Abstract :
This effort expands on the traditional process analysis that focuses on procedural process as the model for describing complex processes. A new model was developed from observing the New Millennium Program (NMP) process for flight validating new technologies. The new process type analysis methodology (PTAM) includes four process types, anomaly identification and reflective verification. A number of examples are presented to illustrate the use of the new approach.
