Abstract

This paper provides a novel approach for the modeling of undesired event sequences in complex computer based information systems. In doing so, it shows how object oriented event process chains (oEPC) are adapted for modeling undesired event sequences and presents a case study, where the approach is applied. Based on this approach system dynamcs and complexity can be analyzed and an efficient risk analysis approach can be established.
