Abstract

This paper proposes structural consistency checking for Adaptive Case Management (ACM). Structures such as a hierarchical organization of business goals and dependencies among tasks are either created at design time or evolve over time while working on cases. In this paper, we identify structures specific to current ACM systems (as opposed to other BPM systems), discuss which inconsistencies can occur, and outline how to discover these issues through model checking and graph algorithms.
