Abstract: Current notations for business processes are mainly technological tools and lack strong links with the ontological items, i.e., the tasks and the business entities that information systems consist of. In particular, the information flow is missing from process models and human decisions are not adequately represented. In order to overcome those drawbacks, this paper proposes a notation, called TOMP (Task-Oriented Modeling of business Processes), which considers tasks and decisions as first-class constructs in process models and provides the explicit representation of the information flow in connection with an information model. It also illustrates the structure of to-do lists, which are the major interface between the participants and their tasks.
