An analysis of BPMN 2.0 as a business process execution language

Abstract

The use of process modeling concepts in business scenarios enables designers to specify process requirements 0 in terms of interactions, enacted by human agents. Inter-operation of Business Processes at the human level, c rather than the software engine level, can be solved with the standardization of the Business Process Mode1 n and Notation (BPMN). BPMN 2.0 is a step forward for the whole business process management community j because it introduces not only a standard graphical notation, but also concise execution semantics for process ( execution, that can be used to enable the real execution of business processes which are modeled using it. ; In this paper, we analyze BPMN 2.0 standard with regard to its expressiveness as a Business Process , Execution Language and propose an implementation of a native BPMN 2.0 execution engine using Apache ODE's JACOB framework.
