  abstract = {UML activity diagrams can be used to model business 
processes which are implemented in a software project. It is a 
worthwhile goal to automatically transform at least parts of 
UML diagrams into software. Automated code generation reduces the 
total amount of errors in a software project but the model itself 
can still violate specified requirements. A quality improvement is 
the usage of a model checker which searches through the whole state 
space of model and checks whether all requirements are met. A model 
checker requires a formal description of a model for a complete 
verification. Activity diagrams often describe processes informally 
which is difficult to verify with a model checker. We therefore 
propose the transformation of activity to statechart diagrams which 
allow a more detailed and formal description. Several algorithms 
exist to map UML statecharts into a model checker input language 
for a successful formal verification. Afterwards, the model checker 
searches through the whole state space of a statechart and therefore 
has to store each state in memory. UML statecharts can reach a high 
degree of complexity which is problematic for a complete state space 
traversal because the total amount of available memory is exhausted. 
Accordingly, we present the domain specific language UDL (UML 
Statechart Modeling Language) and a transformation from UDL into the 
Spin model checker input language Promela. UDL contains features for 
property preserving abstraction which reduces the models state space 
and therefore the memory consumption of a model checker. Furthermore, 
we introduce an optimisation technique for the transformation process 
from UDL to Promela which focuses on a reduced model checker run-time. 
A case study with a movement tracking system demonstrates how our 
approach could significantly reduce the memory consumption of a model 
checker and allows the verification of complex models.},

  abstract = {Compliance management is a critical concern for corporations, required to 
respect contracts. This concern is particularly relevant in the context of business 
process management (BPM) as this paradigm is getting adopted more widely for designing 
and building IT systems. Enforcing contractual compliance needs to be modeled at 
different levels of a BPM framework, which also includes the service layer. In this 
paper, we discuss requirements and methods for modeling contractual compliance for a 
SOA-supported BPM. We also show how business rule management integrated into an industry 
BPM tool allows modeling and processing functional and non-functional-property 
constraints which may be extracted from business process contracts. This work proposes 
a framework that responds to the requirements identified and proposes an architecture 
implementing it. Our approach is also illustrated by an example.}

  abstract = {Models of commercial systems reflect either the statical structure or 
the dynamic behavior of a system. The dynamic aspects are the business processes and 
their models.
Whereas the static relations in a system may be expressed by Boolean logic, the dynamic 
activities and their temporal sequences ask for a better formalism, e.g. temporal logic. 
Temporal logic is based on Boolean logic extended by operators expressing the temporal 
order of states. In general there are different technologies to verify temporal 
sequences. Our choice is the model checking concept.
In the paper we present examples of business process models and how these models may be 
checked. We introduce a model to specify the rules (rules model) and demonstrate how 
the results of the checks can be displayed in the business process models. These models 
and the rules are represented in a graphical editor. Both models are transformed into a 
formal language which may be processed by a verification tool - a model checker in our 
case. The results are then visualized in the graphical editor indicating where the 
model violates or keeps the rules.},

engineering lifecycle. However, even though years of research have gone into seeking 
machine support for requirements engineering, the methods used are still highly manual 
and the vision of automatic transfer of business analysis requirements into IT systems 
supporting the business is still far from reach. On the other hand, incepting knowledge 
for creating AS-IS business processes in enterprise models has been recognized as a hard 
problem. In the context of a process centric organization, we propose an approach to 
create AS-IS business process models by automatically transferring requirements to the 
business process layer. Our aim is to enable carrying business requirements, goals and 
policies from an inception layer to the operational business process management layer. 
We place our research in the context of a semantic business process management platform 
(SUPER) as the support to exploit the output of our research. This paper grounds this 
research work and proposes a research design for requirement elicitation for producing 
early-phase business process models that are nearer to the business analysis layer.},

core requirements to a component. Features are used to drive the description of the 
component composition which is regarded as an combination of features expressed by
logical operators. Moreover the InPorts and OutPorts describe the dynamic component 
interactions. The combination of OutPorts and InPorts according to the component
