Abstract

The article presents results of systematic literature review about business process modeling environment based on a cloud computing. The research methodology is evolved. In this paper the research set of 3901 articles is presented and examined. The sources were used for analyses came from Scopus, Web of Science, and EBSCOhost databases. The aim of the paper is to show the impact of cloud computing environment on business process modeling based on literature review. The research subject area is limited to Computer science category in cloud computing, business process modelling, and business process management subcategories. The research date set was limited to 313 items based on chosen literature sources indexed from year 2009 to 2020. The development of cloud based models in business process modelling and management, known as BPaaS, eBPM, and BPMaaS are described. The paper shows the state-of-art of business process lifecycle management and presents some classic methods of usage in modeling tools based on BPMN notation, UML, and Petri nets notations. The research methodology uses the different methods of data gathering and searching algorithms, with computer programming. The final findings based on the research questions (RQ1–RQ6) are described and presented in tables and on figures. The conclusion with future research ideas have been shown.
