1. A method for modeling business transformation, the method comprising:
- a. constructing a first analysis model based on at least one legacy-business-process-model, wherein the first analysis model is a business process model representing a partitioning of the first legacy-business-process-model into a plurality of sub-processes and a plurality of tasks;
b. analyzing the first analysis model in conjunction with at least one business-process-reference-model;
c. deriving a second analysis model in response to analyzing the first analysis model in conjunction with the at least one business-process-reference-model; and
d. refining the second analysis model to obtain a design model, wherein the refining step comprises applying a plurality of model transformations, wherein the plurality of model transformations transform the second analysis model to the design model.
