Decentralised Process Modelling

In this paper, we advocate decentralised process modelling and suggest that understanding and modelling the development processes of individual development participants is the key to supporting collaborative development. Our approach relies on recognising individual developers’ states (“situations”) by analysing local development histories. Different situations can be used to trigger a variety of further development actions, such as consistency checks between process models of different development participants. We report on experience using regular expressions to specify particular situations and rules to associate actions with these situations.
