Abstract

Understanding processes is very important since todays processes are getting more and more complex. Therefore, a visual representation is often helpful. In many cases, the processes are similar and rely on the same components in the same system structure. Current tools lack in particular with respect to the presentation of multiple processes that are based on the same involved structure but slightly differ in the sequence of events. In this paper we introduce a tool for visualizing script-based animated processes. The underlying structure can be reused by only modifying the script containing the process’ events. The highly adaptable visualizations allow a direct and clear view on a process and intuitive functionalities to traverse through its steps. Finally, we show its usage in two case studies from different domains.
