Integrating the Internet of Things into Business Process Management has gained traction for several
years to improve smart applications (e.g., smart homes, Industry 4.0). Different frameworks have been
proposed to integrate IoT in all stages of the BPM lifecycle. However, current frameworks lack proper
support for dealing with issues related to error handling, like sensor faults, fallback strategies, and
redundancies. Therefore, it has to be assessed to what extent error handling should be included in
the abstraction layer of IoT-aware processes to increase both robustness and reliability.
