An interesting analogy is with the building industry: it is no doubt the case that building material science has improved considerably over the years. Are components bigger than they were many years ago? In some cases yes, we have prefabricated concrete blocks, and even prefabricated houses, where only a very small number of components are required. However, the technology still relies on immensely complex processes to build good quality houses, and what has happened is tht the development of technology has been accompanied by the development of the increasingly high skill levels of developers of houses, for example the house is now still generally built with Bricks, but this construction will be double brick, in order to increase strength and insulation, and some of the design work will be done with computer aided design tools. Technical specifications of the labourers to build the houses are also increasing.

From the point of view of the computer system development, we should expect not only that business automation will improve because of the technology, but also that we can increasingly rely on the higher understanding and qualification of those professionals carrying out the job, which as in many industries leads to increasing bureaucracy and legalisation of the industry.

Business modelling is defined both interms of the work roles performed by personnel and the tasks carried out by automated systems. As these automated systems are becoming more sophisticated, the activity defined by these systems may be able to be described more and more in agent terms, thus creating a more seamless agent-agent interaction protocol when describing the activities of future business systems.

Business modelling is the formalisation of the work activity to define the system requirements for the future systems of the company. It therefore represents the optimal interface between business requirements and the system design language.
