    Calculating with concepts: a technique for the development of business process support
    (Practical UML-based rigorous development methods - Countering or integrating the extremists, workshop of the pUML-group held together with the UML 2001, 2001) Dijkman, Remco M.; Ferreira Pires, Luís; Joosten, Stef M.M.
    This paper introduces the Calculating with Concepts (CC) technique, which has been developed to improve the precision of UML class diagrams and allows the formal reasoning based on these diagrams. This paper aims at showing the industrial benefits of using such a formal and rigorous approach to reason about business processes and software applications in the early phases of the software development process. The paper discusses how the CC technique can be used in the specification of business processes and in the development of their supporting software applications or tools. This paper also illustrates the use of the tech- nique with a realistic case study on tool integration.

    Factors that Determine the Extent of Business Process Standardization and the Subsequent Effect on Business Performance
    (Business & Information Systems Engineering: Vol. 57, No. 4, 2015) Romero, Heidi L.; Dijkman, Remco M.; Grefen, Paul W. P. J.; Weele, Arjan J.
    Business process standardization is the activity of unifying different variants of a family of business processes. While the positive effects of business process standardization are well-described, it is often undesirable to fully unify different variants due to cultural, legal, or operational reasons. Consequently, a decision has to be made about the extent to which a family of business processes should be standardized. However, little is known about the factors that drive that decision. This paper fills that gap, by presenting factors that drive the extent to which business processes can be standardized, performance properties that are influenced by business process standardization, and relations between these concepts.
