It might help to give us some context for your question. For example, if interested in process in business, then it emerges in the late 19th century and in the second half of the 20th becomes process management, TQM etc. If in science, then it is language substituted for what otherwise we all think of as the scientific method. Even earlier the notions of methods and techniques are embodiments of the idea of process. Hence, my request for context. On Sat, Dec 29, 2018 at 4:56 PM Laurent Bloch <lb@laurentbloch.org> wrote:
Hi,
Surely many of you know the answer: who invented the concept of process, and when?
Thank you for your answers. Have a nice Sunday!
