Abstract
Modern process optimization approaches do build on various qualitative and quantitative tools, but are mainly limited to simple relations in different process perspectives like cost, time or stock. In this paper, a new approach is presented which focuses on techniques of the area of Artificial Intelligence to capture complex relations within processes. Hence, a fundamental value increase is intended to be gained. Existing modeling techniques and languages serve as basic concepts and try to realize the junction of apparently contradictory approaches. This paper therefore draws a vision of promising future process optimization techniques and presents an innovative contribution.
