This book constitutes the proceedings of the BPM Forum from the International Conference on Business Process Management, BPM 2016, held in Rio de Janeiro, September 2016. The BPM Forum aims at gathering papers that showcase fresh ideas and emerging topics in BPM. They have to demonstrate substantial potential for stimulating interesting discussions, even if they are not yet completely matured. This way, 13 full papers were selected from 106 submissions, where each paper was reviewed by four PC members and by one Senior PC member who moderated the discussion and wrote the meta-review. The selected papers in this volume cover topics related to process modeling, process execution and management aspects of the BPM discipline.
