Abstract
The paper deals with quantifying and modeling of business process structure, functionality a metrics with the use of linguistic approach, where Principle Business Process Linguistic Equation (PBPL Equation) in basic and extended plays a role of principle importance, while this aspect is considered to be the first one. The second aspect is closely related to concept of relations and algorithms create basis for postulating rules, which regulate behavior of business processes to be investigated and modeled and enable understanding them.
However, before the entire above-mentioned BP model categories, rules and algorithms could be implemented and operated, their adequate conceptual models should be designed. This is considered to be the third significant aspect related to that paper content as well.
Keywords: Business process metrics, business process views, business process rules, linguistic modeling
