Abstract

This paper discusses a set of business (sub-)process types represented as “workflow block activity patterns”. We describe all patterns in a common language (UML 2.0) and through some study cases we tried to find out whether they are frequently reused during business/workflow process modeling. The results showed that the patterns are frequently identified in both workflow elements and workflow applications. We believe they can be reused to improve the quality as well as the performance of the design phase in a workflow project.
