  • Specifying reusable process models
    Patent number: 8938714
    Abstract: A method and system for specifying a reusable process model. Sub-processes of a base process are identified as having a potential to be modified. By filling in values in a configurable pattern applied to each identified sub-process, dynamic categories are mapped to the identified sub-processes, thereby allowing the sub-processes to be reusable. A change to business requirements occurs, where the base process is based on the business requirements. Based on the change to the business requirements, a change to the values in the configurable pattern applied to a sub-process is received. The change to the values in the configurable pattern does not require a change to the base process.
