  • Abstract
    Beginning with the observations that process definition formalisms are not very different from general purpose programming languages and that almost every type of programming language has been used as the basis of one or more process definition formalisms, we conclude that the field of process definition formalisms is quite immature. We speculate on the future maturation of this field by proposing a set of maturity levels by which to measure that maturation
