  4. Abstract:
  5. Business processes perform a significant role in increasing the success of organizational processes and functionalities. Due to the ever increasing growth in the scale and complexity of processes in line with taking advantage of combinational methods and ideas to optimize workflows and gain higher efficiency, lack of a framework considering both business process semantic and structure for business process modeling is completely sensible. Adding semantic to business process models will result in more comprehensible and automatically-executable processes. Moreover, preparing a suitable structure by making use of software architectural concepts will lead to a major decrease in misunderstanding of complexities. In this paper, a style-based semantic framework is represented which improves business processes and their models, and enhances management of them in a semantically and structured way; by this approach business processes will become measurable with respect to different criteria
