A First-Order Logic verification framework for communication-parametric and time-aware BPMN collaborations

作者:

Highlights:

• A direct formal semantics for a subset of BPMN, including sub-processes, communication and time constructs.

• Automated verification of intra-organization workflows and inter-organization collaborations.

• Seven models for communication, two models for time.

• Communication models and properties of interest are easily extensible.

• Open source and freely available tools and model repository.
