This book provides the most complete formal specification of the
semantics of the Business Process Model and Notation 2.0 standard
(BPMN) available to date, in a style that is easily understandable
for a wide range of readers - not only for experts in formal
methods, but e.g. also for developers of modeling tools, software
architects, or graduate students specializing in business process
management. BPMN - issued by the Object Management Group - is a
widely used standard for business process modeling. However, major
drawbacks of BPMN include its limited support for organizational
modeling, its only implicit expression of modalities, and its lack
of integrated user interaction and data modeling. Further, in many
cases the syntactical and, in particular, semantic definitions of
BPMN are inaccurate, incomplete or inconsistent. The book addresses
concrete issues concerning the execution semantics of business
processes and provides a formal definition of BPMN process
diagrams, which can serve as a sound basis for further extensions,
i.e., in the form of horizontal refinements of the core language.
To this end, the Abstract State Machine (ASMs) method is used to
formalize the semantics of BPMN. ASMs have demonstrated their value
in various domains, e.g. specifying the semantics of programming or
modeling languages, verifying the specification of the Java Virtual
Machine, or formalizing the ITIL change management process. This
kind of improvement promotes more consistency in the interpretation
of comprehensive models, as well as real exchangeability of models
between different tools. In the outlook at the end of the book, the
authors conclude with proposing extensions that address actor
modeling (including an intuitive way to denote permissions and
obligations), integration of user-centric views, a refined
communication concept, and data integration.
