Description / Abstract:
General
The Object Management Group (OMG) has developed
a standard Business Process Model and Notation
(BPMN). The primary goal of BPMN is to
provide a notation that is readily understandable by all business
users, from the business analysts that create the initial drafts of
the processes, to the technical developers responsible for
implementing the technology that will perform those processes, and
finally, to the business people who will manage and monitor those
processes. Thus, BPMN creates a standardized
bridge for the gap between the business process design and process
implementation.
Another goal, but no less important, is to ensure that XML
languages designed for the execution of business processes, such as
WSBPEL (Web Services Business Process Execution
Language), can be visualized with a business-oriented notation.
This International Standard represents the amalgamation of best
practices within the business modeling community to define the
notation and semantics of Collaboration diagrams,
Process diagrams, and
Choreography diagrams. The intent of
BPMN is to standardize a business process model
and notation in the face of many different modeling notations and
viewpoints. In doing so, BPMN will provide a
simple means of communicating process information to other business
users, process implementers, customers, and suppliers.
The membership of the OMG has brought forth expertise and
experience with many existing notations and has sought to
consolidate the best ideas from these divergent notations into a
single standard notation. Examples of other notations or
methodologies that were reviewed are UML Activity Diagram, UML EDOC
Business Processes, IDEF, ebXML BPSS, Activity-Decision Flow (ADF)
Diagram, RosettaNet, LOVeM, and Event-Process Chains (EPCs).
