Evaluation Framework for Business Process Evaluation Approaches

Business Process Management (BPM) lifecycle consists of goals specification, through the other phases such as design, implementation, execution, enactment, monitoring and evaluation of BP During process enactment information collected about execution plans that are stored in the form of log files and database tables, with information systems (IS) and use .In the past decade it has emerged a new approach based on apply Business Intelligence (BI) in business process management. Since it is the Data Warehouse (DW), technique is the backbone of the BI. The comprehensive and detailed assessment of the use of DW in the process of business is scarce compared to heavily use the DW. Therefore, in this paper we extend the existing framework in order to propose a comprehensive framework (FBPEA) that can be used to evaluate the existing approaches used DW to store and manage post-execution data in BPM. Moreover, we have used this proposed framework in the evaluation of a number of studies for the period from 2001 to 2012 selected through of intensive and comprehensive study of these approaches.
