Abstract

Patterns are widely used for describing software designs, i.e., product structures—but they may also be used to describe process structure, by adapting the well known pattern description schemes to the software process domain. But patterns may also be applied useful to describe process structures. This paper describes, how process patterns may be described using UML.
