Chair or BPMN MIWG: Denis Gagne from Trisotech

Purpose

The purpose of the BPMN MIWG is to support, facilitate, and promote the interchange of BPMN Models.

Mandate

  • Facilitate and demonstrate BPMN Model Interchange amongst tools that implement the standard
    • Define various test cases that address both breadth and depth of BPMN Model Interchange taking into consideration the various defined conformance classes of the BPMN standard (Initial scope will be limited to the Process Modeling Conformance Class and its sub-classes)
  • Resolve vendors’ misinterpretation of the specification that inhibit BPMN Model Interchange
    • Guide and support vendor into their implementations of the standard
  • Identify and report defects that break BPMN Model Interchange
    • Identify and report BPMN specification Model Interchange issues to the BPMN RTF for resolution
  • Establish a BPMN Model Interchange demonstration infrastructure to support the above, including:
    • Demonstration Processes,
    • Guidelines, and
    • Validation tools.

Guiding Principles

  • Transparency
  • Inclusion
  • Collaboration
  • Openness

Press Kit for the event

Despite wide adoption of the BPMN notation, smooth BPMN model interchange between tools still poses a problem. The BPMN Model Interchange Working Group (MIWG) is an official OMG working body with the mandate to support, facilitate and promote the interchange of BPMN Models. This capability demonstration will showcase the iterative elaboration and interchange of a BPMN model using tools from various leading BPMN vendors.
