Welcome
Welcome to the official homepage of the Business Process Management Research Cluster. We are part of the Quality Engineering (QE) research group and the Institute of Computer Science, located at the University of Innsbruck. As summarized in the research section, we are focusing on empirical methods to obtain in-depth understanding of how business processes can be effectively supported. If you have questions that go beyond the content of this homepage, feel free to contact us at any time.

The Process of Process Modeling
Process modeling has gained increasing importance for documenting business operations and automating workflow execution. However, process models display a wide range of quality problems impeding their comprehensibility and consequently hampering their maintainability. Literature reports, for example, error rates between 10% and 20% in industrial process model collections. Moreover, non-intention-revealing or inconsistent naming, redundant process fragments,… [more]
Visting Researcher: Andrés Jiménez Ramírez
Andrés Jiménez Ramírez from the University of Seville joins our team for three months. Andrés is working with us on multi-objective planning and scheduling techniques in the context of declarative processes. As a fan of Betis Sevilla he also agreed to support our football team with his superior dribbling skills.
