We define an abstract model for the dynamic semantics of the core process modeling concepts in the OMG standard for BPMN 2.0. The UML class diagrams associated therein with each flow element are extended with a rigorous behavior definition, which reflects the inheritance hierarchy structure by refinement steps. The correctness of the resulting precise algorithmic model for an execution semantic...

By now, the mapping from BPMN to BPEL has been implemented in numerous tools, greatly assisting the business architect in the creation of BPEL processes. However, most of these tools are tailored especially for this transformation, neglecting the original purpose of BPMN: Providing a language independent process model. To address this shortcoming, a pure BPMN editor is needed, being dynamically...

Although BPMN 2.0 is an international standard widely used in practice, interoperability of process models is still an issue. Even between tools and engines claiming to be BPMN compliant the model exchange is often complicated or impossible as the tools produce incorrect model representations or do not support the standardized BPMN serialization format. In this position paper we present reasons...

The ontological deficiencies of process modeling in practice. ABSTRACT Business process modeling is widely regarded as one of the most popular forms of conceptual modeling. However, little is known about the capabilities and deficiencies of process modeling grammars and how existing deficiencies impact actual process modeling practice. This paper is a first contribution towards a theory-driven,...

bpmn is a de-facto standard with more than 70 commercial tools that currently support its use. However, its the semantic ambiguities jeopardize its implementation. We perform an ontological analysis of important constructs of bpmn like activities and events to highlight their implicit commitments.

The need for using high-level modeling tools (e.g. BPMN) is increasing considerably. The proliferation of the service oriented architectures (SOA) is also apparent. In this context, there is a gap between the developed model and its execution. This work introduces the MoSC Translator which translates models produced in BPMN into executable WS-BPEL processes.

The optimization of material flow systems requires a profound understanding the underlying processes. Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) is an established way creating process model that allows interdisciplinary analysis optimization. Quantitative exploration using discrete-event simulation can help to enrich these insights. For reason, this paper introduces combined BPMN approach conne...

Business process models are components of efficient and structured management of organizations and enterprises. There are different incentives to model business process in enterprises. Nonetheless, creation and maintenance of business process models requires significant effort by the enterprise or organization in terms of personal resources, time and costs (Tscheschner 2006). Therefore, process...
