Abstract: | In this paper the author applies the technique of hierarchical clustering to business processes identified in business systems planning (BSP) which is an important methodology in information systems planning. A measure based on notions of cohesion and coupling is proposed as a guidance in searching for optimal number of clusters of business processes. By optimality, the author means that the net cohesion is maximized and net coupling is minimized. |
