The relationships existing between a business process and the supporting software systems is a critical concern for the organizations, as it directly affects their performance. The research described in this paper is concerned with the ALBIS Environment – ALigning Business processes and Information Systems, designed to support software maintenance tasks. In particular, the proposed environment allows the modeling and tracing between business and software entities and the measurement of their alignment degree. An information retrieval approach is embedded in ALBIS based on two processing phases including syntactic and semantic analysis. The usefulness of the environment is discussed through a case study.
