EPC markup language (EPML): an XML-based interchange format for event-driven process chains (EPC)
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article presents an XML-based interchange format for EventDriven Process Chains (EPC) that is called EPC Markup Language (EPML). EPML builds on EPC syntax related work and is tailored to be a serialization format for EPC modelling tools. Design principles inspired by other standardization efforts and XML design guidelines have governed the specification of EPML. After giving an overview of EPML concepts we present examples to illustrate its features including flat and hierarchical EPCs, business views, graphical information, and syntactical correctness.

Towards the Interchange of Configurable EPCs: An XML-based Approach for Reference Model Configuration
Recent research has led to proposals for the model-driven configuration of Enterprise Systems (ES) by the help of configurable reference models. While the proposed Configurable EPCs (C-EPCs) provide adequate conceptual support towards reference model configuration, the issue of translating the configured models towards executable process specifications has not been approached yet. A first step ...
متن کاملTransformation of ARIS Markup Language to EPML
Heterogeneous and proprietary interchange formats pose a major problem for business process management. This applies in particular to processes that have been modelled as Event-Driven Process Chains (EPCs). This paper addresses heterogeneous representations of EPCs. We take ARIS Markup Language (AML), the proprietary interchange format of ARIS Toolset, as a starting point and discuss its advant...

متن کاملXML-based Reference Modelling: Foundations of an EPC Markup Language
The advent of XML has forced the vendors of Business Process Modelling (BPM) tools to include respective import and export interfaces in their packages. But in order to leverage the benefits of XML model interchange, standardised vocabularies have to be developed. This paper describes the proposal of an EPC Markup Language from its guiding design principles to its concrete definition. We gather...
