Abstract :
Workflow is the most widespread modeling technique application in the field of business and office information systems. In the previous paper introduced P-graph-based workflow modeling extended by the introduction of resource management is a systematic, fast method of optimal workflow model generation based on network synthesis with correct mathematical background. In this paper a further extension, a fuzzy extension of this P-graph based workflow model is introduced. The goal of the new extension is to achieve a better modeling of real processes, and a better management of real life, ambiguous, non-exactly definable situations.
