摘要
The change region in business process is potential and easily causing the inconsistency region. Therefore, the trustworthiness analysis of business system from the perspective of change region of business model is also one of the ways to solve the trusted management of business system. Proposed research mainly focus on the change region about the control flow of business process, or the interaction analysis of control flow and data flow, with little attention to the behavior inclusion relationships between the control flow and the data flow, and their influence to each other. In the view of control flow and data flow exist in the business process model, the fusion analysis method about the change region of the business process model is proposed based on behavior inclusion. Firstly, the change region of the control flow and the data flow Petri net models are analyzed respectively. Then, we determine the final change region of the fusion nets in the target model according to the relation of behavior inclusion. Furthermore, aimed to the process model existing silent transitions, we presented the calculation method of closeness in business process models. By analyzing the closeness of the control flow or the data flow with the fusion nets, we could determine the influence degree to the change region of the fusion nets. Finally, we use concrete instance and simulation experiment to verify the effectiveness of the method. © 2018, Science Press. All right reserved.
