EPBPM: A graphical language supporting interoperability of participatory process

Abstract:

In recent years, there has been an increase in the desire by citizens to participate in public decision-making. This has led to the emergence of numerous participatory processes across the world. A participatory process may be described as a set of participatory common tasks satisfying certain constraints. The design of such processes may become a complex task for inexperienced individuals. We develop an architecture to support distributed decision making that allows for executing most participatory processes available and propose a method to design participatory processes filling only a simple form allowing its further modification through a graphical interface. To do this we rely on business process management systems, using the BPM standard notation (BPMN).
