Abstract

Business process and workflows represent diagrams as Business Process Model Language (BPML), Unified Model Language (UML), which may contain errors made by a designer. In order to check that errors, we developed a new grammar (called RV-grammar) that allows us to increase quality of business process management and workflow systems by 20 % oppositely with a reserved graph grammar, a positional grammar, and a relational grammar. Thus, we propose an intelligent agent system based on RV-grammar to analysis business-process models for manufacturing. The system has linear time in order to facilitate the automatically identification of a variety of syntax and semantical errors in workflow models, which enables the analysis of 4 additional types of errors.
