Abstract

Business processes are obliged to follow numerous constraints, such as compliance regulations, service level agreements, security regulations, and budget constraints. To be able to understand relations between different constraint types and their impact on the business, a common constraint specification framework is required. This work presents a framework that provides visual support for analysis of the dependencies between the different constraints a business process has to adhere to by mapping logical constraints to the spatial restrictions. This enables a business process designer to gain insight into how different constraints influence the process as a whole.
