Abstract

In today’s information era, one of the greatest areas of confusion is the terminology used to name abstract business process concepts which are mostly unclear, blurred and ambiguous among people. This study attempts to remedy the problem of the often-occurring issue of terminology confusion in business process domain. Following a nested approach, from mission to event, the work firstly defines essential terms used in the area of research in order to create a common understanding. The paper then formalizes the relations between the terms represented within a consolidated class diagram. Therefore, the study aims to contribute the body of knowledge in this area especially for people from practice by consolidating all relevant terms and providing a meta-model from a consistent point of view.
