This doctoral thesis focuses on the spread of process information in organizations and in
particular on the mitigation of the problems caused by the spread of information on a single
process over numerous models documents and systems. Processes within organizations can be
highly complex chains of inter-related steps involving numerous stakeholders and information
systems. Due to this complexity having access to the right information is vital to the proper
execution and effective management of an organization's business processes. The main
contributions of this thesis are five techniques that focus on the alignment and comparison of
process information from different informational artifacts. Each of these techniques tackles a
specific scenario involving multiple informational artifacts that contain process information
in different representation formats.
