摘要
Organizations are constantly looking for ways to improve the performance of their business processes (BPs) by making them more understandable, coordinated, streamlined, and effective. As a result, stakeholders are invited to take part in BP's management and improvement projects, which make use of modeling and simulation technologies. The influence of resources (human, monetary,...) and their allocation in a business process has a significant impact on the simulation results, thus they must be portrayed accurately from the analysts ' standpoint. By offering concepts, methodologies, and tools that combine business process modeling and simulation, this study bridges the gap between the two worlds. This paper presents perspectives on a metamodel-based transformation approach for Business Process Modeling and Notation (BPMN) models extended with Business Process Simulation Interchange Standard (BPSIM) into Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) simulation models with an emphasis on resource allocation.
