Formal Business Process Mapping
A Modern Tool to Formally Model Sophisticated Business Processes
|
|
A
tool to precisely describe real-life business processes.
Formal
notation: processes/activities, flow, control, actors,
concurrency, exceptions, alternate paths, prerequisites,
branching, broadcasting, messaging...
