Abstract: A method of analyzing process steps and creating a data-driven process is disclosed. A data-driven process is a process that has its steps sequenced according to data relationships among the process steps, and the rule that a step is placed in the sequence only when all of its inputs exist. A data-driven process can only be created when all steps may be placed in the sequence according to this rule. The method determines if a process is data-driven by checking to see if any of the individual steps causes one or more errors which would prevent data-driven sequencing, and, if any errors are found, error correction is attempted in order to create a data-driven process.
