Transportation Process of Containers BPMN-Modeling and Transformation into ACTIF Model

In this paper, we propose to model the transportation process of containers in the Nord-Pas de Calais Region (France). Based on the BPMN (Business Process Modeling Notation) approach, it allows deriving a comprehensive vision of the process and a friendly-user interface of the logistics chain for the analysis and the decision making. Furthermore, ACTIF (Aide à la Conception de systèmes de Transports Interopérables en France), a modeling approach proposed by the French Transportation Ministry, appears to be an interesting alternative approach since it assures the interoperability between the transport systems in France. Hence, we propose a model transformation procedure of the BPMN-model into an ACTIF model. Key-words: Model Driven Architecture, BPMN model, ACTIF model, Model Transformation.
