Abstract:Modeling techniques have been productively applied to Business Process (BP) redesign. They have been also successfully employed to assist Information Technology (IT) applications design and development. However, although BP and IT interact in practice, suggesting that modeling in those areas should also be done in parallel, surprisingly few works have addressed the issue of integrated BP/IT modeling. In this paper we discuss the potential of discrete-event Business Process Simulation (BPS) and Computer Network… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
