Abstract

Anomalies in business process models refer to deviations from their expected structure, functionality, behavior, semantics, use of concepts and their expression, among others. The research in this paper focuses on anomalies in business process models with the aim to propose taxonomy of anomalies and devise ways to avoid them or to eliminate them when they occur. Anomalies are divided into basic categories and subcategories to the level of granularity that allows their differentiation, description of their specific causes and workarounds as well as their expression in the pattern format.
