摘要/Abstract

摘要： 针对业务流程在语义层缺乏信息的共享机制,提出一种基于本体语言的业务流程建模算法,该算法将概念层次作为背景知识,将传统业务流程建模语言构建的业务流程转换为本体语言(OWL)描述,从而实现业务流程的语义共享。该算法与传统的业务流程建模方法相比具有明显的优越性：(1)加速OWL本体的构建,减少转换代价;(2)背景知识可以指导用户从数据库中提取知识。最后,使用金本位方法,并以SAP部分流程参考模型为例,验证了提出的基于本体语言建模算法的有效性。

Abstract: In the view of problem in lack of information sharing mechanisms at the semantic level among processes, a business process modeling algorithm based on ontology language using concept hierarchy as background knowledge was proposed. The business process modeling by traditional business process languages can be transferred to ontology language (OWL) description so as to realize the semantic sharing of business process. The approach has two main advantages compared with traditional methods: (1) accelerating the building process, minimizing the conversion cost; (2) background knowledge guides the extraction of knowledge resided in database. As a way of validating the approach, part of the sales order process adopted from SAP reference process models was used to construct business process ontology, to validate the method. The gold standard experiments show that this method can correct and effectively construct process ontology.

Key words: ontology, business process, concept hierarch model, process ontology
