Abstract

A key issue for process language design is balancing the need for semantic richness with the need for ease of use. Most process modeling languages fail to satisfy above two conflicting aspects, which is an impediment to the widespread adoption of process modeling languages in the software industry despite of a variety of software process language studies. This paper describes a process modeling language RAiSE attempting to resolve such problem and presents the result of applying RAiSE to a well-known benchmark process, ISPW-6 software process example. RAiSE provides rigorous, yet clear semantics through combing essential features in various modeling paradigms and defining them in a well-structured graphical notation. Process models represented in RAiSE are interpreted and enacted by process engine implemented using CLiPS, a rule based expert system tool.
