact on other parts or entities of the system and associated services. This paper proposes a dependency-centric approach for change impact analysis. We attempt to demonstrate the change impact propagation in business process models by detecting and analyzing the interdependencies among all parts of business processes along with associated services. It can support the maintenance and evolution of business process models. The major objective is to help the modelers and business experts to assess the associated risk of intended changes and estimate the effort required for their accomplishments.
