Description:
This paper describes entity-flow phase analysis (EFA) which is a method for fast performance analysis of organisational process systems. EFA, similarly to traffic-flow analysis for communication systems (TFA), uses the combined approach of simulation and numerical methods. In simulation projects initiated to support the design of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) system and Business Process (BP) system in an organisation the parallel analysis of different systems may be efficient. EFA is a promising evaluation method to be applied for systems with determined BP and ICT subsystems in an organisational environment.
