TLDR
An empirical diagnostic analysis of control flow errors such as deadlock and lack of synchronization as well as syntactic errors arising out of poor modeling practices for real-life industrial process models is provided.Abstract:
Business process models expressed in languages such as BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation) play a critical role in implementing the workflows in modern organizations. However, control flow errors such as deadlock and lack of synchronization as well as syntactic errors arising out of poor modeling practices often occur in industrial process models. In this paper, we provide an empirical diagnostic analysis of such errors for real-life industrial process models. The investigation involved models from different application domains. It turns out that error frequency has non-linear relation with error depth (the maximum depth at which an error occurred) across models from all domains. Error occurrence has statistically significant correlations (pread more

Understanding the Occurrence of Errors in Process Models Based on Metrics
TL;DR: In this article, the connection between formal errors (such as deadlocks) and a set of metrics that capture various structural and behavioral aspects of a process model is discussed, and a comprehensive validation based on an extensive sample of EPC process models from practice is provided.

Diagnosing Industrial Business Processes: Early Experiences
TL;DR: This work considers industrial business processes modeled in Business Process Modeling Notation BPMN and uses graph-theoretic techniques and Petri net-based analyses to detect syntactic and control flow related errors respectively and diagnoses different types of errors.
