We present the integration of BEBoP - understandaBility vErifier for Business Process models, into the Apromore open-source process analytics platform. Given a BPMN model the tool allows one to verify which understandability modeling guidelines such as layout conventions are violated by the model. Such guidelines are rules that a model designer should follow to guarantee that the designed model is easy to understand by relevant stakeholders. Given the variety of stakeholders that need to interpret these models, and considering the pivotal function that process models play within organizations, understandability becomes a fundamental quality requirement that needs to be taken into account by designers. The tool provides model designers with textual and graphical representations of which understandaiblity guidelines are violated. Designers can then decide to repair models in such a way to guarantee a higher degree of understandability.

Abstract
We present the integration of BEBoP - understandaBility vErifier for Business Process models, into the Apromore open-source process analytics platform. Given a BPMN model the tool allows one to verify which understandability modeling guidelines such as layout conventions are violated by the model. Such guidelines are rules that a model designer should follow to guarantee that the designed model is easy to understand by relevant stakeholders. Given the variety of stakeholders that need to interpret these models, and considering the pivotal function that process models play within organizations, understandability becomes a fundamental quality requirement that needs to be taken into account by designers. The tool provides model designers with textual and graphical representations of which understandaiblity guidelines are violated. Designers can then decide to repair models in such a way to guarantee a higher degree of understandability.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
