English Abstract
Business Process Modelling (BPM) is the activity of representing processes of an organization, so that the current process may be analyzed and improved in the future.
It provides a facility to decision makers which help them filter out irrelevant complexity in the real world and concentrate on the most important parts of the process under study.
BPM is typically performed by business analyst and managers who are seeking to improve process efficiency and quality.
So, BPM is used mainly to provide a comprehensive business process analysis and improvement.
A system model can be defined as an abstract description of a system whose requirements are being analyzed.
The availability of BPMs in any organizations may not tie to any corresponding software system.
Rather, they may exist much before automation of the business process of any organization.
Bridging the gap between BPMs and system models is important for the different stakeholder involved, so as to ensure that an anticipated software system will be in line with the business processes.
The gab may be further widened given the rate at which software technology develops, for example with the emergence of grid technology in business environment.
Therefore, the challenge here to investigate and synthesis approaches that will in some way support, and perhaps partially or fully automate the business process so that the process is not simply modeled but also enacted, through an IT-based solution.
This thesis aims to develop a new approach for linking business process models and system models.
Our new approach passes through the six phases used in developing a business process model.
The process modeling language RAD (Role Activity Diagramming) is used as one of the main technique.
The suggested method derives system models based on the results of the enhanced understanding, analysis, and evaluation of the business process models.
Our suggested approach uses the healthcare process as running example.
The new approach which includes detailed modeling and analysis saves plenty of time which was wasted in data gathering phase in system development life cycle and producing a prototype model for the system from the business process which will be more significant.
