Abstract

Great value is now being credited to the so-called Knowledge-intensive Processes (KiP) benefiting from the advent and proliferation of social media, smart devices, real-time computing, and technologies for big data. Our research investigates the origin, formalization, and support for KiP towards what we call a Knowledge-intensive Process-Aware Information System (KiPAIS). We propose a research framework to address the following challenges, aligned with the pillars of the CBPM due to intrinsic relationships among them: (1) eliciting and discovering KiP; (2) representation and support to the implementation of KiP; (3) formal theory capable of explaining KiP; (4) measuring the performance of KiP.
