established process, we conducted a representational analysis of BPMN using a representation model based on the Bunge ontology. In … research. One outcome of this development is the Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN), which has been proposed as the new … process modelling industry standard. BPMN has become over the last two years a popular process modelling technique. This paper …

the ontological deficiencies of process modeling with the industry standard Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN). We … perform an analysis of BPMN using a theory of ontological expressiveness. Through a series of semi-structured interviews with … BPMN adopters we explore empirically the actual use of this grammar. Nine ontological deficiencies related to the practice …

relationships and patterns of behavior in terms of an ontology chart. Norm Analysis Method (NAM) is adopted to identify and formally … specify patterns of behavior and rules that govern the actions identified on the ontology chart. Information collected during … semantic and norm analysis is integrated to guide the generation of CPs using best practice represented in BPMN thus enabling …

The Business Process Modelling Notation (BPMN) is a graph-oriented language in which control and action nodes can be … connected almost arbitrarily. It is supported by various modelling tools but so far no systems can directly execute BPMN models … supported by several execution platforms. In the current setting, mapping BPMN models to BPEL code is a necessary step towards …

quantitative analysis, applied to BPMN, a widely-used business process modeling grammar. His results reveal the ontological … shortcomings of BPMN and how these manifest themselves in actual process modeling practice, as well as how they influence the usage …
