An Approach to Analyzing Existing Process RepresentationsThe goal of the NIST Process Specification Language (PSL) project is to investigate and arrive at a common, unifying model of process which will ultimately be suitable for multiple process-related applications, yet powerful and robust enough to meet each set of requirements. This paper focuses on the second phase of the project, that of analyzing existing process representations to determine how well they represent the information requirements found in an earlier phase of the project.Throughout the course of this project, a strictly empirical representation analysis will help to answer questions such as: With so many existing process representations available, which representations are best for different purposes? What is the best way to analyze these representations to determine their strengths and weaknesses? If there is not one ideal representation, can aspects of many be merged together?
