The business process must reflect changes in theenvironment, therefore the
adaptation of the process model orthe particular process instance is essential.
The statecompliance criterion has been introduced to check thatdynamic process
change is correct and does not lead tosoundness problems or run-time errors. In
some cases,however, the process instance must immediately be migrated tothe
changed model or updated itself; hence the strategy ofcoping with the
non-compliant process instance must bechosen. This paper presents the process
re-execution approachwhich effectively implements the state compliance test. The
reexecutionalgorithm makes it possible to defer the suitableactivities and use
them later, thus offering a flexible solutionfor treating the non-compliant
process instances. Moreover,a custom strategy of treating can be used based on
the fullcontext of the activity that caused the inconsistency.
