Abstract: A method and system are described for analyzing process models. An example method includes determining a first perspective based on a first goal of a user. The method further includes selecting a first task definition related to the first goal, obtaining one or more process models, wherein each process model includes a plurality of task nodes each representing task instances arranged in one or more ordered paths, wherein each of the task nodes represents a task instance associated with one of the task definitions, determining a first related node set of one or more of the task nodes based on determining one or more of the task nodes representing task instances associated with the first task definition, and sending an indication to the user of one or more relative locations in the ordered paths of the task nodes included in the first related node set.
