Reviews
From the reviews:
“Draheim’s book serves to help unify these fields by clarifying the differences and the similarities in the concepts, relating the technologies to computer science principles, and envisioning a unified future for the use of business process technology. … The book has been carefully written and effectively organized. It is technically precise, without getting too deep in the weeds to distract readers from the concepts or examples being presented. Many helpful diagrams are included, and 363 references are given.” (M. G. Murphy, ACM Computing Reviews, August, 2011)
