业务过程模型的构建已成为过程分析和优化的重要前提。分析和优化工作的成功在很大程度上取决于模型的质量。因此，一个研究领域出现，研究过程建模的过程。本文通过提供一种可视化建模者构建过程模型的不同步骤的方法（即所谓的过程建模图的过程）来促进这项研究。图形化表示降低了发现建模过程属性的认知努力，这有利于理论，培训和工具支持的研究和开发，以提高模型质量。该文件包含一个广泛的概述，该工具的应用程序，证明其有用的研究和实践，并讨论了从其他工作的可视化观察。通过一项定性研究对可视化进行了评估，该研究证实了其实用性和附加值，与启发可视化的虚线图相比。
The construction of business process models has become an important requisite in the analysis and optimization of processes. The success of the analysis and optimization efforts heavily depends on the quality of the models. Therefore, a research domain emerged that studies the process of process modeling. This paper contributes to this research by presenting a way of visualizing the different steps a modeler undertakes to construct a process model, in a so-called process of process modeling Chart. The graphical representation lowers the cognitive efforts to discover properties of the modeling process, which facilitates the research and the development of theory, training and tool support for improving model quality. The paper contains an extensive overview of applications of the tool that demonstrate its usefulness for research and practice and discusses the observations from the visualization in relation to other work. The visualization was evaluated through a qualitative study that confirmed its usefulness and added value compared to the Dotted Chart on which the visualization was inspired.
