A Framework for Visually Monitoring Business Process Compliance (Extended Abstract)

Any enterprise must ensure that its business processes comply with imposed compliance
rules. This extended abstract presents a comprehensive framework for visually monitoring business
process compliance. As opposed to existing approaches, the framework supports the visual
monitoring of all relevant process perspectives based on the extended Compliance Rule Graph
(eCRG) language. Furthermore, it not only allows for the detection of violations, but additionally
highlights their causes. Finally, the framework assists users in both monitoring business process
compliance and ensuring the compliant continuation of running business processes. Overall, the
framework provides a fundamental contribution towards the real-time monitoring of compliance in
process-driven enterprises.
