Process templates are stored as valuable resources and then are
retrieved and reused in other projects. In order to find a desired template, the
semantics of various process templates should be machine-readable and
interoperable. However, the heterogeneity of both model representations and
modeling languages makes it difficult to reuse the templates. Here we adopt one
of the emerging semantic web techniques – the semantic annotation of process
templates in order to enhance the interoperability for better reuse of process
templates. Our semantic annotation consists of three basic parts: model profile,
model content and meta model annotation. A general process ontology and
domain ontologies are referenced as the annotation information. Given process
templates annotated by ontology, they are abstracted from language-specific
details but to the level of necessary details for process templates to be reused.
