Abstract

Based on an in-depth analysis of existing approaches in applying semantic technologies into Business Process Management (BPM) research in perspective of business-to-business integration (B2Bi), we analyse, discuss and compare the methodologies, applications and best practices of the surveyed approaches. This paper identifies various relevant research directions in semantic-based BPM or Semantic BPM (SBPM). Based on the result of our investigation we summarise the state of the art of SBPM and address areas and directions of further research activities.
