An entropy-based uncertainty measure of process models
Authors
Abstract
In managing business processes, the process uncertainty and variability are significant factorscausing difficulties in prediction and decision making, which evokes and augments
the importance and need of process measures for systematic analysis. We propose an
entropy-based process measure to quantify the uncertainty of business process models.
The proposed measure enables capturing the dynamic behavior of processes, in contrast
to previous work which focused on providing measures for the static aspect of process
models.
