For the new prototype, there should be two tables for Processes.  One table should have a row for each unique process name, and it should contain any information that is shared between all versions of a process (even if it is just the name).  The other will be a child table of the main Process table and should contain per-version information.  The main process table should have link to the Process Version table representing the current "active" version.  This way, the latest version of a process can be found without having to using grouping SQL operations, and also the user can easily revert to an earlier version of a process if they need to by changing a simple link.

This normalization will greatly simplify the querying of process information.
