Business Process Management
(KM-BPM)
Business Process Management system must provide means to model, deploy business processes and to interact with, monitor and analyze Process Instances. Business Process Modeling languages such BPEL enable developers to describe the behaviour of complex processes.

Business Process Execution refers to the deployment and execution of a business process within a BPM execution engine (usually a part of BPM Software Suite). The BPM execution engine executes process instances by delegating work to humans and automated applications as specified in the Process Model. [Papazoglou & Ribbers, 2006] [Leymann 2000]
Service Composition and Coordination
(KM-SC)
Service Composition is the ability of creating composite services from simpler services. Composition is the essential means of tackling complexity in business process execution. Composition models including component and orchestration models describe the structure and behaviour of composite services. Coordination protocols define how simple or composite services interact during execution of a business process.
