Conceptual modeling in Business Process Management (BPM) is one of the core research areas of Information Systems (IS). A variety of different strategies for modeling support and model analysis exists such as syntax-based auto-completion features, recommendation techniques, correctness and compliance checking, abstraction and matching, semantic and domain patterns, or AI-based planning approaches. These mechanisms increasingly gain attention in the BPM and conceptual modeling community. ...Conceptual modeling in Business Process Management (BPM) is one of the core research areas of Information Systems (IS). A variety of different strategies for modeling support and model analysis exists such as syntax-based auto-completion features, recommendation techniques, correctness and compliance checking, abstraction and matching, semantic and domain patterns, or AI-based planning approaches. These mechanisms increasingly gain attention in the BPM and conceptual modeling community. Due to the great variety of techniques and use cases of modeling support systems, research is scattered amongst different sub-communities of the large BPM and conceptual modeling communities and a common ground for discussion and research is not yet established. In order to bring together researchers working on different aspects of modeling support systems, the new working group Semantic Technologies in Business Process Management (SEMTECHBPM) has been established, which is associated with the EMISA, a sub-group of the GERMAN INFORMATICS SOCIETY (GI). The article at hand presents the second part of our overview article presenting first results of the SEMTECHBPM working group in outlining different existing research streams engaged with semantic technologies in business process modeling and - analysis. Although we discussed all aspects in the working group and also invited nonmembers to contribute their knowledge prior to writing this article, we make no claim that the overview provided with this article is well-balanced or exhaustive. Rather, it should serve as a starting point to foster the collaboration between researchers engaged with semantic technologies in BPM and to promote their results. We are open to comments and welcome researchers who want to participate in the SEMTECHBPM working group. In the second part of the article, we focus on the extraction and usage of domain patterns and (semantic) process model elicitation technique» weiterlesen» einklappen
