An Evolutionary Approach to Enterprise Process Collaborative Modeling Using Intelligent Software Agents

This paper presents an evolutionary approach supporting enterprise process modeling using intelligent agent technology. In this paper, an evolutionary enterprise process modeling methodology was presented from the concepts of enterprise process evolution, zero-time enterprise modeling technology to complex enterprise modeling. Based on an autonomous agent development environment, an agent-based enterprise collaborative modeling environment was implemented in which integrated some of software resource agents wrapped from the main function modules of EPMS (enterprise process modeling system).
