Brief characteristics
We apply the ASM also for modelling of process and process data. This method is based on the nature of process itself. Process can be expressed as a consequent changing of state objects which change in process. With simple reconstruction of the basic ASM method, we obtain the structure of process. This structure shows sequence of process phases and offers the concrete output and gives the possibility to observe the course of process. Process can be described in the mean of change of state objects and their parameters. The general process model is shown on Fig. 1.

Application
This method can be applied on modelling of process data and process itself. We applied it on optimalization of returnable packaging evidence in logistics. This model is shown on Fig. 2.

This model was presented in the Proceeding of IEEE International Conference on Service Operations and Logistics, and Informatics, 2007. Philadelphia, PA, USA, 2007.
