abstract = "Organizations use business process management techniques to manage their core business processes more efficiently. A recent technique is the synchronization of multiple process instances by processing a set of activities as a batch – referred to as batch regions, e.g., the shipment of goods of several order processes at once. During process execution, events occur providing information about state changes of (a) the business process environment and (b) the business process itself. Thus, these events may influence batch processing. In this paper, we investigate how these events influence batch processing to enable flexible and improved batch region execution. Therefore, we introduce the concept of batch adjustments that are defined by rules following the Event-Condition-Action principle. Based on batch adjustment rules, relevant events are correlated at run-time to batch executions that fulfill the defined condition and are adjusted accordingly. We evept by a real-world use case.",
