Modelling pipelined business processes

We propose a definition of a pipelined business process and a model that allows computing the attributes of the pipeline. These attributes include: pipeline performance; build-up time, critical operation that restrains performance. We develop the algorithm for pipeline attributes calculation, and perform structural analysis of a pipeline. We show that the behavior of complex is determined by the set of derivative linear pipelines, and prove the corresponding theorem. The operation of pipeline is illustrated by graphs and charts.
