		Only with the visibility provided by process management can end-to-end processes be understood, anomalies spotted, redundancy eradicated and inefficiencies eliminated.
		Process management integrates everyone and everything once; thereafter, process design, transformation and experience take place freely and continuously, not as a series of infrequent, long-winded, piecemeal and distracting "integration projects" for each new process design.
		The bad news is that achieving them requires a wholehearted commitment to process and an abandonment of the thinking and practices inherent in functional organizations.

	FreeBSD Process Management > Introduction to Process Management
		The process structure contains information that must always remain resident in main memory, along with references to other structures that remain resident, whereas the user structure contains information that needs to be resident only when the process is executing (although user structures of other processes also may be resident).
		Process structures are allocated dynamically as part of process creation and are freed as part of process exit.
		Processes that execute for the duration of their slice have their priority lowered, whereas processes that give up the CPU (usually because they do I/O) are allowed to remain at their priority.

		Business Process Management (BPM) has become one of the most important enterprise software market segments as evidenced by recent industry analyst reports, as well as a growing number of companies claiming to offer BPM software.
