3 Tutorial Objectives This tutorial will cover BPMN Timeline What BPMN is, Process Modelling BPMN Essentials Orchestration, Choreography Examples Wrap Up, Future Directions

4 References BPMN Official Page BPMN Wikipedia BPMN Specification (v2.0 Beta 2) BPMN Specification (v1.2 Formal) BPMN Examples (v2.0 Beta 2)

5 BPMN Timeline Business Process Management Initiative developed BPML (BPMI now part of OMG) Proposed graphical language for BPM, combined with execution semantics Implementation difficulties, semantic requirements BPML replaced with: BPEL (or BPEL4WS) for target execution language BPMN for graphical notation History August 2001 Notation working group formed (35 companies) May 2004 BPMN 1.0 published under BPMI 2005 BPMI becomes part of OMG Feb 2006 BPMN 1.0 formalised as an OMG specification Jan 2008 BPMN 1.1 released Jan 2009 BPMN 1.2 released Aug 2009 BPMN 2.0 Beta 1 released May 2010 BPMN 2.0 Beta 2 released Finalisation & Adoption

6 What Is BPMN? BPMN is A Graphical modelling language, with symbols, relationships and attributes for the purpose of process modelling Expression of processes generated into executable processes (BPEL) Expression of processes for general execution (Human, human-operated) Simple, palatable language flowchart-like non-it practitioner consumption BPMN is not A methodology, process, framework Complex, usable in subsets *Metamodel *Serialization specification * Exists in BPMN 2.0 ( was-not, until recently )

7 BPMN & Process Modelling Process Modelling -capture of ordered sequences of business activities & info Business Processes description of how a business pursues its objectives Process Maps: simple flow charts of high-level activities Process Descriptions: flow charts with more information (not enough for full realisation) Process Model: flow charts with enough information for analysis, simulation, execution BPMN is flexible to handle all variants of BP to understand the business processes of the organisation to innovate

8 BPMN Essentials Activities No Include Transaction History Events Events Receive Credit Report Approval Yes Include Standard Text Approve? Gateway Sequence Flows Logical process flow, finite start and end points Diamond decision point? yes/no paths for an extra step Rounded boxes must therefore do stuff

9 BPMN Essentials Flow Objects Connectors Artifacts Events Activities Sequence Flow Data Object «Pool» Message Flow Text Annotation Gateways Association «Group» «Pool» «Lane» «Lane»

10 BPMN Essentials -Activities Task Sub-Process BPMN Activity Work performed within a business process Atomic or composite Used to model Tasks, Sub-processes Can iterate (loop) Looped Task

11 BPMN Essentials -Activities Sub-Processes Hierarchical process development Sub-Process Have an inner working model Collapse/expand to show and hide finer level of detail Receive Credit Report Approval Approve? No Yes Include Transaction History Include Standard Text Embedded, independent, reusable

12 BPMN Essentials -Events Start Intermediate Events Something that happens in a process Affect the flow of a process Have a trigger or result Boundary determines the type of event End

13 BPMN Essentials -Events Start Event Beginning of a process Different triggers that start the process None Start Event Undefined trigger to start of process Entry point to a Sub Process None Message Timer Error Rule Link Terminate

14 BPMN Essentials -Events Intermediate Event Occur after a process has started, but before it ends Placed in the normal process flow or attached to boundary of an activity None Message Timer Error Rule Link Terminate

15 BPMN Essentials -Events End Event End of a process Results denote the final step in the process None Message Timer Error Rule Link Terminate

16 BPMN Essentials -Gateways Exclusive (Data) Exclusive (Event) Inclusive Gateways Controls sequence flow within a process at a point of divergence or convergence Gateways split and merge flows Complex Parallel

17 BPMN Essentials -Gateways No Send Payment Problem Exclusive Gateway Activity1 Payment ok? No, Exceeded Retry Cancel Order A Decision control point Only one outgoing path selected Yes Send Confirmation Decision mechanisms: Data using condition expressions (first affirmative) Activity1 Payment ok? No Send Cancel Send Invoice Event receiving alternate messages (first received) Yes Send Reminder 3 Days

18 BPMN Essentials -Gateways Doc A Prepare Document A Activity1 Documents Required? Doc B Prepare Document B Collate Documents Doc C Prepare Document C Inclusive Gateway More than one outcome possible Corresponding merge gateway

19 BPMN Essentials -Gateways Post Results to Web Prepare Results Results Call Press Conference SMS Results Parallel Gateway Multiple parallel paths are executed No causality on branches Also used as a synchronisation point

20 BPMN Essentials -Gateways Complex Gateway Decision with advanced definitions of behaviour Sector 1 Report Activity1 Review Breach Reports Sector 2 Report Sector 3 Report

21 BPMN Essentials -Artifacts Data Object «Group» Artifacts Convey information beyond the process itself Data Objects, Groups, Annotations Extension Point for BPMN Not part of the process Flow

22 BPMN Essentials -Artifacts Data Object «Group» Data Object Used to show use of objects in Process Data Inputs, Outputs Document capturing document state within process Text Annotation Group Callout for textual comment Annotation that highlights key aspects of process

23 BPMN Essentials -Swimlanes Swimlanes Partition and organise activities Identify participants and roles Pools Participants, Parties, Business Role Interaction as flow of messages Process fully contained within Pool «Pool» Lanes Sub partitions within Pool Organisation roles Sequence and Message interaction «Pool» «Lane» «Lane»

24 BPMN Essentials -Connectors BPMN Connectors Sequence Flow Order that activities are performed Between Events, Activities, Gateways Message Flow Flow of messages between two entities Between Participants Association Associate data, information, artifacts with entities NOT a UML Association Connectors Sequence Flow Message Flow Association

25 Orchestration and Choreography Orchestration Defines processes internal to a specific participant, organisation Private processes within pool (and between lanes) Sequence Flows and Message Flows Choreography Defines interactions between two or more participants, organisations, B2B, global processes Public exchange of messages between pools in a collaboration Message Flows only

26 Orchestration and Choreography «Pool» Customer «Pool» Loan Broker «Pool» LoanServ icesorg ReceiveRequest CheckAmount AssessLoanRisk bpel:getvariabledata('loanrequestmessage', 'amount')>=10000 CheckAssessment bpel:getvariabledata('riskassessmentmessage', 'level')>='low' AssignYes ApproveLoan ReplyResult

27 BPMN Examples BPMN By Example

28 Examples Shipment Process

29 Examples The Pizza Collaboration «Pool» Pizza Customer «Pool» Pizza Vendor Pizza Order Pizza Pizza whereabouts Query Pizza whereabouts Response Money Receipt

30 Examples The Pizza Collaboration

31 Examples The Pizza Collaboration

32 Examples The Pizza Collaboration

33 Wrap Up BPMN in this tutorial A graphical modelling language for the purpose of process modelling General execution, Machine execution Events, Activities, Gateways, Connectors, Pools, Lanes Orchestration WITHIN Pool, Choreography BETWEEN Pools Examples BPMN 2.0 Formal metamodel, concrete syntax XMI interchange specification UML Profile for BPMN (initial submissions due March 2010) Vendors 73 Registered implementations (4 planned) 9 Service providers
