A Study on the Application of Object-Oriented Methodologies to Process Modeling : Cognitive Integration Process of Multiple Models

객체지향방법론을 이용한 프로세스모델링에 대한 연구 - 복수 모형의 인지적 통합과정을 중심으로 -

It has been argued theoretically and empirically that the analysis of business processes requires the decomposition of an integrated system. However, in order to innovate a business process, cognitive integration activities that try to understand the decomposed features of the business process as an integrated system are essential. This research aims at 1) empirically investigating the cognitive process of integrating multiple diagrams while using object-oriented methodologies in process modeling ; 2) identifying a cognitive integration strategy that supports the successful comprehension of business processes with the use of multiple diagrams ; and 3) proposing guidelines for developing supporting tools for effective business process engineering by using object-oriented process modeling.
