Traditional semantic models are based on entity notations provided by several links. Links are established to capture semantic detail about relationships among concepts. The ability to describe a process in a clear and sufficiently rich way is acknowledged as crucial to conceptual modelling. Current workflow models used in business process re-engineering offer limited analytical capabilities. Entity-Relationship models and Data Flow Diagrams are closer to the technical system development stage and, therefore, they do not capture organisational aspects. Although object-oriented models are quite comprehensible for users, they are not provided by rules of reasoning and complete integration between static and dynamic diagrams. The ultimate objective of this paper is to introduce principles of integration for different classes of semantic and pragmatic representations.Read the full paper here: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-540-49524-6_10
