The paper presents the initial results of a controlled experiment that we conducted with professional database designers in order to evaluate an approach to automated design of the initial conceptual database model based on collaborative business process models. The source business process model is represented by BPMN, while the target conceptual model is represented by UML class diagram. The preliminary results confirm already obtained results in case-study based evaluation, as well as the results of an earlier controlled experiment conducted with undergraduate students. The evaluation implies that the proposed approach and implemented automatic generator enable the generation of the target conceptual model with a high percentage of completeness and precision.Read the full paper here: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-319-59466-8_18
