ABSTRACT

Business process management is about business processes and their management, to put it in simple words. Process-centric architecture's focus is business process as the key architectural component and the driver of the information technology system and other components. The stage is the beginning stage for a process. Typically, there is an existing process, and after analyzing it, the process analyst designs the new process. The process analyst models the designed process as an explicit process model. This is typically done as a graphical model using a standard business process modeling notation such as business process modeling notation. Simulation of the process is very helpful in studying the process behavior at an earlier stage itself without waiting for the process to be live in production. The process model is modified by the analyst for optimization. When the process is executing in production the process executions are monitored by the process manager and/or analyst.
