In this paper we present two approaches of combining those concepts into a coherent way.

متن کاملA Comparison of (e)EPCs and UML 2 Activity Diagrams
In this paper, Event Process Chains (EPCs) and activity diagrams (ADs) of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) are compared with respect to (1) their syntax and its expressiveness, (2) their semantic domains and problems, and (3) their pragmatics and application conditions. The comparison is based on industrial experience and a survey of the research literature. Our conclusion is that while earl...
