Abstract: In this paper we present a new approach to workflow analysis. We model the workflow using Activity diagrams, convert the Activity diagrams to Petri nets and use the theoretical results in the Petri nets domain to analyze the equivalent Petri nets and infer properties of the original workflow. We have demonstrated the possibility by developing an Eclipse plug-in, which can be used to model workflows using Activity Diagrams and then analyze these workflow models using Petri nets.
