Abstract: As in the foundation and principles for complex process science and
engineering, a major problem is the lack of formal specification language to
treat the dynamics of modeling complex processes with its simulations,
emulations and enactments. This paper defines a formal specification language
which allows integrating the complex thinking with software engineering
principles for guiding the characterization of minimum requirements to design
technology within living complex processes. There is a lack of research in the
literature referring to the model process structural complexity. Such a model
complex process can be directed toward acquiring good maintainability
attributes according to the principles of complex process science and
engineering. In this work a Value Based Business Process Management Network
Model (VBPMN) is developed to acquire directly from the target complex process
codes the knowledge hidden among and within composite and elementary complex
processes.
